McGregor has taken to social media for the first time since he was pictured getting close to a mystery woman in Florida - but the UFC legend didn't address the incident
Conor McGregor has broken his social media silence following 24 hours of drama which saw him photographed kissing a mystery woman before naked photos allegedly showing him lifting weights with his penis were leaked.
The former two-weight UFC champion was caught on camera enjoying himself at a Florida beach on Sunday, where he was spotted jet skiing before cuddling up to an unknown dark-haired woman - who was not his long-term partner Dee Devlin.
‌
The 37-year-old was photographed laying out a towel for the mystery lady before wrapping his arm around her shoulders, with The Sun reporting the 'Notorious' appeared to relish the attention from female admirers nearby.
‌
The explosive images quickly went viral across social media before McGregor was in the spotlight again when rapper Azealia Banks took to social media to post photos which allegedly showed a naked McGregor lifting weights with his penis. And McGregor later took to social media himself to make his first comments since the drama.
In a post uploaded to social media, the UFC legend opted AGAINST addressing the incident and instead wished himself a happy birthday. Taking X - formerly known as Twitter - he wrote: "Happy birthday to me," reports All Out Fighting.
McGregor celebrated turning 37 on Monday amid the fresh scandals, though his long-standing fiancee Dee appears to be standing by her man despite the compromising photographs. Devlin and McGregor, who have been engaged since 2020, are proud parents to four children.
‌
The couple first crossed paths as teenagers in a nightclub, and Devlin has been a constant support throughout McGregor's MMA career. Following McGregor's recent controversy, his fiancee shared a fan account's birthday message on social media that said: "Happy Birthday to the person who always keeps Dee entertained and makes her smile." She then posted a series of photos of herself with McGregor.
Last year, four years into their engagement, McGregor opened up about their wedding plans, expressing his eagerness to tie the knot with Devlin. He said: "My lady is my long-time lady," and continued, "We are set to get married soon, we are just trying to find a location. I am ready to go; we are just trying to get a location."
‌
"Is it at home? I'd like for it to be at home. We are deciding on a location. Hopefully, we get the marriage done, and that is what I'm looking forward to. These are the decisions we have. I go between do we want an extreme and extravagant. It will be extravagant and I will spare no cost for sure for my lady and my family but is it invite everyone or is it private, these are the things we are trying to figure out. We are private people but we wouldn't like to do it and think we should have done it a bit bigger. So we are in decision mode at moment, but let's see, things are good. But that's my lady all the way, the highs or lows before all of this."
When is Conor McGregor's next fight?
McGregor has been out of action since his defeat to Dustin Poirier in 2021. His anticipated bout with ex-Bellator champ Michael Chandler last year was scrapped due to an injury he sustained while training. The Irish fighter's last victory inside the octagon was against Donald Cerrone at welterweight in 2020. Despite a lengthy hiatus, the 37-year-old has now declared that he plans to make a return to the UFC at their White House event next year.
Many fans had lost faith in McGregor's return to mixed martial arts, but the Dubliner has hinted at yet another comeback. At a press conference for a Bare Knuckle FC event, where McGregor holds co-ownership, he dropped a bombshell announcement. He stated: "It's looking like I'm headed to the Oval Office again. That's where I'm headed next." The crowd responded to his revelation with enthusiastic applause.
