Conor McGregor breaks silence after court loss claims Nikita Hand begged for secret $3 million deal
Conor McGregor breaks silence after court loss claims Nikita Hand begged for secret 3 million deal (Image Via Google) Conor McGregor finally broke the silence. The UFC star has spoken out after his appeal was rejected. This appeal was about a civil trial from late 2024 where a jury said he sexually assaulted Nikita Hand. He says he did nothing wrong. He says never offered any deal, and that she and her team tried to settle. He strongly denies a €1 million rumour and says when she was caught lying under oath, her lawyers then asked him for €3 million. He refused. This new statement comes just after the court decision on July 31, 2025. Conor McGregor denies €1m offer, claims Nikita Hand's team sought €3m after court lie On July 31, 2025 in Dublin, Ireland's Court of Appeal denied McGregor's appeal in full. He was previously ordered in November 2024 to pay nearly €250,000 to Nikita Hand, who accused him of rape in December 2018 at a hotel penthouse. The judges ruled he must still pay damages and legal fees. McGregor, 36, denied the allegation and said the encounter was fully consensual. He also argued that jury instructions and his 'no comment' police interview responses were wrongly handled but the court found no errors. Hand, present at the hearing, said: 'You deserve to be heard … Today I can finally move on and try to heal'. Conor McGregor's statement on settlement and lies McGregor issued a detailed statement on X (formerly Twitter) the same day. He said: 'I offered this person, or her team, nothing! It was always them attempting to seek compensation to settle.' 'I believe they leaked press stories of a €1 million offer being refused. All of that was lies!' He added that when Nikita Hand was 'caught in a lie under oath,' her legal team approached his side and asked if he would pay €3 million to end the case before he had chance to respond. He said he replied: 'No chance.' He wrote: 'The truth will set you free. I go forward where I know the truth'. McGregor was not in court that day, he says he was on his yacht off the coast of Italy.

Was K-pop idol Wonhee a bully at school? ILLIT fans unravel the truth
Agencies ILLIT's Wonhee Faces Backlash Over Alleged Bullying: False Claims, Cultural Deception, and HYBE's Troubled Past HYBE's emerging girl group, ILLIT, recently found itself at the center of a brewing controversy that stirred both local and international K-pop fans. The issue began when one of the group's members, Wonhee, was targeted by an online accusation that quickly gained traction across social media platforms. The claims alleged that Wonhee had repeatedly bullied a fellow student during her school years. These assertions came to light through a now-viral post uploaded on X (formerly known as Twitter).The post, written in grammatically flawed Korean, claimed to share the real story behind Wonhee's public persona. The author stated that they had attended school alongside Wonhee and were subjected to persistent bullying by her. The tone of the message conveyed emotional distress and called on others to see through what the accuser described as a false image of the K-pop the shocking nature of the accusation, South Korean netizens swiftly detected irregularities in the way the story was presented. It wasn't necessarily the content of the bullying claims that raised suspicions, but rather the awkward and inconsistent Korean language used in the post. Native speakers noted that certain sentence structures and vocabulary choices were odd and unnatural, hinting at a possible non-Korean origin. — prodgselle (@prodgselle) As the post continued to circulate, curious users began looking into the background of the person making the claims. Through digital sleuthing and cross-referencing the accuser's activity on other platforms, it was uncovered that the person was, in fact, not Korean. They were eventually identified as an Indonesian K-pop enthusiast and an outspoken fan of BLACKPINK, as per a Koreaboo report. This discovery shifted public sentiment dramatically. Once the revelation was made, the individual was accused of 'Korean-baiting'—a "practice in which someone mimics Korean identity or uses poorly translated Korean in an attempt to gain credibility in K-pop communities. The backlash was swift and intense, as many fans and commentators condemned the deliberate attempt to mislead others by exploiting cultural incident has reignited broader concerns within the K-pop fandom about how quickly unverified allegations can spiral out of control, especially when masked with cultural appropriation or identity deception. Misinformation, especially in the digital age, travels fast and can cause real harm to idols' reputations and careers even before the truth is this isn't the first time a member of a HYBE girl group has come under fire for alleged bullying. In 2022, a similar situation unfolded with Garam, who was one of the original members of HYBE's debut girl group, LE SSERAFIM. At the time, Garam faced a barrage of accusations, including bullying, engaging in underage drinking and smoking, and involvement in school-related HYBE stood by Garam and moved forward with her inclusion in the group's debut, which took place in May 2022. However, the situation escalated when an individual came forward with legal representation and produced documents reportedly confirming that disciplinary actions had been taken against Garam during her school years. The seriousness of the documents lent credibility to the accusations, prompting a public relations crisis for the response, HYBE issued a statement defending Garam and disputing the validity of the evidence. Nonetheless, the controversy continued to gain momentum. The mounting pressure ultimately led to Garam's removal from the group in July 2022, just two months after their debut. LE SSERAFIM then reorganized as a five-member unit and made their first comeback without her in October of the same year with their release ANTI-FRAGILE. Since parting ways with HYBE, Garam has kept a low public profile. She completed her studies and graduated from the School of Performing Arts Seoul (SOPA) in May 2023, according to . Additionally, it was revealed that she had been accepted into the acting department of Dongguk University, a well-respected institution in South Korea known for producing notable performers. These recurring controversies underline the complex intersection of fame, fandom, and accountability in the world of K-pop. While bullying is a serious issue that deserves attention and action when verified, the weaponization of false claims—especially when driven by fan rivalries or disguised identities—poses its own set of ethical concerns. As the global influence of K-pop continues to grow, so too does the responsibility of fans and companies to handle such matters with transparency, integrity, and sensitivity.
