Conor McGregor caught up in nude pic scandal after Azealia Banks leak
The former UFC champion sent her nudes, which she proceeded to post on the platform publicly. She further accused him of threatening her not to tell anybody.
Leaking McGregor's pics, she wrote on X: 'How you gonna send a b**ch a some crooked d**k pics then threaten her not to tell. @TheNotoriousMMA n**ga do you know who the f**k I am?'
She further mocked the MMA fighter and wrote: 'Honey…… ain't u trying to be the president of Ireland what is it giving fam?" She further shared another screenshot where she claimed that McGregor woke up early and deleted his pictures from her chat.
However, she revealed the threat part in the chat, in which McGregor said: 'Don't be a rat cos all rats get caught.'
In another tweet, she once again mocked the Dubliner's announcement to run for Irish presidency, sharing, 'Conor McGregor 4 President'.
A spokesman for McGregor has been contacted for comment.
Banks' post against McGregor also coincides with the UFC lightweight champion's 37th birthday, which saw tributes from his fiancée and mother of four, Dee Devlin. It comes as pictures were obtained of the controversial star cosying up to a mystery woman on the beach in Florida in front of a crowd.
The ex-UFC champ was caught on camera getting up close and personal with a bikini-clad lady on a Fort Lauderdale beach over the weekend. In the images seen by the Irish Mirror, McGregor put his hand on her thigh, had his arm slung over her shoulder, and seemingly planted a kiss on her lips.
His fiancée, Devlin, posted on social media for the first time since the photos surfaced. But she made no mention of them in her upload, instead celebrating McGregor's 37th birthday on Monday.
She reposted a tribute from a fan page on her Instagram story that said: "Happy Birthday to the person who always keeps Dee entertained and makes her smile." The post included a montage of the couple in their joyous moments. The pair have been an item for 16 years, got engaged in 2020, and have four kids together – sons Conor Jr, eight, Rian, four, Mack, one, and their daughter Croia, six.
Their partnership has weathered its fair share of storms, notably McGregor's civil rape case. Last November, a High Court civil jury found him civilly liable for assaulting Nikita Hand. He faced allegations of "brutally raping and battering" Ms Hand at a hotel in south Dublin back in November 2018. McGregor maintained that their sexual interactions at the Beacon Hotel were consensual.
The jury sided with her, with €248,603.60 in damages awarded. McGregor has mounted an appeal against the ruling that got underway earlier this month.
Once again standing united with McGregor as they exited the High Court last year, Devlin later expressed her unwavering support on social media: "My man and I have created a beautiful life together. I love him, I trust him and I BELIEVE HIM!"Our four beautiful children whose smiling faces and happy hearts are testimony to the man he is and who we are! No one is entitled to comment on our relationship - we trust one another and love one another. Nothing or nobody will change that. Our family stands strong!"
McGregor has now been absent from the UFC for over four years. His last fight, a second successive defeat to Dustin Poirier in July 2021, saw him break his leg.
He has teased fans with talks of a comeback several times since, yet his anticipated June 2024 clash with Michael Chandler was scrapped and wasn't rescheduled.

'It's a new awakening in Ireland': Manchán Magan on his new TV series
There's a moment towards the start of Manchán Magan's inspiring two-part documentary, Listen to the Land Speak, in which – great etymologist that he is – he addresses his name, Manchán, which means 'little monk'. By his own admission, he reeks of the priesthood. 'Just take one look at me,' he says, 'I was obviously a priest in every single incarnation until this one. I will always find a little cell, the smallest hole that I can be in to write or to live in. Manchán was originally a pagan name, Mongán. He was the son of Manannán mac Lir. It had been a pagan deity, which was taken over during Christianity.' Magan's latest gospel, which underpins the documentary, and the award-winning book its based on, examines the ancient, binding ties the Irish landscape, including its rivers, mountains and caves, has with the stories and myths we tell ourselves; and what he argues is a yearning at large – perhaps accelerated during the Covid pandemic lockdowns – to reconnect with nature. 'Is it true to say that our myths and stories are linked to the land?' wonders Magan. 'If we go out into the land, do we get to understand the stories? Can we unpack the insights and wisdom in them in a more meaningful way? I was aware of that as a concept from the songlines in Australia, from reading about Apache elders in New Mexico, or the work I'm doing with Cree elders in Edmonton and the Tsleil-Waututh in Vancouver, Canada. 'They've great tales and legends. When they go out on the land, they tell them in place. The land becomes alive. You suddenly see deeper levels of wisdom contained in the stories. A great example in Ireland is the Keash Caves. When I went up there with Marion Dowd, the expert on caves from University of Sligo, she unpacked it, and it wasn't academic anymore. 'Suddenly, you see these caves as an entrance way to the other world and hown, say, the goddess Anu, or Áine, is this land sovereignty; she's a representative of pregnancy and the fruitfulness of the land. She's this abundant, life-giving force. Lough Gur is the classic example, how her pregnant belly is there, rising up from the lake in Lough Gur. Her breasts are down the road in the Paps of Anu. It's all there." Manchán Magan on Listen To The Land Speak. Magan recalls his days as a backpacker in Peru or Bolivia, where he was shown goddesses in the landscape, etched out. "I didn't think I would find the same in this modern island on the edge of Europe,' he says. Magan's own personal journey, bubbling away in the background of the documentary, puts a different hue on the story he tells. Towards the start of filming in 2023, he was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. In his own words, it's 'a beautiful irony' that he has spent years as a writer and storyteller focused on healing, convincing people that ancient Irish culture and the Irish language can be saved, that it's not dying, while at the same time his oncologist is telling him that his cancer is, ultimately, incurable. He's finished a year of hormone treatment and radiation and feels 'brilliant' now, but awareness of his mortality is addressed in the documentary. 'I talked about my cancer a few times in the documentary, but the place that really got me was on Inis Mór,' he says. 'I'm standing in the middle of a graveyard beside a church and the church is being swallowed up by the sands and the land. It was hard not to be aware, 'Oh, wait, we are all here for the shortest possible time.' 'I've always had that connection with the spirit world since I was a young child. That's always meant more to me, it's been more real to me than reality. I could slip away from this earth at any time, all too easy. I don't have kids depending on me so it's easy for me to say that.' Listen to the Land Speak is stunning to watch, full of dramatic, star-soaked cinematography. Ireland has rarely looked so beautiful. Filmed over four seasons, it concludes with a raucous Samhain parade in Clonakilty, Co Cork, a time to celebrate the wildness in us, as winter creeps in. Magan ends on a hopeful note. Even though darkness is looming, and people will die over winter, there's always a glimmer ahead. At some point, the days will get longer, and the grass will grow again. 'The land in Ireland is alive,' he says. 'It wants to teach us things. They call the Burren 'the learning landscape'. The landscape is a manuscript of old knowledge about how to connect with woodlands, rivers and animals, and how all of those are important. They're connected with the rising of the sun, the seasons, the equinox, and the solstice. All of that is everywhere you look – in the place names, in the landscape itself and the stories. It wants to communicate with us. I feel that strongly. 'When I speak with elders from other cultures, they say the same. They say we've lost so much of our old songs, our stories, our knowledge, but it's still in the landscape. All we need to do is go out and walk it, and redo the old rituals, even in an awkward way. It somehow sparks ancestral resonance inside of us and makes us feel better. Even if that's just walking, cycling, hiking or swimming, going back out into the landscape somehow nourishes us.' The first episode of Listen to the Land Speak is on RTÉ One, Thursday, July 17 at 10.10pm Ireland is a woman Manchán Magan presenter of Listen to the Land Speak. Picture: INPHO/James Crombie One of the striking aspects of Listen to the Land Speak is the prominent role that women – goddesses rivalling the best of Greek or Norse mythology – play in Irish identity. There's St Brigid, of course, patron saint of childbirth and brewing – she once brewed a lake of beer; the Cailleach, a hag who shaped Ireland's mountains, rivers and landscape; and Áine, a goddess of fertility, invoked by farmers hungry for a good harvest, who, it was said in the nineteenth century, used to lure the best musicians from around the county to her palace underwater in Lough Gur, Co Limerick. 'It's a new awakening in Ireland,' says Magan. 'For a long time, we thought Ireland was about Cú Chulainn and Finn McCool. Pádraig Pearse was very keen on that – the only way to keep [ancient Irish] culture alive was by fighting, by blood sacrifice. His time emphasised the male warrior – to go out and fight for freedom. Once we had that, then we were able to look deeper into our stories and that's what myths do. A myth is not a single narrative at a particular place. That's the beauty of myths – they change for each year. 'So, around the world, this idea of a more sensitive consciousness, a more Earth-based idea, if you were using naff language you'd call it the age of Aquarius, is rising again. It is only natural cultures will remember that they did once have a more female-centric, matriarchal culture. It's happening in Ireland, and it's happening in indigenous cultures around the world.'
