The couple dressed up for dinner However, just hours later Azealia Banks shared alleged nude photos of Conor that she claims he had sent her and also claimed that he threatened her not to share them. Dee has been a key player in the MMA star's story, supporting him when he was jobless and focused on making it as a professional fighter. After leaving school at 15, she held down several jobs and worked as a waitress and a model before she met McGregor in 2008, when she was working in a nightclub. The couple moved in to McGregor's parents' attic when paying rent was a challenge. Once the UFC fighter's career began to take off, she began working on his team.

Dee was present in court during McGregor's trial in 2024, when he lost his civil rape trial. She also attacked the character of victim Nikita Hand in a series of messages on her Instagram stories. In the posts, she wrote: 'Conor and I dealt with these issues privately many years ago, as should be done in a relationship and we have come out stronger than ever. 'We have four beautiful children now whose smiling faces and happy hearts are a testament to who he is and who we are!' We recently revealed how Devlin has shared in more than €1m in fees paid to directors of Conor McGregor's management company over three years. Having spent a decade working to promote her fiancé's brand, the former model and influencer has reaped the rewards, sharing fees of €342,750 with two other directors in 2023, €351,184 in 2022 and €339,617 in 2021. The 37-year-old earned the fees as a director of McGregor Sports and Entertainment where she has been on the board for more than a decade, alongside McGregor's long-standing business partner, Alan Geraghty, who is also group CEO. The sizeable fees are a fraction of what Dee is believed to earn as a key member of McGregor's business team. She has served on the boards of most of his Irish-registered companies, including his online media business, TheMacLife. She was briefly director and secretary at Jemi Ventures Limited, the company that developed and runs The Black Forge Inn in Crumlin. She resigned from five McGregor companies in February last year and as company secretary of McGregor Sports and Entertainment. She remains a director of the company, which had a retained income of €506,475 in 2023 and 30 staff. McGregor is its sole shareholder.

Conor McGregor shows off drastic new look
Conor McGregor has taken to social media to show off a radical new hairstyle. 'The Notorious' has abandoned his buzzcut look - which he has sported for some time - and is now rocking a mohawk in the vein of UFC legend Chuck Liddell. Liddell was one of the biggest UFC stars during its first golden period in the early 2000's, and the 'Iceman' was one of the most recognisable stars in combat sports thanks to his unique hairstyle. Chuck Liddell punches Rich Franklin (Image: Getty) Captioning his Instagram post showing off his new barnet, McGregor wrote "WAR PIG 1. FIRST BLOOD OZ FOREVER, RIP!" That caption showed respect for the late Ozzy Osbourne, who passed away last week just weeks after performing with Black Sabbath for the final time at Villa Park in Birmingham. While Chuck Liddell officially retired for the second time after losing to Tito Ortiz in 2018, McGregor still claims to be on the lookout for a comeback fight. He was due to return against Michael Chandler last year, but a toe injury resulted in the fight being scrapped. These days, the former UFC champion spends more time teasing a run for the Irish presidency than a return to the Octagon. However, for multiple reasons, a crack at the Áras is very unlikely.

Conor McGregor's new look sparks concern among fans for UFC star
McGregor has not fought since his loss to Dustin Poirier in 2021, but has been training consistently over the past few months amid talk of a potential return to the cage Conor McGregor has sparked worry amongst supporters after flaunting a rather bizarre new haircut on social media. The former dual-weight UFC champion has not fought since his defeat to long-time rival Dustin Poirier in 2021. He was scheduled to stage a spectacular comeback against former Bellator world champion Michael Chandler last year, but withdrew from the contest after picking up an injury in training. While the Irishman has voiced his eagerness to return to the UFC, nothing has been confirmed officially as yet. The 37-year-old has been maintaining consistent training over recent months amid speculation of a potential octagon return. The 'Notorious' recently posted on social media once more, though not to display his punishing workout routine, but to unveil his latest trim. McGregor appeared to opt for the Chuck Liddell look as he is now sporting a mohawk. Several fans rushed to the comments section - with the UFC faithful left stunned by the Irishman's hairstyle selection, reports All Out Fighting. One supporter posted on X - previously Twitter - writing: "Just looking worse and worse everyday," whilst another remarked: "Dude is so done." A third user stated: "Something's wrong with McGregor." Another responded: "I can't look at him in the eyes anymore." One fan remarked: "I think the old Conor would be disgusted with who he is today," while another responded: "Yup, we've officially lost him." A seventh user posted: "He's never coming back." Fans were quick to compare his new look to that of Yondu Udonta - a character from Guardians of the Galaxy. Despite his unusual haircut, McGregor is preparing for a potential return to the cage soon and is scheduled to meet with UFC boss Dana White. It's been some time since they had formal discussions, but plans are in place for a meeting. Both will be in Italy in the next few days, planning a brief meeting where McGregor's comeback could be the main topic. White recently celebrated his 56th birthday. Given McGregor's close ties with the UFC chief, the Irishman sent the American a batch of his new cigars, set to be distributed worldwide in the coming weeks. Last week, White shared a video on his Instagram story of him holding the gift, writing: "Thank you @thenotoriousmma." He also hinted at something else, adding: "See you in Italy," suggesting that talks might be imminent. When is Conor McGregor's next fight? Recently, US President Donald Trump announced his plans to host a historic UFC event at the White House next year. Following this announcement, numerous fighters expressed their eagerness to participate in the historic card, including McGregor. The 37-year-old took to social media and posted: "Happy 4th of July, USA. Excited with President Trump announcing a UFC fight event at the White House! I would be honoured! Count me in! !" UFC boss Dana White also appears to support the idea after McGregor shared a conversation with him. The Irishman sent the UFC chief several voice notes, seemingly related to the proposed White House event, to which White responded: "I love it!". McGregor later reiterated his comments during a recent BKFC event, stating: "It's looking like I'm headed to the Oval Office again. That's where I'm headed next." White recently suggested that the 'Notorious' could fight alongside former heavyweight champion Jon Jones, who has just come out of retirement. "McGregor has gotten himself to a point where he is and will be, whether he stops fighting or not, one of the biggest superstars in sports, period. He's gotten to a level of success in his life where he has to, I think, be motivated by something," White said on the Full Send podcast.

A third joked: "Bruh it's over we in the Mohawk McGregor era." McGregor recently whisked his partner away to Sardinia to celebrate his birthday despite a cloud of controversy surrounding him. The Sun first reported how the multimillionaire fighter was caught appearing to kiss a mystery woman on a beach in Florida. Just days later, McGregor was spotted with the same woman enjoying a meal in Fort Lauderdale. Flames rip through Conor McGregor's pub in shocking footage - as firefighters rush to tackle blaze To make matters worse, American rapper Azealia Banks accused McGregor of sending her unsolicited nude photos. The alleged naked pictures were then posted online - and later deleted - by the New York performer. Just days later, McGregor was snapped packing on the PDA with Dee -who he proposed to in 2020 but is yet to marry - on a yacht in Italy. And she posted: "Happy Birthday to the person who always keeps Dee entertained and makes her smile." McGregor has not fought since July 2021 - when he brutally broke his leg against Dustin Poirier. A toe injury last June also forced McGregor out of his proposed comeback bout against Michael Chandler in Las Vegas. But McGregor has recently claimed he is back in the UFC's drug testing pool in a bid to set up a return. It's been controversies outside of the cage that have kept the former champion from fighting - with his UFC future in doubt. In December, McGregor was found liable for assault in a civil case against him dating back to 2018. 8 Dee Devlin and McGregor pose while on holiday Credit: INSTAGRAM @deedevlin1 8 McGregor took his partner and four kids away to Italy Credit: instagram The court heard how the professional fighter was said to have "brutally raped and battered" Nikita Hand in a penthouse at the Beacon Hotel. McGregor - who was ordered to pay Ms Hand about £206,000 in damages and pay her legal costs - has since sought an appeal. McGregor also punched a man in an Ibiza nightclub in June - with The Sun capturing the shocking moment. But the man - who works for Wayne Lineker - did not press charges. While away with his fiancee and four kids - Conor Jr, eight, Croia, six, Rian four and Mack, one - McGregor's pub was the target of an arson attack. Detectives believe a person doused the Black Forge Inn with a "flammable liquid" at 3am. It's understood the suspect used a flammable liquid at the front of the premises before setting it on fire and then fleeing the scene. Gardai are examining CCTV from the area in a bid to identify the suspect. It's the second time McGregor's pub has been targeted in an arson attack. In 2022, a petrol bomb was thrown at the bar but it failed to ignite. Following that incident, McGregor also installed bullet proof windows in the pub. 8 McGregor has not fought since 2021 Credit: Getty 8 In December, McGregor was found liable for assault in a civil case against him Credit: PA
