Dee Devlin posts on social media for first time since McGregor punch incident
Dee Devlin has taken to social media for the first time since Conor McGregor was involved in an alleged incident at a nightclub in Ibiza. The UFC star's fiancée shared a number of photos on her Instagram story that McGregor had posted on his own social media account. They show the couple and their children enjoying the sunshine on holiday. Some of the images show them enjoying a meal, while others show them making their way to McGregor's luxury yacht, which is understood to be currently off the coast of Majorca, where the Dubliner met Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers in recent days. Taking to social media on Friday evening, McGregor shared a snap of himself with the Hoops boss, who was holding a baby in the picture. "LEGENDARY DOUBLE CHAMP LINK UP! NEXT YEAR, TREBLE! GOD IS GREAT! @CelticFC @ufc Congrats to the Rodgers family on the new addition to their family," McGregor wrote. Another image showed the couple cycling on bikes, while Devlin was all smiles as she enjoyed a glass of red wine. The Sun released footage during the week that allegedly showed the Dubliner appearing to peer down to address an unidentified man in the middle of the dancefloor at Pacha nightclub. Moments later, the former two-weight UFC champion appeared to throw two punches. The man hit the deck, and eyewitnesses have since come forward to have their say on the alleged incident. One person - who saw the incident unfold - claimed there did not appear to be any consequences for McGregor. "The guy seemed to fall to the floor, and his mates came to pick him up and get him away," he told The Sun. "There [didn't appear to be any] consequences for Conor." Another said: "About five people fell to the floor as the guy stumbled back. It was a bit like bowling pins, but the guy was really shaken." They added: "About a minute later, the bouncers came and got him on the back and took him out of the club." "It was right before close anyway," they continued. "There was no messing around; they just removed him. Conor left through the garden a bit later; he didn't look very happy." The incident occurred just hours after McGregor was spotted on the island with Katie Price. The MMA superstar was seen in red shorts, a cap, and sunglasses, enjoying a cigar. Price shared an Instagram photo with McGregor with the caption: "You legend," while McGregor gave her a nod in his story, writing: "Forever." Spurs' player Kevin Danso also posted a picture with the former featherweight and lightweight UFC champion on his social media. McGregor later updated his social media, writing on X: "You won't speak bad about my country and its people and that's ever. Vote McGregor." He later showed off some snaps on Instagram, including one with a group of lads and another where he's standing under a picture of Al Pacino from the famed 1983 film Scarface. This wasn't McGregor's first rowdy incident at an Ibiza shindig. Back when he turned 34, three years ago, he stomped on a punter's hat after it was thrown to him for an autograph. McGregor gave the person a mock thumbs up and then hurled jibes their way. McGregor last stepped into the Octagon in 2021 for a tussle with Dustin Poirier, his longstanding adversary. He eyed a UFC comeback against Michael Chandler last year but injuries obtained during training put a pin in those plans. It's still uncertain whether he'll return to competitive action. However, he's been dropping hints about a potential comeback by posting numerous training videos in recent weeks.
