Conor McGregor's mother shows off luxury convertible car as she says 'it's great to be rich'

Conor McGregor has shared a video of his mother Margaret showing off a luxury convertible car.

In the clip, which apperars to have been filmed in Dublin, Margaret can be seen putting the roof up on the car as she says "it's great to have plenty of money, it's great to be rich".

The video was recorded by a friend of the UFC star's mum, who can be heard saying "look what I have to put up with Conor. It's not even funny".

The former two-weight champion paid tribute to his mother last year after she came through a challenging time "with flying colours".

He said: "I have been very proud of my mother recently and she was actually going through some things and she came through it with flying colours and now she's like a completely new woman.

"When I see this, my mother is at the top, seeing her correct, she wasn't telling me: 'Conor, do this, do that' because that will make you almost rebel against it.

In an interview with Parimatch, he added: "What she did was she led by example. I saw my mother in the great light she was in and I was in awe of it.

"I was like 'I'm gonna do that. I want to get to that stage. I want to be in this position

"And that motivated me to go and correct myself."

McGregor is still in America with his finacee Dee Devlin and their three children, but he is set to head to Italy with his familuy this week for his son Rian's christening and to pick up a new Lamborghini yacht.
