Dee Devlin posts Christmas message after announcing she is pregnant

Dee Devlin took to social media this afternoon to wish all her followers a happy Christmas.

Dee and Conor McGregor announced on Christmas Eve that they are expecting their third child in 2021.

The UFC star shared a snap of his family on Instagram as he posed with his fiancee and their two children Conor and Croia as the youngsters held a picture of an ultrasound scan showing the new addition to the family.

The Notorious wrote: "Happy Christmas everyone, from my family to yours.

"So much to look forward to in 2021."

Sharing McGregor's post, Dee commented: "Merry Christmas! ❤"

It comes as the Dubliner is gearing up for his hugely-anticipated UFC rematch with American Dustin Poirier.

And McGregor's striking coach claims his fighter is in the best shape he has ever been in ahead of the bout.

The Notorious faces the American next month almost exactly a year after his 40-second demolition of Donald Cerrone.

Owen Roddy has been working with McGregor ahead of the bout and recently travelled to a training camp in Portugal as part of the former two-weight champion's team.

McGregor defeated Poirier in a featherweight bout six years ago and Roddy admits the 'Diamond' has improved since then, but believes the Dubliner has improved even more.

Roddy told The MMA Bash: "I think Poirier's improved an awful lot since that first fight.

"I think Conor has improved, you know, more, since then as well.

"They're definitely better fighters than they were when they fought each other but Conor is still the better fighter. I just think he's too precise.

"Poirier is skillful, he's got good hands and he's tough and durable, and he sets a good pace but I just don't see where he beats Conor

"Conor's just too good everywhere, too precise, and too clinical with his striking."
