How many children does UFC fighting star Conor McGregor have? All you need to know about family with Dee Devlin

Conor McGregor is currently busy preparing for his trilogy fight against Dustin Poirier away from his family.

The Notorious has been training for the fight which will take place on July 10 in the hopes for a different outcome after he lost to the American fighter earlier this year.

McGregor has said he decided to prepare for this fight away from his family as “Fights and boppies and cuddles is a hard one to balance.” As he said he is entering the fight as a “wild dog”.

As all eyes will be on McGregor over the coming days, we take a look at what his family life with finance Dee Devlin is like.

The couple are proud parents to three children, son Conor Jr (4), daughter Croía (2) and newborn baby Rían who was born in May.

Dee and Conor welcomed their first child together on May 5, 2017.

Conor Jack McGregor was born just months before McGregor’s historic boxing fight with Floyd Mayweather in Las Vegas.

On January 4, 2019, Dee gave birth to the couple's only daughter Croía.

Conor announced the birth of his daughter by posting a picture of him leaving the hospital with his two children.

In the post, Conor paid tribute to Dee as he said, “Heading home with my two healthy babies and an energised and healthy SuperMam.”

The couple’s third child, Rían McGregor, was born in May of this year.

McGregor again took to social media to share the good news with his fans.

He said, “The McGregor clan is now a family of 5.

“Healthy baby boy delivered.

“Baby and Mammy Wonder Woman are doing great.

“God I thank you for everything you give to me and my family in this world.

“My new born son, Rían McGregor.”

Devlin and McGregor have been together since 2008 when Conor was 19 years old.

It is safe to say that Dee has supported Conor in pursuing his dreams and has been there to watch him become a success both inside and out of the octagon.

McGregor spotted the Walkinstown native in a nightclub not long after he had quit his job as an apprentice plumber to pursue a career in mixed martial arts (MMA).

As McGregor’s career began to take off Dee made the decision to give up her job so that she could support Conor and travel with him.

McGregor has often said that Dee has been a huge part of his success.

The couple have been engaged for almost a year as they announced the news on August 8, 2020.
