Hawk Tuah girl reveals messages from UFC fighter who has been messaging her 'all week'

A UFC fighter has been in the DM's of the 'Hawk Tuah' girl and "messaging all week", according to the woman herself.

The 21-year-old, real name Haliey Welch, became a huge meme and sensation after a viral interview on the street. Welch, who was a student at the time, was asked by Tim & Dee TV, "What’s one move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time?”

'She proceeded to explain that, "You gotta give ’em that ‘hawk tuah’ and spit on that thang" in her thick Southern accent and the virality of the interview propelled her into stardom.

Welch has her own podcast called 'Talk Tuah', with the YouTube channel boasting 171,000 subscribers and over 7 million views. She has a whole host of guests and recently sat down with best friends Brianna Chickenfry and Grace O’Malley.

And on the episode, Welch revealed that UFC star Sean O'Malley has been in her DMs.

Welch said: "You said UFC fighter, right? What is that fella's name that has been messaging me all week? O'Malley boy? He has a kid, don't he?

When O'Malley realised it was her namesake Suga Sean, she asked Welch about the content of the DMs.

But she was quick to stress that there was nothing dodgy about the messages, adding: "He's so nice, he's just like, 'What are you doing?'. When he first DM'd me I had like five missed calls from him on Instagram - I didn't even know you could do that!".

O'Malley was the UFC bantamweight champion until recently, having beaten Aljamain Sterling to take the strap. He beat Marlon Vera in his first defence before losing to Merab Dvalishvili via unanimous decision in September at UFC 306 at the Sphere in Las Vegas.

The 30-year-old competed with a torn labrum after suffering an injury in his training camp.
