Conor McGregor and his fiancée Dee Devlin have broken their silence after photographs emerged of the Irishman appearing to 'kiss' another woman.
McGregor, who turns 37 today (July 14), has been in the news for the wrong reasons in recent times.
Last month, the former two-weight UFC champion became embroiled in a physical altercation with another man in an Ibiza nightclub and was widely condemned for punching the club goer.
This came just months after the Irishman was found liable for the assault of Nikita Hand in a Dublin hotel six years ago, following a lengthy civil court case in the Republic of Ireland back in November 2024.

On Sunday (July 13), the Sun reported that the Irishman had been spotted ‘kissing a mystery woman’ on a beach despite being engaged to Devlin, his partner for the last 16 years.
Then, on Monday, Devlin broke her silence with a message to McGregor on social media. However, she did not reference the supposed kiss and instead wished McGregor a happy birthday.
"Happy Birthday to the person who always keeps Dee entertained and makes her smile,” Devlin wrote alongside a series of photographs of the pair.

The couple, who have four children together, have been engaged since 2020, having met as teenagers back in 2008.
Famously, Devlin has supported McGregor through the highs and lows of his mixed martial arts career and life, as the 37-year-old went from being jobless to a multi-millionaire and the biggest star in the UFC in a matter of years.
Speaking about Devlin in 2015, McGregor said: “My girlfriend has been there since the start.
“She has helped me throughout this career. If it wasn’t for her, I probably wouldn’t be where I am today.

“So definitely, I love to spoil her. She does not work anymore; I hired her for the business. She works for me now and collects the cheques.
“My girlfriend worked very hard throughout the years and stuck by me when I had essentially absolutely nothing. I only had a dream that I was telling her.
“For me to be able to take her out of work, give her everything she’s ever wanted and to travel the world with her fills me with pride. It keeps me going. We’ve been together a long time. She’s been through it all with me.”
Conor McGregor breaks silence
McGregor broke his silence on social media just hours after the photographs of him appearing to 'kiss' another woman emerged, but he did not address the situation.

He wrote on X: “I will drag Taoiseach of house and home if the greater public of Ireland’s wishes (YOUR WISHES) are not met. Who’s the Taoiseach, it won’t matter. Ireland, PUT ME TO WORK! 7 years, I am yours. Vote McGregor.”
In a later post, he added: "Táim ag suil go bhfuil sen.sharon con cuir me ar an ballad.
"mcdowell 'please sir, can I have some more' when the major parties didn’t ring him. Nil sé sin maith go leor. Go dti Eireann!
"Vote me in! Put me to F***ING work. Is braith liom obair agus tá me go hiontach ag é. Éirennach uimhir haon is mise leis an obair! Beidh Mick(maybe mike) in ann cabhrú liom? Ma tá a cheann agus a chroí Éireannach? If not, then we will know."
