Conor McGregor's fiancée Dee Devlin launches furious online rant at his rape accuser and insists she...
Conor McGregor's fiancée supported him by passionately defending him on social media against the woman who accused the mixed martial arts star of sexual assault.
McGregor was found responsible for the rape of Nikita Hand, 35, by jurors at the High Court in Dublin. This incident took place in a hotel in Dublin on December 9, 2018. As a result, the judge ordered McGregor to pay Hand €250,000 in damages.
On Tuesday night, just four days after the trial ended, McGregor's partner Dee Devlin went on Instagram to launch a fierce criticism of Ms. Hand, stating, "I will make sure my sons know that women like you are out there."
In the messages, Ms. Devlin portrayed Ms. Hand as someone who enjoys partying and had shared 'suggestive photos of herself' with McGregor.
In a post on Instagram, she expressed: "Picture a woman who has her own partner and child, sending suggestive photos to another woman's partner, who also has a family and a baby on the way."
This woman says she knows me, but she still repeatedly sent messages and photos of herself to my partner? Seriously?
During a three-day binge, she kept sending her child messages with excuses about why she wasn't home on Saturday afternoon, Saturday night, Sunday morning, Sunday afternoon, and Sunday night, all the way into Monday morning.
The whole time, she's outside in the hotel parking lot, dancing with abandon. What kind of woman are you?!
Dee Devlin, Conor McGregor's partner of 15 years, was seen arriving with him, holding hands, for his civil court case. Following the event, she took to Instagram to share a lengthy post passionately defending him.
Sharing a family photo of McGregor and Devlin alongside two of their four kids, she expressed, "I adore him, I have faith in him, and I truly believe in him!"
She proceeded to deliver an intense diatribe directed at Ms. Hand, making several shocking accusations. She concluded her tirade by stating, "I will make sure my sons are aware that there are women like you in the world."
"I will make sure my sons know that there are women like you out there."
Ms. Devlin, McGregor's partner for 15 years, attended the hearings alongside him, holding his hand for support. When the verdict was announced, she was there to offer him comfort. She also mentioned that there is CCTV footage that could challenge Ms. Hand's account of the incident.
She stated, "CCTV never misrepresents the truth. I eagerly await the moment when everyone can see the video from that night and witness your behavior. You seemed completely carefree, enjoying yourself to the fullest."
"This is the actual proof—video footage captured without anyone realizing it at the time, which you strangely don't seem to recall?"
In my view, it appears that you are the one who is behaving inappropriately in the elevator. It seems to me that everyone is attempting to distance themselves from you.
Conor and I addressed these matters between ourselves years ago, as it's important to do in any relationship, and it has made us stronger than ever. We now have four wonderful children whose joyful smiles and happy spirits reflect the kind of people we are!
"Let those who are without fault be the first to throw a stone."
Mixed martial arts fighter McGregor and his partner Dee Devlin were spotted outside the High Court in Dublin on Friday, November 22.
The MMA fighter and Devlin have been a couple since 2008 and got engaged in 2020, but they haven't tied the knot yet.
Last week, McGregor faced a legal defeat in a civil lawsuit filed by 35-year-old Nikita Hand. She was awarded nearly €250,000 in damages after accusing him of raping her at a hotel in Dublin on December 9, 2018.
Last week, McGregor promised to challenge the High Court's ruling but also shared his feelings of 'regret' regarding the 'errors' he had made.
In a post on X, previously known as Twitter, he mentioned: "I understand that people are eager to hear from me, but I needed some time. I'm aware that I've made errors."
Six years ago, I regret that I ever engaged with her attempts to connect. I should have put an end to the whole situation.
I shouldn’t have betrayed the woman I care about more than anyone else. This is entirely my fault.
I deeply regret it, but everything that took place that night was agreed upon by everyone involved, and all the witnesses confirmed this while under oath.
"I've asked my legal team to challenge the ruling."
He said, "There's no turning back for me; it's all about looking ahead now. I'm incredibly thankful to my family, friends, and supporters from around the globe who have stood by me through thick and thin. That’s all there is to it. No more dwelling on the past. I’m heading back to the gym—the fight world is ready for me!"

Tesco, which has more than 3,400 locations throughout the UK, Asda, with over 1,200 stores in the region, and the prominent food delivery company Ocado have all declared that they will stop carrying Proper 12 whiskey and Forged Irish Stout.
The Irish fighter represented both brands, featuring prominently in ads and promotional content on various platforms. The Proper 12 whiskey brand is named after McGregor's residential area in Dublin.
A representative from Tesco told MailOnline, "We can confirm that Proper No 12 Whiskey will no longer be available for purchase at our Tesco locations or online."
A representative from Asda informed MailOnline: "I can confirm that Forged Irish Stout has been taken off the shelves both in stores and online, and we have notified the supplier about this decision."
An Ocado representative wasn't able to offer a comment, but they did confirm that the alcoholic drinks associated with McGregor are no longer available through their grocery delivery service and have been taken out of inventory as of today.
Reports indicate that prominent UK retailers are stepping away from the MMA star, following announcements from Irish distributors that they will also stop selling Proper 12 whiskey and Forged Irish Stout.

McGregor has faced allegations of sexual assault on four different occasions, but all of these claims were rejected by law enforcement. The most recent incident was during the NBA Finals in Miami last year.
In all instances, he has strongly insisted that he did nothing wrong. On at least one occasion, people close to him claimed that the accusations of sexual assault were false and motivated by financial reasons.
In this instance, a jury determined that McGregor attacked Ms. Hand at The Beacon hotel in Dublin in December 2018.
The jury at the High Court in Dublin took a day to discuss before concluding that McGregor had indeed attacked Ms. Hand.
After eight days of presenting evidence and another three days of hearing closing arguments and the judge's remarks, the jury, consisting of eight women and four men, took just over six hours to reach their decision before announcing the verdict.
As the decision was announced, McGregor nodded his head in disagreement, while Ms. Hand wept and received comfort from her partner and friends.
In heartfelt moments outside the courtroom after the verdict, Ms. Hand expressed to reporters that she felt 'overwhelmed and moved' by the support she had received.
She said, "I want to demonstrate to my daughter Freya and all young girls and boys that they can stand up for themselves in any situation, regardless of who is involved, and that justice will prevail."
The hand feels reassured after the conclusion of two weeks of hearings in Dublin.
Following a thorough discussion that lasted six hours and ten minutes, the jury presented their decisions on Friday.

Proper 12 Irish Whiskey was introduced in 2018 by McGregor. Later, he and his team sold the brand for an estimated £500 million.
McGregor reportedly earned around £120 million from the sale of his majority ownership. However, he continues to be a key promoter of the whiskey brand after it was acquired by Proximo Spirits in 2021.
The ex-UFC champion, who held titles in two divisions, is also the owner of a thriving business empire in his home country of Ireland. One of the most notable establishments in this empire is The Blackforge Inn, a well-known pub located in Dublin.
McGregor is believed to have invested around £2.5 million in buying and upgrading a location on Longmile Road in Dublin. This place has turned into a popular setting for the fighter to showcase his Proper 12 whiskey and Forged Irish Stout on social media.
Several prominent UK retailers have been approached by MailOnline, but they haven't yet responded about their plans to keep selling both of McGregor's beverage brands.
