Conor McGregor's highly anticipated return to the UFC was abruptly halted at UFC 329, with the Irish fighter suffering a knee injury just 69 seconds into his bout against Max Holloway. This injury is expected to sideline McGregor for at least a year, raising significant questions about his future in mixed martial arts.
Throughout McGregor's career, his longtime partner Dee Devlin has been a steadfast presence. They first met in Ireland when they were young adults, and Devlin has supported him through his rise from an aspiring fighter to a global superstar. She has been instrumental in his career, assisting with business ventures and accompanying him to numerous public events.
The couple announced their engagement in August 2020 and officially tied the knot on December 12, 2025, in Vatican City. They are parents to four children: Conor Jack Jr. (born 2017), Croia (born 2019), Rian (born 2021), and Mack (born 2023). Devlin has largely maintained a private family life amidst McGregor's public career.
McGregor's career has also been marked by controversies, including a civil lawsuit in 2021 where he was found liable for sexual assault. Despite these challenges and relentless media attention, Devlin has remained publicly supportive, often appearing by his side at major events. As McGregor faces another lengthy recovery, Devlin is expected to continue providing crucial support.
