Car dealer Nadia Adan slams claims she is mystery woman on beach with Conor McGregor

Sunday World15-07-2025
The Ashford Motors car dealer rubbished the notion that she is the dark-haired woman pictured kissing the MMA star.
Social media star and Ashford Motors owner Nadia Adan has hit back at claims she is the mystery woman seen kissing Conor McGregor in a series of recently published pictures.
Over the weekend, The Sun released photos of McGregor appearing to kiss the unindentified woman on a beach in Florida.
It was reported the UFC fighter 'cozied up' with the dark-haired woman after taking a jet ski ride.
The father-of-four has been engaged to his partner Dee Devlin since 2020, with the pair having been a couple for the past 16 years.

In response to the pics going online, Nadia hit back at any suggestion that she is the unnamed woman seen alongside the 37-year-old.
Writing on Instagram, she said: 'For everyone messaging me, this most definitely is not me, rumours travel and people believe them.
'This could potentially destroy someone, pls be kind, thanks Nadia x.'
The second-hand car dealer then followed that up with another short video on her story, stating she had been getting 'abusive messages' over photos that she is not in.
'I woke up this morning to a plethora of calls and messages. I asked myself 'who did I piss off today?' – it definitely wasn't the EV owners.'
'Now come on, this not me in the picture. I have been getting abusing messages all day long; people telling I'm breaking up families.'
The Wicklow woman previously revealed in 2022 that when McGregor punched a punter in a pub for refusing to drink his whiskey, it cost her tens of thousands in a lucrative motor deal.

The Dubliner had sold his BMW i8 to the car dealer before an American fan bid €250,000 to get their hands on a vehicle previously owned by the MMA star.
"I had it sold for stupid money and I had a big deposit – then, obviously, that incident happened in the pub and your man called me up and said 'look, I don't like what he did' or whatever, and added, 'I'm not doing the deal',' Nadia previously told the Sunday World.
'Unfortunately, Conor went and did what he did to the guy in the pub and your man reneged on the deal and I said 'ah look, it's fine'.'
McGregor was fined €1,000 in November 2019 for assaulting Desmond Keogh at the Marble Arch pub in Dublin's Drimnagh the previous April.
Nadia has become one of the best known second-hand car dealers in Ireland through her company Ashford Motors, which has more than 233,000 followers on TikTok and another 128,000 on Instagram.
'I started doing fun videos,' she previously told Evoke. 'I would be hunkered down close to a car and viewers would have to try to guess the model.
'I had a low-cut top on and it sounds ridiculous, but it worked. People just didn't know what to do with me.
"They put me in a glamour model box, and that's fine, but I wasn't that. I'm a businesswoman, I'm educated, I can talk the talk, plus I have my boobs on show.'
Nadia, who had worked previously as a stockbroker, came to Ireland as a young girl with her mother after they fled their home country of Somalia as refugees.
Her mother took on five jobs to put Nadia through college, where she got a Masters in Trinity College.
'I had always been into my cars and the guys I were working with always drove nice cars. I bought a nice motor and I ended up selling it one day on my lunch break in Tesco car park and I made a few bob on it, and that's when I said to myself 'that was a bit of fun',' she recalls.
'I was always doing a buy and sell, just buying and selling stocks. Dealing in cars is very similar.'
She officially started trading at her Rathnew showroom in Co Wicklow in March 2020. Previously she had sold cars from her family home in nearby Ashford.

Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne dies at the age of 76, weeks after farewell show

BLACK SABBATH SINGER Ozzy Osbourne has died at the age of 76, his family has announced. A statement from his family said: 'It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. 'We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.' He had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019. Earlier this month he bid a farewell to fans with a Black Sabbath reunion, telling thousands of heavy metal enthusiasts at Villa Park, Birmingham – a stone's throw from where Black Sabbath was formed in 1968 – that it was 'so good to be on this stage' as he performed his last set from a large black throne.

Also among the bands performing were Anthrax, Metallica and Guns N' Roses, and there were messages of thanks from other celebrities, including Jack Black, Ricky Gervais and Dolly Parton. Ozzy Osbourne pictured ahead of his farewell concert in Villa Park in Birmingham Aston Villa Aston Villa In a tribute, Elton John said that Ozzy Osbourne was a 'huge trailblazer' who 'secured his place in the pantheon of rock gods'. He joined Rolling Stones legend Ronnie Wood and other famous faces in paying tribute to the Black Sabbath singer after his death. Elton John posted on Instagram: 'So sad to hear the news of Ozzy Osbourne passing away. 'He was a dear friend and a huge trailblazer who secured his place in the pantheon of rock gods – a true legend. 'He was also one of the funniest people I've ever met. I will miss him dearly. To Sharon and the family, I send my condolences and love. Elton xx.' Wood joined Osbourne and Black Sabbath's last gig at Villa Park earlier this month. He posted on X: 'I am so very sad to hear of the death of Ozzy Osbourne. Advertisement 'What a lovely goodbye concert he had at Back To The Beginning in Birmingham.' I am so very sad to hear of the death of Ozzy Osbourne 💔🙏 What a lovely goodbye concert he had at Back To The Beginning in Birmingham🙏☀️❤️🎤 — Ronnie Wood (@ronniewood) July 22, 2025 A post on Metallica's social media accounts showed a heartbreak emoji as well as a picture of the band members with Osbourne. As frontman of Black Sabbath, he was at the forefront of the heavy metal scene – a deeper, darker offshoot of hard rock. His theatrical stage presence, including once biting off the head of a bat, and styling himself as the Prince of Darkness marked him out as a controversial figure. Born John Michael Osbourne on 3 December 1948 in Aston, Birmingham, he left school at 15 and did odd jobs including factory work before teaming up with school friend Geezer Butler in several bands. Black Sabbath's eponymous debut album in 1970 made the UK top 10 and paved the way for a string of hit records. They went on to become one of the most influential and successful metal bands of all time, selling more than 75 million albums worldwide. The group were inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 2006, and Osbourne was added for a second time last year. He rose to further fame alongside his wife Sharon – whom he married in 1982 and with whom he has three children, Aimee, Jack and Kelly – through their MTV reality TV series The Osbournes. In 2020, Osbourne revealed he had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and he paused touring in 2023 after extensive spinal surgery. He had a fall at home in 2019 which aggravated injuries from a near-fatal quad bike crash in 2003, stopping his No More Tours 2 shows from going ahead in Europe and the UK. The tour had previously been rescheduled several times because of illness, the Covid-19 pandemic and logistical issues. He told US morning show Good Morning America in January 2020 that it was discovered he had the neurodegenerative disorder after a fall. He said: 'I did my last show New Year's Eve at The Forum. Then I had a bad fall. I had to have surgery on my neck, which screwed all my nerves and I found out that I have a mild form.' He and wife Sharon, who was also his manager, met when she was 18 and they married on 4 July 1982 in Hawaii. Daughter Kelly, 40, duetted with her father on the UK number one single Changes in 2003. He released his twelfth studio album Ordinary Man in 2020, followed by Patient Number 9 in 2022, which went to number three and two in the UK charts respectively.
