Conor McGregor's fiancee Dee Devlin is ‘clearly not happy' despite sticking with scandal-hit MMA star, insiders reveal
In the past week, the MMA star has been snapped snogging a mystery brunette on a Florida beach before enjoying a cosy dinner with her, and US rapper Azealia Banks accused him of sending her unsolicited 'd*** pics '.

And, in November last year a jury found the father - who shares four children with fiance Dee - had sexually assaulted Nikita Hand.
Ms Hand was awarded almost €250,000 in damages after the jury ruled she was attacked by the UFC fighter McGregor at the Beacon Hotel in December 2018.
Dee was photographed walking side-by-side with her husband -to-be on the court steps throughout the civil case.
Then in January this year, McGregor faced fresh allegations after a woman accused him of raping her in a VIP bathroom at the Kaseya Center in 2023.
McGregor denied the allegations.
The alleged attack took place after Miami Heat's NBA Finals game against the Denver Nuggets on June 9.
Florida prosecutors, however, declined to pursue criminal charges for the alleged assault with the Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office, citing insufficient evidence in the case back in October 2023.
Despite this, loyal fiancee Dee has remained supportive of the MMA star.
On his 37th birthday last week, just a day after pictures emerged of McGregor kissing a woman on the beach, Dee shared a loved-up tribute to her man.
Dee uploaded a post on her Instagram story from a fan account which read: "Happy Birthday to the person who always keeps Dee entertained and makes her smile."
Rapper posts 'Conor McGregor's NUDES' online & claims disgraced UFC star 'sexually harassed her'
Putting on a united front, she also posted a series of photos of herself and the fighter beaming together.
But an insider told the Mail: "We are being told to believe that this is a happy, loving relationship behind all the headlines.
"I think a lot of things clearly point to the fact that she is not.
"From early on in the relationship, she has had a great deal to cope with. I would be very concerned with how much she can take."

A source also told The Sun: 'Dee is incredibly loyal and Conor knows that.
"She is often there with him behind the scenes, but just not in the limelight. He has also made it very clear he is bankrolling her now, which plays a huge part in the dynamic of their relationship - and makes it almost impossible for her to leave.'
They added: "She quietly accepts his behaviour and because she's been there from the beginning, she's always willing to move on.
"She'll stick with him, even if he pushes her loyalty in return."
In light of Dee's never-wavering public shows of support, relationships expert Jo Hemmings told The Sun she is 'addicted to his chaos'.
Although, she did warn there will be a 'tipping point' when she's 'reluctantly forced to leave' and it may be the close pals of Conor - who she dubs a 'bloody car crash' - that play a big part in it.
Jo notes that instead of writing something herself, amid the kissing scandal, Dee shared a fanpage post that read: "Happy Birthday to the person who always keeps Dee entertained and makes her smile."
'What's interesting is it's third person, she reposted probably one of the nicer things someone could say about Conor, instead of 'what the hell is she doing with this fool,'' she says.
'To call what she's gone through 'entertainment' suggests she enjoys there never being a dull moment with him and that she feeds off there being jeopardy every step of the way.
'She doesn't want the dull and predictable, she's addicted, almost addicted to him. But it's getting to the point where her hand is being forced and she could be coerced into leaving him.'
'The problem is these things tend to take on a force of their own,' she tells us. 'Because there is a picture, not rumour or speculation, he will be scrutinised to the point of no return.
'Dee may be pushed into a situation, reluctantly, where it's no longer good for her mental health to stay with him. The more it gathers pace, the more likely her hand will be forced.
'Family, friends and people close to her will become more persuasive in not allowing her to let the situation carry on.
'She's looking absolutely downtrodden, foolish and weak and could easily be tipped over the edge, not only to protect herself but to protect her children.
'It must be horrible to see their dad behaving like that and people talking about him unpleasantly online.
"She may leave him to protect her family because clearly family has been the most important thing to her throughout all of this.'
This comes after McGregor put on a cosy display with Dee after the recent scandals.
The UFC star posted several beaming snaps on Instagram after celebrating his birthday.
Dressed in pink, he posed in shades and posted pics of his kids and of Dee Devlin's hands resting on his chest.
It comes after he was seen smiling and snapping pics with Dee aboard the luxury yacht off the coast of Italy.
Pictures from his luxury yacht trip in Italy show the MMA fighter sparring and soaking in the sun alongside Dee.
In moments, Conor could also be seen gently patting his partner on the bum on the expensive boat, which was adorned with balloons in the colours of the Irish flag.
Dee is yet to comment on the mystery women seen with her fiance, and the allegations made by US rapper Azealia Banks.
The 212 hitmaker shared explicit photos that allegedly show the UFC brawler on X, alongside his threat 'don't be a rat cos (sic) all rats get caught'.
While Dee - who's dated Conor for 17 years - hasn't broken her silence, but she's weathered even more sensational accusations levied against him in the past.

Hailey Bieber kisses shirtless husband Justin during boozy party after he exposed marriage woes on new album
Hailey Bieber was pictured giving husband Justin Bieber a passionate kiss on Friday, as she shrugged off his recent album revelations about their marriage woes. The model, 28, shared the loved-up snap with her other half, 31, to her Instagram Stories, after attending a listening party for his new record at the exclusive Bird Street Club. The photo captured the pair in an intimate liplock, with a shirtless Justin holding the model close to him with both hands. Hailey, with her eyes closed, was pictured in a cropped black halter top, holding a yellow canned drink and her cellphone. Meanwhile, Justin showcased his tattooed arms, wearing only white basketball shorts with saggy jean shorts over them. The smooch comes after Justin seemingly laid bare their marriage struggles in the emotional lyrics of his new album, titled Swag – although has declared that he 'will not' leave her. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Justin Bieber (@lilbieber) Justin also shared a number of images from the party to his Instagram. One black and white photo showed him holding Hailey from behind, with her hand clasped over his. Yet another snap showed Hailey lovingly gazing at her spouse as he partied with his friends. Justin was pictured roaming through the party shirtless with a beer in his hand. His pants were secured by a brown belt with a silver, heart-shaped buckle, and his outfit was finalized with a pair of green socks. The Canadian crooner was surrounded by numerous pals and danced the night away. Another image showed him by the DJ booth, focused on something on the laptop. Justin also shared a video of himself performing a dance to one of his songs while sipping on his beer. It appears the singer took off a few articles of clothing during the party, as earlier in the night he was seen arriving to the event with Hailey while fully clothed. He was seen wearing a pink hoodie, matching funky sunglasses, a white cap on his head and platform slip-on shoes. He and Hailey held hands with one another while crossing the sidewalk. His latest album, Swag, which Justin released July 11, appears to allude to a challenging time between the couple, who have been married since 2018. Over the past few months, Justin has raised eyebrows with his hollow-eyed appearance and his social media posts. Fans have been harboring mounting concerns over Justin's health, and there have also been rumors of marital strife with Hailey. After months of rumors he has vowed to 'change' for his wife following a rocky period. In the album's second track, Daisies, Justin appears to be singing about him and Hailey being at loggerheads and failing to communicate clearly. The lyrics read: 'Throwin' petals like, "Do you love me or not?" / Head is spinnin', and it don't know when to stop / You said "Forever," babe, did you mean it or not? / Hold on, hold on. 'You leave me on read, babe, but I still get the message / Instead of a line it's three dots, but I can connect them / And if it ain't right, babe, you know I respect it / But if you need time, just take your time / Honey, I get it, I get it, I get it.' Hailey seemed to take aim at the 'losers' who have speculated about their marriage as she re-posted a photo of Justin's massive Swag billboard in NYC's Times Square earlier this month In track 10 of the 21-song track list, titled Walking Away, Justin sings about the couple 'taking a break' and 'testing patience.' 'Days go by so fast, don't wanna spend them with you / So tell me why you're throwing stones at my back / You know I'm defenseless,' he sings in the first verse. 'Girl, we better stop before we say some s*** / We've been testing our patience / I think we better off if we just take a break,' he continues. But the chorus and subsequent verses paint a picture of their enduring love despite strife. 'Baby, I ain't walking away / You were my diamond / Gave you a ring / I made you a promise / I told you, I'd change / It's just human nature / These growing pains / And baby, I ain't walking away,' he sings in the chorus. Ahead of the album's release, Hailey had some choice words for their fans as she took to social media to promote it. She took aim at the 'losers' who've speculated about their relationship as she re-posted a photo of Justin's massive Swag billboard in NYC's Times Square, captioned: 'Is it finally clocking to you f***ing losers?' She appeared to suggest that Justin's recent bizarre behavior wasn't the result of any marriage troubles but due to him being hard at work on his long-awaited music, which he partially recorded in Iceland back in April. Hailey also recently revealed what Justin is really like as a father and admitted she 'struggled to accept' her surprise pregnancy. The Rhode founder and the pop star welcomed their first child together, a baby boy called Jack, in August 2024. Speaking to Vogue Italia as their August 2025 cover girl, Hailey appeared to quash the rumors of a rift between her and Justin, as she gushed over him being an 'extraordinary' father, 'a natural', and 'seeing her as a goddess, a superhero'. However Hailey also opened up about her pregnancy with Jack, revealing it was unexpected. 'The pregnancy was hard for me to accept, it was a surprise and you have to deal with so many emotions,' she told the outlet. 'You realize that your life will never be the same again, yes, it changes in a positive way, but it will never be the same again.'

David Letterman unleashes fury at CBS for canceling his successor Stephen Colbert
David Letterman has backed his successor Stephen Colbert and suggested CBS canceled The Late Show because he was 'always shooting his mouth off' about Donald Trump. The 78-year-old late-night legend created The Late Show in 1993 after NBC denied him the chance to succeed Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show. Colbert took over for Letterman in 2015 and took the show in a decidedly more political direction but despite leading in the ratings, a shrinking late-night landscape led CBS to claim losses in the tens of millions of dollars. In his first comment on the show's cancellation, Letterman noted that his show was more about political satire than his version of The Late Show but was still complimentary, calling the decision by CBS 'pure cowardice.' 'I think one day, if not today, the people at CBS who have manipulated and handled this, they're going to be embarrassed, because this is gutless,' he told former Late Show producers Barbara Gaines and Mary Barclay. Letterman then said that he believed CBS was acting on behalf of Skydance CEO and incoming Paramount CEO David Ellison to make their lives easier after they acquire Paramount, taking away a constant critic of Trump. 'Hey boys, here's what we're gonna do: not only are we gonna get rid of that guy, we're gonna get rid of the entire franchise so you don't have to worry about another guy. It's gone,' Letterman said. The long-time talk show host noted CBS's $16million settlement with the Trump administration over a deceptively edited interview with election rival Kamala Harris, which Colbert had previously mocked as a 'big fat bribe.' He also referred to Ellison as a 'bottom feeder,' saying he should've bought a Dairy Queen instead of a television network. 'Stay out of this business.' He also tore into the accusations that the show lost so much money, with both Gaines and Barclay saying that they had cut budgets to help the network several times when they were at CBS. 'You're telling me losing this kind of money happened yesterday? I bet they were losing this kind of money a month ago, six weeks ago, or they have never been losing money,' he said. Letterman noted that despite the show losing tons of money, they're going to let him stay on the air for the next ten months continuing to lose it. 'That's another huge chunk of money they're gonna lose according to them. I don't think it was money, I think it was all to make sure the Ellisons were solid spending Dad's money,' he said, noting Ellison's father, Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison. He said of the treatment of Colbert: 'They did not handle Stephen Colbert, the face of that network, in the way he deserves to have been handled.' Letterman echoed Colbert's own joking words from earlier this week when the former Comedy Central comic called himself 'a martyr.' 'For Stephen, I love this: he's a martyr, good for him. If you listen carefully, you can hear them unfolding chairs at the Hall of Fame for his induction,' he joked. Ultimately, he said he envies the position Colbert is now in with his liberal viewers. 'I only wish this could've happened to me. This would've been so great for me. Now we've all gotta kiss Stephen Colbert's ring now,' he quipped. The comedian's decade-long run as the host of CBS's late night flagship will end next May, with network insiders suggesting the top-rated show was canceled because it was losing anywhere from $40 to $100million per year. Trump posted a celebration on Truth Social when the news was announced, saying 'I absolutely love that Colbert' got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings.' Colbert, who briefly addressed the move the day of its announcement, devoted much of his Monday show to the controversy, eventually uniting with almost every other liberal late-night talk show host in a show of support, as well as Adam Sandler and even Lin-Manuel Miranda. The 61-year-old comic opened after a standing ovation and a lengthy applause from the New York City crowd by saying ' cancel culture has gone too far' and then joked now that the show is ending, he can say whatever he feels. Colbert said sarcastically of Paramount: 'They made one mistake, they left me alive! For the next ten months, the gloves are off!' The Late Show host then referenced Trump's comments, turning to an 'Eloquence Cam' and said: 'How dare you, sir? Would an untalented man be able to compose the following satirical witticism? Go f*** yourself.' He then referenced Trump stating in the same Truth Social post: 'I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next.' Colbert replied: 'Nope, no, no. Absolutely not. Kimmel, I am the martyr. There's only room for one on this cross. And the view is fantastic from up here. I can see your house!' He also said that cancellation meant he could finally admit what he felt about the president. In contrast to his often over-the-top anti-Trump monologues, he dryly, quietly said: 'I don't care for him. Doesn't seem to have the skill set to be president. Just not a good fit, that's all.' He addressed his bosses at CBS - who he said 'have always been great partners' - before talking about Paramount's decision to cancel the show which he took over from David Letterman in 2015. 'How could it be a purely financial decision if The Late Show's is number one in ratings? A lot of folks are asking that question, mainly my staff's parents and spouses.' 'I could see us losing $24 million but where would Paramount have possibly spent the other $16 million, oh...' he quipped, naming the amount the company settled with Trump for over his 60 Minutes lawsuit. He went back to bashing Trump and the recent news accusing him of writing a 'bawdy' letter to Jeffrey Epstein for his 50th birthday. 'I'll have more to say about all this after the commercial break. The only other story is a small one... the president is buddies with a pedophile.' Puck journalist Matthew Belloni revealed Colbert's 'lack of profitability ' Friday, hours after CNN first broke the news that the show was canceled because it was in the red. Belloni outlined how The Late Show - whose cancellation was announced last Thursday - costs $100m a year to produce, with Colbert, 61, getting paid between $15 million and $20 million a year to host. Colbert beats ABC and NBC rivals Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon in the ratings, but that still wasn't enough to save him. Late night shows have slumped in profitability in recent years as viewers shun the format in favor of streaming services or watching content on their phones. Advertiser revenue has slumped sharply even in the last three years, Puck reported, making it harder to pull Colbert's show out of the red. Colbert was reported to be 'not angry, actually' about his cancellation and was chatting with his staff in a 'matter-of-fact' way before Thursday's show, Puck reported. Colbert, who will broadcast his final show in May 2026, was first informed his show was on the chopping block around July 4, it is claimed. Paramount Co-CEO George Cheeks made the decision, Puck reported. He then went on vacation, giving bosses at CBS time to plot behind his back, CNN reported. He moved to share it as quickly as possible so that his staff would not learn of their impending unemployment via leaks to the press. All three major late night hosts - Colbert, Kimmel and Fallon - have become notorious for their regular rants about President Trump, which many viewers have complained are boring and off-putting. But Belloni said he didn't believe the famously anti-MAGA Colbert was axed to appease Donald Trump, who recently won a $15 million payout from CBS after suing them over a 60 Minutes interview with Harris he said was deceptively edited. The axing of Colbert has delighted Trump, who posted about it on his TruthSocial network earlier today. Colbert's ouster could also make it easier for CBS parent company Paramount's efforts to merge with media company Skydance in a deal that must be approved by Trump's Federal Communications Commission. The Late Show launched in 1993 under David Letterman to compete with longtime late night juggernaut The Tonight Show. Colbert took over from Letterman in 2015 after his retirement. More than three decades later, CBS's entry into the late night sphere sits at the top, with second-best Jimmy Kimmel Live! raking in an average of 1.772 million viewers. Colbert, by comparison, collects an average of 2.417 million. Colbert - who once played a conservative character on Comedy Central's satirical late night program The Colbert Report - often aired jokes at the conservative's expense. Trump celebrated the news of the show's cancellation as a result. 'I absolutely love that Colbert got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings,' he wrote in a Friday Truth Social post. 'I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next. Has even less talent than Colbert,' he added, before talking up right-wing Fox News star Greg Gutfeld. '[He's] better than all of them combined, including the Moron on NBC who ruined the once great Tonight Show,' Trump added, referring to Jimmy Fallon.

Trump claims Supreme Court immunity ruling spares Obama from treason case
Donald Trump admitted his own Supreme Court victory granting 'presidential immunity' means its unlikely Barack Obama will be charged with treason over his handling of the 'Russia hoax.' Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard released a declassified report allegedly implicating Obama and his administration over 2016 election interference that accused Trump of colluding with Moscow. Trump has accused Obama of treason, while Obama issued a statement denying any allegations. Even if Obama were to be in trouble, the Supreme Court ruled in a monumental 2024 decision that the President of the United States has immunity from prosecution for official acts in office, in a case argued by lawyers on Trump's behalf. Trump was asked if 'presidential immunity' would apply to Obama before his trip to Scotland on Friday and the president didn't deny it, going as far as to say he'd done his predecessor a favor. 'He has done criminal acts, no question about it. But he has immunity and it probably helps him a lot. He owes me big. Obama owes me big,' Trump said. The ex-president's team argued in late 2023 that Trump, and any president, must have absolute immunity from prosecution over actions taken while in office or it could impair important decision-making. The 6-3 decision split along the court's ideological lines ensures that Trump will not face another blockbuster trial with the case sent back to a lower court to determine what is considered his 'official' versus 'unofficial' acts. Trump celebrated the decision, writing on Truth Social: 'Big win for our constitution and democracy. Proud to be an American!' A new report released by DNI Gabbard accused Obama of being behind a 'treasonous conspiracy' to fabricate what Trump repeatedly calls the Russia 'hoax' to bring him down. Gabbard made a series of criminal referrals to Pam Bondi's Justice Department and the agency is reportedly considering the request. Obama spoke out about the case via his spokesperson Patrick Rodenbush earlier this week, refuting many of the accusations circling around him. 'The bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction. Nothing in the document issued last week undercuts the widely accepted conclusion that Russia worked to influence the 2016 presidential election but did not successfully manipulate any votes,' Rodenbush noted. 'These findings were affirmed in a 2020 report by the bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee, led by then-Chairman Marco Rubio' Rodenbush concluded. Regardless, GOP leadership in both the House and Senate are pursuing investigations into members of the Biden and Obama administrations as they fend off clamoring calls for transparency in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal enveloping the Trump administration. Democrats have portrayed the reintroduction of the "Russian hoax' saga as a way for the Trump Administration to distract from the demands around Epstein. The president fingered Obama for trying to 'head a coup' with acolytes like former FBI Director James Comey and former DNI Director James Clapper doing his dirty work. Trump also called the Steele report, which examined his campaign's ties to Russia, as 'all lies' and a 'fabrication.' The Mueller Report found that while Russia did interfere in the 2016 election, the Trump campaign did not conspire or coordinate with the Russian government, despite at least 140 contacts between the Trump campaign and Russian nationals. Trump was asked earlier this week who the Justice Department should investigate following the report's release for a potential criminal referral. He didn't hesitate to name Obama and top members of his security team. 'It would be President Obama – who started it – and Biden was there with him, and [James] Comey was there, and [James] Clapper, the whole group was there,' Trump responded. At another point, Trump said Attorney General Pam Bondi should 'act' on the matter – while also indicating it was at her discretion. 'We have a very competent, very good, very loyal to our country person in Pam Bondi – very respected. And she – it's going to be her decision,' Trump said. Trump repeated calls to prosecute a wide circle of former Democratic officials come after he posted AI-generated video images of Obama being arrested and thrown in jail wearing an orange jumpsuit. Trump accused his rivals of organizing a failed 'coup' in 2016, when he defeated Hillary Clinton and captured the White House. Trump has hammered his rivals for what he calls 'no collusion' ever since the release of the Mueller report, even though Mueller himself never used that phrase.
