Conor McGregor and fiancée Dee Devlin look loved up as they enjoy a romantic child free dinner date during their lavish holiday - amid 'cheating' scandal and 'nudes' claims
The Irish MMA fighter, 37, was embroiled in controversy over the weekend when he was photographed kissing a mystery brunette woman on a beach in Fort Lauderdale.
With his partner Dee - whom he shares four children with and has been engaged to since 2020 - nowhere in sight, questions were raised about their relationship.
Rapper Azealia Banks then added to the furore as she took to X - formerly known as Twitter - to accuse Conor of sexual harassment.
On Monday, Azealia, 34, shared nude photos which purported to show Conor, which she claimed he sent to her unprompted.
Amid the backlash, Conor and Dee have shrugged off the criticism, continuing to display their affection for each other - and Conor's latest Instagram post on Saturday showed they're very much still going strong.
In the holiday carousel, the couple were all smiles as they headed to shore for a romantic dinner for two.
Dee looked radiant in a flowing floral-print dress, while Conor wore a satin, Pucci-inspired shirt paired with white trousers.
The pair looked happier than ever as he shared a series of sweet selfies from their night together.
He kept the caption simple, adding just a red heart emoji.
The couple have been enjoying time in Sardinia together to celebrate Conor's 37th birthday - which was on July 14.
Dee shared a gushing tribute to Conor on the day and they have both been posting loved-up content to social media in the days since while enjoying their trip.
Their united display comes after concerns when Conor was seen smooching a mystery brunette in full view of fellow beachgoers in Fort Lauderdale.
Conor was spotted enjoying a cold beverage while the woman, who was dressed in a leopard print bikini, shared his sun lounger.
The pair chatted away in the shade as the sportsman cosied up to her by wrapping his arm around her back.
Dee - with whom he shares children, daughter Croia, five, and sons Conor Jr, eight, Rian, three and Mack, 19 months, with - was nowhere in sight.
However, Dee brushed off the scandal as she simply posted a loving tribute to Conor to her Instagram page on Monday.
Dee shared a post from a fan account on her Instagram story which read: 'Happy Birthday to the person who always keeps Dee entertained and makes her smile.'
Just hours later, Azealia set the internet ablaze after sharing alleged nude photos of Conor that she claims the disgraced star sent unprompted.
She accused Conor of sexual harassment when she shared nude photographs purporting to show the MMA star.
'How you gonna send a b**** a some crooked d*** pics then threaten her not to tell,' she wrote alongside the screenshots.
'@TheNotoriousMMA n**** do you know who the f*** I am? This is HARAM.'
Azealia continued: 'Like how are you really going to sexually harrass me with the potato farmer d*** then threaten me not to tell???? Honey…… ain't u trying to be the president of Ireland what is it giving fam? Use some f***ing sunscreen damn.'
As well as the alleged nude selfies, the screenshots also showed a message from what purported to be Conor's account reading: 'Don't be a rat cos all rats get caught.'
Alongside one image which seemingly shows his manhood strapped to a dumbbell, the Irish fighter apparently wrote: 'Lifting weights.'
Azealia shared another screenshot of the alleged pictures suddenly being 'hidden' on X because she does not follow Conor's account.
Although it is unclear if he had anything to do with that alleged change, she commented: 'The motherf***er woke up early LOL.'
DailyMail.com reached out to the last-known attorneys on record for Conor, his agent and Azealia's agent for comment at the time.
It is the latest embarrassment to hit the sportsman's relationship with his partner Dee, who was ever-present by his side throughout his sexual assault court case last year.
In 2024, Conor lost a civil case as jurors at the High Court in Dublin found him liable of raping Nikita Hand, 35, in a Dublin hotel on December 9, 2018, with the judge awarding Hand €250,000 in damages.
But despite the verdict, Dee emphatically made it clear that she intended to back Conor - attacking Nikita in a series of posts on Instagram at the time.
In the posts, she wrote: 'Conor and I dealt with these issues privately many years ago, as should be done in a relationship and we have come out stronger than ever.
'We have four beautiful children now whose smiling faces and happy hearts are a testament to who he is and who we are!'
The pair have been together for 15 years and got engaged in August 2020 after Conor proposed while they were celebrating his birthday.
The couple met as teenagers at a nightclub in 2008 and Dee has been a key player in the MMA star's story, supporting him when he was jobless and focused on making it as a professional fighter.

Formula 1's George Russell shares a steamy smooch with his bikini-clad girlfriend Carmen Montero Mundt on romantic Italian yacht trip
shared a steamy smooch with his bikini-clad girlfriend Carmen Montero Mundt on a romantic yacht trip in Sardinia, Italy on Monday. The Mercedes Formula One driver jetted off on a relaxing Italian getaway before he returns for the Dutch Grand Prix after a three week summer break. The loved-up couple looked completely smitten as they larked around during watersports. George and Carmen packed on the PDA later in the day after a fun-filled day in the sun. The shirtless hunk showcased her ripped physique in navy swimshorts, while Carmen flashed her abs in a skimpy yellow bikini. The 27-year-old first came across fashion influencer Carmen, when the Spaniard had been set to meet a friend of his for a date in 2020. 'My mate couldn't make it, so I thought I'll swing along to see how it goes,' Russell told The Sun. 'She told me she's from the south of Spain and she wouldn't ever expect someone to know the small place she's from. 'I knew exactly where she was from, so it was quite coincidental.' The pair quickly bonded, with George having spent a significant amount of time in the city of Jerez in southern Spain where Carmen hails from during his karting days. However, while Carmen has now become one of George's biggest supporters, faithfully following his globe trotting exploits, she was not initially aware of his profession. He continued: 'I'm so fortunate with Carmen because we met before the craziness of F1. We met organically and it wasn't a set up. 'She didn't know who I was, she didn't know F1 and wasn't even bothered by any of that. She is a very down-to-earth individual and we share values. 'She's such a hard worker, wants to achieve so much and she really recognises what it takes in my position to be at this level. Having her on this journey means an awful lot to me because even though we are living our dream it can be a lonely lifestyle. The shirtless hunk showcased her ripped physique in navy swimshorts, while Carmen flashed her abs in a skimpy yellow bikini George and Carmen showed off their impressive skills There had been some nagging doubts about his future with the constructor but George is set for a bumper payday, more than doubling his current £12m-a-year package The pair put on a tactile display 'Having somebody to help you disconnect from that actually brings performance as well.' When the pair celebrated five years together in February, Carmen detailed her pride in her partner in a post on social media. She wrote: 'Five years with the most wonderful person I could ever ask for. Forever proud of who you are and what you do.' The British Formula One star is closing in on a new Mercedes deal worth an eye-watering £30m-a-year. There had been some nagging doubts about his future with the constructor but George is set for a bumper payday, more than doubling his current £12m-a-year package. As Mail Sport's Jonathan McEvoy exclusively revealed this week, negotiations have accelerated over the last few weeks and a source close to the talks confirmed: 'All the main points have been agreed.' George's incoming raise will remain well short of Max Verstappen and Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton - each on about £60m a year. While he does not yet have the achievements or global fanbase to garner such earnings, his win in Canada and domination over team-mate Kimi Antonelli this season point to his consistent form. His net worth is currently estimated to be in the region of £15m, though clearly that is set to increase substantially in the next few years.

Venice's anti-tourism protesters should stop whining
If there was an annual award for anti-tourism then surely this year's prize would have to go to Venice. Yes, the usual suspects in Barcelona and the Canary Islands may have been busy with their water pistols again but it's their counterparts in the Floating City who have truly upstaged them this time around. Maybe organising a weekend of street protests against Jeff Bezos's wedding was always going to seize the news agenda, given the hordes of reporters already heading to Venice to cover it. But the protests also deserve some credit for just how effectively they revealed the true face of anti-tourism protests as another iteration of the same old politics of envy. Venice as a billionaire's playground for the weekend? What on earth would the great old Doge have made of it all? While the ancient Venetian rulers might have other concerns (like why their name has been pinched by a US government department), does anyone believe they wouldn't be delighted to see that the city they built is still able to court the ultra-wealthy? In truth, the Venice naysayers show the hypocrisy of the anti-tourism movement. In Barcelona, protesters point to the deluge of Airbnbs across the city contributing to the housing affordability crisis as well as dumping drunken party-goers into residential neighbourhoods. But the idea that this applies to the ultra-rich who visit Venice is frankly ludicrous. Everyone knows the super rich love Venice, which is exactly why so many of them flock there every year for the Venice Film Festival or the Biennale. And when they get there they stay in dreamy hotels that were built for their custom – quite literally in some cases. Did you know the Four Seasons spent more than $30 million to restore the glorious Hotel Danieli as a five-star hotel. What would have happened to that building if it weren't for the roaring demand from high-net-worth travellers? In some ways, it's a tale as old as Venice itself. Like its modern-day equivalent in Dubai, much of the city was built to cater to the super rich of the 13th and 14th centuries. And you can bet those glorious palazzos were pretty controversial in their heyday too. Just look at the famous Ca' d'Oro (House of Gold). Built by one of Venice's founding families, the Contarini, it was practically the antidote to old-fashioned Christian modesty. Still, that's what Venice does: it attracts the rich and famous, and those who want to walk in their footsteps. Remember the iconic images of Princess Diana in her gondola? How many trips to Venice do you think they inspired in the decade that followed? Within a year, she'd probably put most of those gondoliers' future children through university with the extra business. And don't listen to anyone tell you that 'overtourism' is ruining Venice either. In fact, the truth remains that the city is actually much less crowded than it was 500 years ago – even when you factor in those cruise ships. These days, the city has just 20,000 residents, and attracts around 15,000 tourist per day, on average. But this compares to 180,000 residents back in the Renaissance days. That means it isn't difficult to find a quiet bistro or bar, provided you're happy to wander ten minutes away from St Mark's Square. Even the most visited parts of Venice still have a seductive charm. Perhaps it's the constraints that come with being a canal city, but I'm always struck by how well modern Venice seems to have managed to maintain not just its character, but also the kind of characters who frequent it – particularly after the sun goes down and the cruise ship day-trippers disappear. Last time I was there, I dined at the Club del Doge in the famous Gritti Palace. As I was perusing the menu, a hushed silence fell over the room. When I looked up, I saw a rather famous designer followed by what appeared to be their two romantic partners (an arrangement that the TikTok generation calls a 'polycule') in tow. Witnessing the rich and famous with their guard down is always interesting. But in Venice it is something else entirely. In those scandalous seconds, I felt the same thrill that well-heeled Venetian traders must have experienced when catching a glimpse of the most powerful nobles peeking from behind their carnival masks. It's that sort of magic that makes Venice such an intoxicating place. And while certain locals might pull their hair about the city's all-year-round popularity, the truth is that none of the kind of gimmicks we've seen in recent years – like the tourism tax on day-trippers or the ban on groups of over 25 people – will put a dent in its appeal to the rest of us, and certainly not to the super rich. Still, at least Venice makes for a stunning backdrop for those who do still want to protest. Let's just hope they leave the water pistols behind for now.
