Less than a week ago, a jury in Ireland found Conor McGregor liable for sexual assault. Nikita Ni Lamhain filed against him for “brutally raping and battering” her at a hotel in 2018. After the liable ruling, he issued a public apology. Most recently, Conor’s fiancée Dee Devlin verbally dragged Nikita for allegedly telling a half-story.
Conor McGregor Speaks Out After Liable Ruling
In addition to the liable ruling, Conor McGregor has to pay more than $260,000 (250,000 euros) in damages, per TMZ. On Monday (Nov. 25), Conor took to X, formerly Twitter, and admitted to being unfaithful to Dee Devlin six years ago. However, the UFC fighter maintained his innocence regarding the sexual assault allegations.
“I know I made mistakes. Six years ago, I should have never responded to her outreaches. I should have shut the party down. I should never have stepped out on the woman I love the most in the world. That’s all on me. As much as I regret it, everything that happened that night was consensual, and all the witnesses present swore to that under oath.”
McGregor added that his legal team is preparing an appeal. In the meantime, he plans to “move forward” since he cannot go back. “I am beyond grateful to my family, friends, and supporters all over the world who have stayed by my side. That’s it. No more. Getting back to the gym- the fight game awaits” his post said.
People want to hear from me, I needed time. I know I made mistakes. Six years ago, I should have never responded to her outreaches. I should have shut the party down. I should never have stepped out on the woman I love the most in the world. That’s all on me.
As much as I…

The liable ruling has already begun to eat into Conor McGregor’s pockets, with several companies, such as Proper No Twelve, dropping partnerships with him.
Dee Devlin Snaps On Nikita In Spicy Rant
Like Conor McGregor, Dee Devlin also took to social media to react to the results of her partner’s case. However, unlike him, her tone in the Instagram Stories posts wasn’t too pleasant. Instead, Dee accused Nikita Ni Lamhain of sending Conor proactive messages for days and having an eager attitude leading up to the room in 2018.
“Imagine a WOMAN with her own boyfriend and child, testing provocative pictures of herself to another woman’s man with a family and child on the way. This woman claims to know me, yet still went ahead and sent messages and pictures of herself over and over to my man? Really?”
Additionally, Dee Devlin accused Nikita of going on a “three-day bender” and leaving her child day and night with a sitter. In another post, she cited hotel surveillance footage from where Nikita alleges the assault happened. In the video, Devlin was allegedly “having the time of [her] life,” per Dee.
“This is the real evidence, video footage no one knew was being taken in the moment which you miraculously don’t remember? To me it looks like you’re the one sexually assaulting in the lift. To me it looks like everyone is trying to get away from you,” Dee wrote. Adding, “My sons will be warned that women like you exist in the world,” in another post.
Furthermore, Devlin said that she and her fiancée dealt with their issues privately years ag. She said they’re stronger than ever now, with four kids who represent him.
In another post on her Instagram feed, Dee Devlin shared a photo featuring her, Conor, and their kids. She made it clear that she was standing behind her man, despite what Nikita or the internet had to say.
“My man and I have created a beautiful life together. I love him I trust him and I BELIEVE HIM! Our four beautiful children whose smiling faces and happy hearts are testimony to the man he is and who we are! No one is entitled to comment on our relationship- we trust one another and love one another. Nothing or nobody will change that. Our family stands strong!”
