Dee Devlin is best known for being the girlfriend of Irish UFC superstar Conor McGregor and the pair have been together for more than 13 years
One of MMA’s power couples, Conor McGregor and girlfriend Dee Devlin went from rags to riches. They have been dating for more than 13 years, and recently got engaged. The couple resides in Dublin, Ireland.
Dee Devlin was born on the 9th of August in 1987 in a suburb named Walkinstown in Dublin, Ireland. Not much information is available about her parents. She does have two sisters named Sarah and Cathy. Her sister Sarah is a supermodel.
Dee Devlin’s boyfriend Conor McGregor was born a year after she was born. The Irishman was born on the 14th of July in 1988, in Crumlin, Dublin, Ireland.
Dee Devlin and Conor McGregor met way back in the year 2008, when McGregor was a teenager. The pair first locked eyes in a pub, and McGregor took an instant liking to Devlin.
They soon moved into McGregor’s parents attic, since McGregor was just trying to make his way up, as a fighter. 12 years later, the pair, still going strong, announced their engagement in August 2020.
Little would Devlin have known that McGregor would go on to become the superstar that he is now. The Irishman made his debut on the 8th of March in 2008, against Gary Morris.
He quickly rose through the ranks and had a record of 12 wins and just 2 losses by the end of 2012. He was making a name for himself as a knockout artist.
Following his impressive string of wins, McGregor was roped in by the UFC in 2013. He made his debut against Marcus Brimage on the 6th of April, 2013 and stopped him in the very first round.
His next fight was a tough assignment against Max Holloway. McGregor stood and delivered this time, earning an impressive unanimous decision win over ‘Blessed’.
Wins over Diego Brandao, Dustin Poirier and Denis Siver earned him an interim featherweight title shot against Chad Mendes.
He beat Mendes via. TKO in the second round, which earned him the title shot against Jose Aldo at UFC 194.
Of all the opponents, he had faced previously in the UFC, McGregor made the fight against Aldo look the easiest, as he knocked out the Brazilian in just 13 seconds to win the featherweight title.
Following a minor blip against Nate Diaz in 2016, McGregor went on to become a two-division champion after beating Eddie Alvarez in November 2016 (at UFC 205).
Since then his appearances in the UFC have been sporadic. He fought Floyd Mayweather in a boxing fight in the year 2017, which he lost.
A year later he fought Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 229, which he once again lost. After fifteen months, he made a winning return against Donald Cerrone at UFC 246 in January 2020.
A year later he faced Dustin Poirier and was handed the first-ever knockout loss of his career.
Devlin would surely consider herself lucky to get a guy like McGregor. Having stuck with him through his thick and thin, she now leads a life of royalty. Her husband McGregor is the richest sports star for the year 2021, with an astonishing net worth of $200 million.
Dee Devlin has three kids with Conor McGregor. They welcomed their first child Conor Jack McGregor Jr. in May 2017. The couple recently celebrated Jack’s fourth birthday in Dubai.
2 years after Jack was born, Devlin gave birth to a daughter in January 2019. They named her Croia McGregor.
And very recently, on the 17th of May, the couple welcomed their third child. This time a son, named Rian McGregor.
Dee Devlin currently handles all of McGregor’s business empires. Having been a waitress and an amateur model before settling down with ‘The Irishman’, she would consider herself gifted and lucky to have always stood by her boyfriend’s side.
The businesswoman also looks after her three kids, and juggles the hectic jobs with ease.
Her net worth is estimated to be around $20 million.
