Conor McGregor is now a dad of three after his girlfriend gave birth to a son yesterday
McGregor is an elated man right now. He and his partner Dee Devlin have been blessed with a baby boy, and have named him Rian McGregor.
The McGregor’s are now a family of 5. The pair are also parents to a son, Conor Jack Jr. (born in 2017) and daughter Croia McGregor (born 2019).
McGregor took to Instagram to share his delight. The Irishman posted a picture of himself holding the baby in his arms, while mentioning that both the baby and the mother were hale and healthy.
McGregor wrote:
“The McGregor Clan is now a family of 5. Healthy baby boy delivered! Baby and Mammy Wonder Woman are doing great! God I thank you for everything you give to me and my family in this world. My new born son, Rían McGregor.”
The news comes hardly a fortnight after McGregor threw a lavish birthday party for his son Conor Jack Jr. in Dubai.
McGregor bested the likes of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo to emerge number 1 in the latest highest-paid athletes list released by Forbes.
His total earnings for the year is a whopping $180 million, at least $50 million more than Messi who came in at 2nd.
McGregor pocketed around $25 million for his fight against Dustin Poirier at UFC 257. But a large part of his earnings has been due to the sale of his Whiskey brand Proper No.12 to Proximo Spirits, which is said to have made him a staggering $150 million.
‘The Notorious’ continues his meteoric rise to super-stardom. He is now set to take on Dustin Poirier in a trilogy bout at UFC 264 on the 10th of July.
