Conor McGregor and Dee Devlin: Net worth, huge house and why they'll never split

Conor McGregor and his long term partner Dee Devlin have been at the centre of a legal drama this week, after the star was found guilty of sexual assault in a civil case.

The UFC star, 36, was ordered to pay £200,000 in damages to Nikita Hand, after jurors at Dublin's High Court were told the fighter "brutally raped and battered" her. McGregor however, continues to insist he's innocent, saying relations between him and Ms Hand in 2018 at a Dublin hotel were consensual.

Despite his claims, he was found to have assaulted the victim following a civil sexual assault case. McGregor and Devlin photographed leaving court this week, with the fighter issuing a public apology to the mum of his kids.

Speculation around the couple's relationship has grown after Devlin could be seen looking dejected as they walked hand in hand following the case. But she has now spoken out, defiant in her support of her partner of 15 years.

Here the Mirror looks at the life they've built together and why the couple will never split up...

How they met and engagement

Back in 2008, when Conor was just 19 years old, he quit his plumbing apprentice and set his sights on becoming an MMA fighter full time. Not long after, he spotted a young Dee Devlin in a nightclub, and asked spoke to her properly after seeing her around before. The pair hit it off, beginning their relationship.

Speaking previously to VIP magazine, Dublin native Conor said: "I asked her to come over and we just started chatting. She seemed like a nice girl, and I like good girls." Dee herself admitted their was definitely an initial spark, saying: "I suppose it was! He’s very funny – he always keeps me entertained and makes me laugh."

The couple's partnership grew, with them sharing their journey on social media, showing off their lavish lifestyle, luxury holidays and expensive cars and jewellery with their fans. After 12 years together, the pair shared the news that they were engaged, announcing the news in August 2020, while they enjoyed a lockdown trip to the south of France to celebrate the MMA star's 32nd birthday.

Dee and Conor are still yet to tie the knot, but they are vocal about their love for each other, with Dee standing by him through his court trial and supporting him in his career while raising their four children.

Net worth and business ventures

While McGregor's exact net worth is not confirmed, but the fighter doesn't shy away from the topic when discussing his vast fortune. In an interview with the Irish Mirror in 2023, he said: "I'm closing in on a billion now. I think I'm at about $650m (£520m) all in I've made. I think they (Forbes) estimate that. I'd have to probably do my own little check of that. But I fancy my chances, I fancy my chances of getting up that list."

Although Celebrity Net Worth have estimated fortune at around £160 million, his multiple business ventures and fighting career are likely to mean his paydays are lucrative. When McGregor took on Floyd Mayweather Jr in August 2017, he's reported to have raked in upwards of £100m alone.

Not only that, but his other projects include the Proper 12 Whiskey brand, which he sold for a reported £400m, as well as his Forged Irish Stout, which launched last year. He also owns his own menswear brand, August McGregor and nightlife venue the Black Forge Inn. On top of his personal ventures, he holds deals with Beats by Dre, Monster Energy, Bud Light and Reebok, among others.

Incredible home

Conor and Dee live in a huge mansion located just a 40 minute drive away from Dublin, in Straffan, Co. Kildare. The couple, who share the home with their four children, have named the property The Paddocks.

It features five huge bedrooms, six bathrooms, huge living room, dining area and kitchen, plus a games room and massive landscaped gardens. There are also horse-riding facilities and a state of the art gym. On entering the luxury abode, a spiral staircase is lit by extravagant crystal chandeliers.

But apparently that's not enough for the family, who also have a £1.8m holiday home in Marbella and previously rented out a seven-bedroom mansion in Las Vegas. McGregor submitted a proposal to partially demolish and rebuild their Irish mansion, to include two basements, one with a pool, cinema, jacuzzi and treatment room, with another with a games room and bar.

However, the UFC star's plans have been scuppered buy the local council, which states the plans aren't consistent with the local area's rural houses. The proposed waste water treatment system is said to be "unsuitable, while the 'unnecessarily' large rooms go against their guidelines for homes to be "restrained and absent of fussy add-ons or frills".

Family life

Conor and Dee have built a family together over the course of their relationship. In 2017, after almost 10 years together, they had their first child, Conor Jr. Their daughter Croia, 5, was born two years later, with their son Rian born in 2020. In 2023, their youngest son Mack was born.

The fighter and his fiancée show their life together as family, with the pair documenting Dee's pregnancies and home life. In December 2018, McGregor shared a photo of him, Conor Jr, and Dee, who is cradling her baby bump. 

The year before, in March 2017, he shared a heartfelt Mother's Day tribute to the mum of his kids and hi9w own mum. Next to a photo of his fiancée and his mum Margaret at sister Aoife's wedding, he wrote: "Happy Mother's Day to my mother Margaret and my babies mother Dee! Two bosses. I love you both. Put the feet up, I've got you for life."

Why they'll never split

Despite the couple's trials and tribulations, Dee has remained loyal to her partner, even supporting him through his rape trial, which would signal the end for most couples.

Speaking back in 2013, McGregor made it clear he was in it for the long haul, saying: "I’m doing this to secure my family’s future and Dee’s future. One day, I want myself and Dee to be able to chill on a beach and not have any worry in the world. That’s why I’m doing this. I want to be financially secure by the time I have kids. When that happens, I want to be ready."

In 2015, he reasserted his desire to financially support his partner and their children, telling the Irish Mirror: "My girlfriend worked very hard throughout the years and stuck by me when I had essentially absolutely nothing. I only had a dream that I was telling her. For me to be able to take her out of work, give her everything she's ever wanted and to travel the world with her fills me with pride. It keeps me going. We've been together a long time. She's been through it all with me."

Meanwhile, following his recent court case, Dee broke her silence on social media today, reassuring the public she is very much still by her man's side. Backing McGregor, she said: "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!"
