Conor McGregor has four children with his partner. Let’s take a deeper dive into the family of the Irishman and his children.
Conor McGregor and Dee Devlin grew up in the same neighborhood in Ireland. Despite living in close proximity, their paths didn’t cross until a fateful night in 2008 at a nightclub. Earlier in her life, Devlin used to work as a waitress and an actress.
