CONOR McGREGOR has revealed that his fiancee Dee Devlin is expecting their fourth child.
The UFC star announced the landmark news during an appearance on US daytime television show ‘LIVE with Kelly And Mark’.

He initially spoke about how their three kids are getting on stateside before making the bombshell reveal.
He said: “I have three children; I’ve got two boys and a girl.
“My oldest one, Conor Jr, is 6, my daughter Croia Mairead, 4, and my youngest son Rian has just turned 2. So things are going well.”
“We’ve also got another on the way,” he added, prompting huge cheers from the studio audience.
“So, there’s a lot going on.”
He then mentioned that they are a few weeks away from being able to tell the sex of the baby.
This arranged appearance in front of a massive US audience went a lot smoother than his last one.
On that occasion he had taken a skit a bit too far while appearing at the NBA Finals and wound up hospitalising the Miami Heat’s mascot after punching him a little too hard.
But whoever was inside 7’6″ Burnie’s costume was given the all-clear once they’d been given a check by doctors and supplied with some painkillers.
McGregor has also played down how much of a cock-up it was.
He told TMZ: “The mascot is good. It was a skit, and all is well.
“I spent a lot of time with him afterwards, we talked it out, everything is great. It was all part of the show!”
McGregor is in training for his long-awaited UFC return later this year against fellow fan favourite Michael Chandler, 37.
But a date for their eagerly anticipated showdown has not yet been announced after the two coached against each other on The Ultimate Fighter.
But McGregor claimed the fight will be officially announced before this season of TUF draws to a close.
It will be his first bout since July 2021, when he broke his leg in the opening round against Dustin Poirier.
TUF START
Thus far, things haven’t been going great for him as a coach on the MMA reality show as his fighters are 0-3.
In the season’s opening episode, Team McGregor member Nate Jennerman got finished after only EIGHT seconds.
Meanwhile things didn’t get much better in last week’s ep as his top pick was brutally knocked out by a flying knee.
The latest episode saw Aaron McKenzie hospitalised after losing a bruising affair via the judges’ scorecards.
Viewing figures don’t seem to have quite been as massive as they were for his first stint on the show in 2015 either.
Per lowkickmma.com, the opening episode of this season’s show averaged 294k viewers.
While that is still an uptick from the previous McGregor-less season, which starred Robert Whitaker and Kelvin Gastelum, it’s nowhere near the 622k average that tuned in to the 2015 edition.
Irish-based fans can at least catch the entire season – albeit two days after it airs on subscription channels – on Friday nights at 10pm on Virgin Media.
