The joyous picture has already got more than 3 million likes on Instagram, with fans flooding the comments section with congratulatory messages and best wishes. “Congrats brother!

Big year for Conor McGregor

In late 2020, McGregor and Devlin revealed that they are expecting a third child and on Monday the world saw the first glimpse of Rian. For the couple, it’s another blessing for what has been an absolutely incredible year for them. Despite McGregor losing his return bout to Dustin Poirier in January at UFC 257, he was recently named the world’s highest-paid athlete by Forbes. Apart from that, the Notorious One also made a huge $600 million deal with Proximo Spirits by selling the majority share in his ‘Proper No Twelve Irish whiskey’ company. All things considered, the McGregor clan is enjoying a great year and welcoming Rian is just the cherry on top.

Conor McGregor and Dee Devlin reportedly got together in 2008 and have stayed together ever since. The pair got engaged last year in August, with reports claiming that they will get hitched after the birth of their third child. So, now that Rian has entered the world, the rumours of their marriage have become even bigger. Dee has remained tight-lipped about the nuptials, but her fiancée has already cleared up one major detail - the location. Earlier, while talking to the press (via Irish Mirror), McGregor revealed that his marriage will take place in Ireland.

“I'm gonna get married in the Emerald Isle, and then figure it out, so it's a big process. Let's see what happens, I'm ready for it all,” he added.
