FORGET all the machismo, the swagger, and the outlandish bad boy behaviour because when it comes to his children, Conor McGregor is a HUGE softy.
UFC star Notorious, 34, is the father of three children with fiancee Dee Devlin.

When it comes to family time, McGregor is not afraid to dress up and goof around
And now he has revealed they have a fourth on the way.
McGregor made the big confession on US daytime television show ‘LIVE with Kelly And Mark’.
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.”
Fatherhood has suited the MMA hard man, who has always played the role of doting dad to his children, whether that’s playing on the beach or taking them to see Mickey Mouse.
Disneyland dad
Back in March, McGregor took his brood to the best place on earth… Disneyland.
They went on a private plane to the Florida resort, only the best will do for his clan.
He was seen pushing a pram around the park, while grabbing them gifts from the gift shops, including an Avatar spear.
Dee got into the spirit of things wearing Minnie Mouse ears, but on a previous visit McGregor wasn’t going to let his bravado get in the way of entertaining his children.
In a 2020 visit, he sported a brilliant Donald Duck cap.
Playing dress up is especially important to McGregor in entertaining his kids, getting into the spirit of Halloween by dressing as a pilot.
Aquarium and the Versace mansion for dinner
Much to Conor Jr’s amusement in 2019, dad and his mini-me had a day out at Sea Life Park in Miami with mum in tow.
Even better, a cheeky seal was on hand to greet the family.
Also in attendance at the family outing was Conor’s dad Tony and sisters Erin and Aoife as they looked in fine spirits posing for pictures.

Even McGregor Jr showed no fear as Dee introduced him to the seal.
The plucky seal even planted a kiss on dad, as fighter and mammal smiled at one another.
Later, he took the family out to the exclusive Versace mansion for a first class dinner to toast his mum’s 60th birthday.
If that’s not spoiling everyone…
The lavish christenings
When McGregor isn’t holding, hugging or seen kissing one of his kids, he’s giving them the best life possible.
Take daughter Croia’s astonishingly lavish christening at a 15th century castle near Dublin.
No expense was spared as toadstools, pink teepees and a large bouncy castle made up the fairy theme.
The day played out in the 15th century Luttrellstown Castle Resort.
Champagne and a disco rounded off the party after a slap-up dinner for the many guests.

While ‘real-life’ fairies entertained younger attendees at the £5,000-a-night venue along with garden games and cute decorations.
The same venue was used for Conor Jr’s christening.
That said, Rian had the previous two beat where he had his christening.
In 2021, the family rolled up to the Vatican, where the ceremony took place.
Yacht life
McGregor’s riches afford him to live a life of luxury.
And the Irish star is partial to spending time on board private yachts, as well as owning his own Lamborghini superyacht worth £2.7million.
On more than one occasion, we’ve seen the apple of his eye, Conor Jr resting in his dad’s arms as they sail the seas.

McGregor’s kids are used to sailing with dad
When they took a trip to County Wicklow in Ireland four years ago, McGregor shared a photo of Jr punching the air with delight as the proud dad beamed with happiness.
Making his child happy, in turn, makes him very happy.
Rian’s birthday
Just because Rian was his third child, it didn’t make McGregor any less gushing on his first birthday.
Warm-hearted Conor showed off a series of pics on a beach day with his youngest.
The candid snaps showed a topless McGregor holding his lad on the beach and sitting next to him eating surrounded by balloons.
McGregor captioned the snap: “Happy 1st birthday Rian McGregor, daddy loves you so much.”
