Dee Devlin (Conor McGregor's partner) victim blaming a rape victim

Conor has posted a few times, then deleted, check tatt.le.life thread for the screenshots...but this from Dee is crazy...he went out cheating on you at 8 months pregnant, he's had at least 5 sexual assault claims, he is linked to Irish gangster, he publicly cheated on you several times and poor Nikita was badly bruised and had to have a tampon removed via forceps....will Dee be warning her daughter of men like her father?

I should imagine any endorsements she might have had in her own right are shortly about to evaporate.

It's not because she's a woman, it's because he's horrific and if she wants to leave him it will seem impossible to her to do so being in the relationship, it seems impossible to me and I'm on the outside. I'd feel the same way if his partner was a man.

It's never impossible. She's choosing to stay. I was in an abusive relationship so I'm not speaking from no experience and I didn't have half the money she's got.

She could leave yes, and when he finds her? I'm sure there will be worse retribution for her 'stealing' his children than his victim got.

He's already sent his cronies after Nikita / her partner. Do tell how you think Dee and the children can get away from him, for ever?

Happiestwhen · 27/11/2024 08:22

So she's trying to say that she knew about (his version of events) at the time? I don't believe that for a minute. He's the type to deny it to the ground until evidence smacks him in the face and he finally starts making up his little lies. As if he hadn't booked a hotel with the sole purpose of having an orgy. If he wasn't guilty why the need to intimidate the witnesses, absolute scum of a man. And she's welcome to him, let's hope they leave Ireland for good. I bet baby number 5 will be announced shortly too, they definitely want another girl to complete their perfect family.

tuvamoodyson · 27/11/2024 09:08

She’s maybe been coerced into making that statement, either way, I’d hate to be in her shoes.

Honeycrisp · 27/11/2024 09:16

If Conor has coerced her, he's stupid. Would be in his best interests for all this to stop trending. Dee's messages won't convince anyone who didn't already believe him, and it gets people discussing whether he's abusing his wife or not. Silence would serve him better.

That poor woman.

It's never easy to leave, but this is a man who isn't just violent, he is connected to an enormous organised crime group.

In England, abusing your spouse doesn’t prevent you getting contact with your kids. Even though she has her own money, he could outlawyer her several times over.

Men like that don’t let their exes live in peace. If she left then the police will want info about what she knows about the comings and goings of the said criminals and she will spend her time trying to convince her ex that she’s no snitch

WeirdAndUnusual · 27/11/2024 09:28

She’s likely a victim too and I feel very sorry for her, the money she has doesn’t really help, when he has not only money but thugs to do his bidding.

Exactly. And he has fans and supporters all over the world, where would she move to where no one would ever see her and contact him with that info.

I don't think it's fair to put so much attention on his partner. We have no idea what goes on behind closed doors, and he would be a terrifying man to anger.

What we do know is that Conor McGregor is a rapist scumbag, and Nikita is incredibly brave. Let's just focus on those two rather than placing blame at a woman's door.

I agree to some extent but once you come out and publicly make statements like this you have well and truly placed yourself in the discussion.

It's interesting her anger is totally centred on what she perceives N's actions to be and conveniently ignore her husband's disgusting behaviour.

She is clearly the sort of woman who still believes you can be "asking for it".

CandidaAlbicans2 · 27/11/2024 09:40

But we simply do not know if Dee is in an abusive relationship. He's a scumbag but for all I know it could be a case of Madonna/whore, where Dee, as the mother of his children, is the Madonna here and any other woman who gives him sexual attention is a whore. Maybe he compartmentalises this and treats her well, and maybe her internalise misogyny means she thinks he can't help himself (so it's the other women's fault he had sex with them). She lives in her "happy family" bubble and sticks her fingers in her ears to his shitty ways outside. We can't assume she wants to leave but is too scared to.

magicstar1 · 27/11/2024 09:41

I can’t believe how many people are slating her for this. Just because it’s on her Instagram doesn’t mean she actually wrote it. Maybe she did, maybe he did. There’s no way to know.

tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz · 27/11/2024 09:41

Oh and I had to laugh at the last screen shot.

I wonder if she will also be warning her daughter that rapists like her dad exist?

Dweetfidilove · 27/11/2024 09:43

That is some horrible stuff there, but I've read many a OW thread on MN and some sexual 'impropriety' by men and women on this very forum will descend to berate, shut shame and victim blame. Nothing new or shocking really.

ClareBlue · 27/11/2024 09:44

She lives in a community where it is seen as the ultimate betrayal for a mother of the men's children to leave them. It's a personal insult and is dealt with as such. She is in extreme danger if she leaves him. He's closely connected to serious criminals in Dublin who have killed around 20 people in the last 10 years that we know about. That included a young girl they abducted off O'Connel Bridge in the middle of Dublin, held captive for abuse from numerous criminals that he associates with, killed, cut up and put in a bag and dumped in the Dublin mountains. Then burnt the house down she was held in. These are the people she lives amongst. So people saying she should just leave have no concept of the consequences.

ClareBlue · 27/11/2024 09:48

And if the chief witness and plaintiff in the highest profile court case of the year in Ireland can have her boyfriend stabbed, masked men break into her house and threaten her and have to relocate under protection, then what chance has she got of being safe two years down the line when things are quieter after leaving the scum bag.

Cartwrightandson · 27/11/2024 07:23

I think there's a real possibility that he abuses her too

So why would you start this thread knowing she's likely a victim of serious physical abuse and presumably coercive control?

Men like him would demand their partner publicly condemn the victim.

It's odd you believe it's possible she's being horrifically abused to the point of being beaten unconscious and requiring medical treatment, but started this thread.

whathaveiforgotten · 27/11/2024 09:57

@Beezknees

It's never impossible. She's choosing to stay. I was in an abusive relationship so I'm not speaking from no experience and I didn't have half the money she's got.

Firstly I congratulate you on getting out.

But if she is indeed a victim, her abuser has essentially limitless cash, literally millions of fans - thousands of whom could be willing to 'punish' a woman for leaving him and strong established connections to organised crime groups responsible for countless attacks and many murders.

Her situation in that sense is pretty rare, even if being a victim of abuse unfortunately isn't.

I have the most awful feeling that something else really awful is going to happen in plain sight. I hope that I am wrong

Like what?

This is very true. There’s plenty of women like that out there, rather than being downtrodden they seem to revel in the belief that they’re a special chosen one.

I would say its about as close to impossible as you could get. He's got links to organised crime, she's not living in a world where the normal rules apply.
