Conor McGregor is reportedly preparing to marry his long-time partner Dee Devlin in what could be a historic ceremony inside the Vatican.
The Irish Independent has reported that the couple, who share four children, are planning to exchange vows at the Chiesa di Santo Stefano degli Abissini, a small church tucked just behind St. Peter’s Basilica along the path to the Vatican Gardens.
If confirmed, it would mark a remarkable moment for the mixed martial arts star, 37, and Devlin, 38, who have been together for over a decade.
Vatican Sources Hint at the Ceremony
Earlier this week, Vatican spokesman Matteo Bruni told the Irish Independent that he was not aware of any wedding plans involving McGregor.
Despite that, unnamed insiders told the publication that the church had indeed been booked for the couple’s ceremony.
The Chiesa di Santo Stefano degli Abissini is tiny and historic, often overlooked by tourists, but its proximity to St. Peter’s Basilica would make it an extraordinary setting for a wedding of this scale.
Conflicting Reports About the Exact Location
A source close to McGregor confirmed to the Daily Mail that the wedding is scheduled to take place today, though the exact location remains a little uncertain.
While Rome is confirmed as the city, whether the ceremony will actually occur inside the Vatican is still not officially verified.
Even with details unclear, excitement is building among fans and media alike, as the union represents a rare glimpse into the private life of one of MMA’s biggest stars.
A Private Celebration for a Public Figure
McGregor and Devlin have kept much of their personal life out of the spotlight, despite the fighter’s global fame.
Together, they have navigated the highs and lows of his career, raising four children and maintaining a long-term partnership that has endured the scrutiny of the public eye.
The couple’s wedding, whether inside the Vatican or nearby in Rome, promises to be a deeply personal affair, blending history, faith, and a touch of celebrity spectacle.
What to Expect Next
Details are still emerging about the wedding, and media outlets are closely monitoring developments.
With a location as iconic as the Vatican, it’s certain to attract attention not just from fans but also from those fascinated by the intersection of sports, celebrity, and history.
As more information becomes available, updates on this story are expected to follow throughout the day.
