Conor McGregor has taken to Instagram to share that he and his family have been suffering from the Aussie flu virus which recently arrived in Ireland. 

The virus has killed around 10 people this year, with a further 73 hospitalised, according to the HSE's influenza report. 

Conor posted a snap of himself and his son Conor Jr relaxing and recuperating from the illness.

'Well that was a wild New Year's Eve. Half the family hit with the Australian flu virus and some even left in hospital with it,' he captioned a since-deleted Instagram post. 

'I've never even been to Australia wtf.'

'One of the most intense few days I've gone thru. Big New Year's Eve party cancelled at the last minute and I am left shaking in bed the past two days.' 

'll leave that with the rest of the bad behind me in 2017 and take with me the many great experiences I've had this year!'

'None greater than the birth of my son Conor Jr. and the continued support of my family, my friends and my dedicated staff through thick and thin. Thank you all and Happy new year to everyone,' he told his followers.

International sportsman, Conor McGregor, has been given two months to pay a fine of €400 following a hearing in Blanchardstown District Court today.

(The sportsman may be a lot of things, but short on cash isn't one of them… thankfully.)

The UFC star appeared in court after failing to pay a initial fine for breaking the speed limit on the Naas Road in March of this year.

.After entering a guilty plea, the 29-year-old Dublin native told the court he can't remember why he didn't pay the first fine in April.

After being told he could pay his €400 fine in instalments  McGregor said: "I apologise and I want to show my respect by showing up today. I apologise."

According to The Journal, the sports star's case had been adjourned on two previous occasions after McGregor failed to appear.

Conor McGregor left many viewers feeling cold after a preview of his interview on this Friday's The Late Late Show was released.

In the clip, the MMA icon can be heard describing a recent incident where he was caught using a homophobic slur as an example of people throwing him 'under a bus.'

'I meant no disrespect to nobody of the LGBT community,' the clip shows.

'I didn’t mean no disrespect.'

'You’d swear I was screaming at two people of the same sex kissing.'

Twitter have reacted en masse to the apology, and many feel it simply isn't good enough:

Conor McGregor has apologised for using a homophobic slur in a recent viral video, insisting he mean no “disrespect” to the LGBT community.

In a pre-recorded interview due to be aired on The Late Late Show this Friday, the MMA star tells Ryan Tubridy that he is sorry for saying the word “f****t” and would like to try “move on from it.”

"I have to put my hands up there. I was whispering in his ear and I was speaking on that and I said what I said. I meant no disrespect to nobody of the LGBT community. I didn’t mean no disrespect.”

The Crumlin native went on to say how he had campaigned for a 'Yes' vote in the 2015 marriage referendum and argued that people just want to throw him “under the bus.”

“It is another one where things just get blown out and they love to just, any chance they get they love to throw me under the bus. It is what it is.”

“I’ll just say sorry for what I said and that’s it and try to move on from it.”

Understandably, many people were not satisfied by the seemingly uninspired apology, with some arguing that he didn't even realise the extent of his wrongdoing.

Conor McGregor doesn't do anything by halves.

From over-priced suits to crystal studded watches, the MMA star has never been afraid to flash the cash – and this weekend, he used his wealth to take christening parties to the next level.

He and girlfriend, Dee Devlin, celebrated their son's baptism in style at Dublin's Luttrellstown Castle on Sunday, and it was just as extravagant as you'd expect. 

 

Conor Jr's Christening! @augustxmcgregor

According to The Independent, the magical setting was transformed into the McGregor's very own carnival, complete with carousels, ferris wheel, bouncy castle and petting zoo.

And while we're guessing five-month-old Conor Jr might be a bit too young to fully appreciate his own party, we're sure the couple's friends and family enjoyed the lavish affair.

With a social media ban in place, guests were forbidden from uploading any personal snaps, though Conor's sisters, Aoife and Erin both shared photos from their nephew's big day.

The Notorious himself also posted some sweet snaps simply captioned 'Mac land'.

So, it's safe to say that following this weekend's events, Conor McGregor really is the man of the moment.

OK, he may have lost to Mayweather, but his larger than life personality, graceful defeat and em, his own range of whiskey, have capapulated the Crumlin native to new levels of fame.

A post shared by Eamon (@eamonjohn) on

Love him or hate him, the UFC champion has nothing but pride for his home country and just like many national treasures that came before him, one man believes Conor's achievements should be honoured in the form of a life-sized gold statue (afterall, we did it for Joe Dolan, so why not?).

Youtuber, Eamon John, built the impressive statue in his back garden in Clontarf, and we have to admit, it's pretty incredible.

Inspired by an Instagram post under which The Notorious commented “someone make that into a staue,” the 21-year-old decided to do just that.

"The reason I'm doing this is because I ain't got no job and I'm trying to figure out what to do," he explained in the video.

"I saw Conor McGregor posted an Instagram photo in that position, saying 'someone make a statue out of this'.

"Then a few weeks later he posted a gold statue in a shop of a jaguar or something and said 'make my statue this colour' – so I was kinda like OK.”

Bravo Eamon. We reckon Conor is going to love this.
