Conor McGregor posts cute family snaps with sons Conor Jr and Rian as UFC star plots cage return

CONOR McGREGOR posed for photos with sons Conor Jr and Rian as the trio enjoyed the hot weather abroad.

The Irishman, 34, is a busy man as he is preparing for a return to the UFC early next year.

He is also filming ahead of his movie debut in Road House, alongside Jake Gyllenhaal.

But he also has time for his family, and he has shared cute snaps alongside sons Conor Jr, 5, and Rian, 1.

Dad McGregor wore a colourful shirt and matching socks, while Rian rocked a blue shirt and cream shorts.

Conor Jr, meanwhile, tried to out-do his dad and put on an eye-catching outfit.

McGregor captioned the series of pictures: "Blondie crew."

The Notorious is in the final stages of recovering from the horrific broken leg he suffered in his trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier last July.

However, McGregor is unable to return to action until April at the earliest after leaving the United States Anti-Doping Agency's drug testing pool.

USADA rules stipulate fighters who retire or remove themselves from the pool are required to be enrolled for a minimum of six months before they return.

Who McGregor fights on his return is yet to be seen.

But he has been very vocal on social media, slamming stars such as  Islam Makhachev and Alexander Volkanovski.
