Conor McGregor has been dropped as the face of Proper No. 12 Whiskey. This is coming after he was found liable in a sexual assault case, and fans have been reacting.
According to Proximo Spirits, the distributor and owner of Proper No. Twelve, there are no current plans to use Mr. McGregor’s name and likeness in the marketing of the brand going forward, and his face will be scrubbed from their Instagram account.
Recall that Conor was accused of raping Nikita Hand in a Dublin hotel room in 2018, and last Friday, a civil court jury awarded Hand nearly 250,000 euros (roughly $263,600) after finding McGregor liable for assault, according to the Courts Service in Ireland.
McGregor addressed the incident and the verdict on X, “I have instructed my legal team to appeal the decision.”
WOW.
