Nikita Hand may be awarded damages against a couple who provided affidavits on behalf of Conor McGregor, after the High Court ruled against the couple.

Nikita Hand is set to be awarded damages after her former neighbors, Samantha O’Reilly and Steven Cummins, failed to respond to a lawsuit, with the pair previously scheduled to testify in Conor McGregor’s appeal.

Nikita Hand has secured default judgments against a couple who provided affidavits suggesting she was assaulted by her then-partner hours after she claimed to have been violently raped by Conor McGregor.
