Bridges linked up with UFC legend McGregor at his pub, the Black Forge Inn.

And she even sank a pint of Forged Irish Stout – Notorious’ take on an iconic pint of Guinness.

Bridges appeared to have a whale of a time as she posed for several photos with McGregor.

But internet trolls quickly began commenting, with one saying “Out together AGAIN.”

This forced Bridges to defend her relationship with married McGregor, replying: “That’s what friends do.”

The Aussie bruiser also revealed she is taking advice from McGregor on life after the ring.

She told Lucky Block: “Conor’s team reached out to me and just asked me if I was going to the AJ fight and then if I was interested in collaborating.

“He is so caring and he just wants everyone to be okay. He’s really caring and obviously he’s the life of the party.

“While he’s doing all that, he’s definitely thinking of others around him and just making sure everyone’s okay.

“He’s nice, fun, supportive and really, really positive. I do feel sorry for him in a sense, especially in public.

“There’s so much pressure and he could probably never just be Conor McGregor.

“He always supports whatever I’m doing, so f**k the haters. You look up to someone like him with the brand that he’s built and the success he’s made.

“I know that I put in a lot of work to be where I am, so I can only imagine the work that he puts in.

“Really, it’s all about being yourself with a dash of something extra.”
