Singer Rita Ora has received backlash from Conor McGregor fans after she posted a picture of the pair and captioned it 'Date Night'.

The 27-year-old singer and boxer, 29, were both at the Fashion Awards in London last night. 

The Our Song singer shared two pictures of the pair cuddling up at the event with her 12.4 million Instagram followers and 7 million Twitter followers.

However fans were quick to complain about the caption being 'disrespectful' towards McGregor's partner Dee Devlin and their child. 

McGregor and partner Devlin, who have been together for nine years, welcomed their first son this year.
