Iconic Riverdance star Michael Flatley could challenge MMA champion Conor McGregor in a bid to become the next president of Ireland.
The Lord of Dance's political ambitions were revealed during a High Court planning battle concerning his Castlehyde mansion in Cork.
Flatley, 67, who held the Guinness World Record for tap dancing 35 times per second, notified the court of a 'material change in circumstances'.
In doing so, he gave away his plan to move back to Ireland to run in the October 2025 presidential elections.
An affidavit, signed by Flatley's solicitor Maxwell Mooney, was submitted to the court stating that the Irish-American is 'to seek nominations to run for president of Ireland'.
