McGregor ordered to pay Nikhita Hand's €1.5m costs in civil rape case

It comes on top of the near €250,000 damages he was ordered to pay last month after a jury found he had assaulted Nikita Hand in a Dublin hotel after a Christmas party in 2018.

The judge also said Hand should not be liable for the costs incurred by McGregor's co-defendant James Lawrence, who the jury found did not assault the hair colourist from Dublin.
