Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly

From the moment the Jennifer’s Body star met the rapper born Colson Baker on their shared movie set in 2020, she knew their relationship was destined to become what she called a “once in a lifetime” romance.

Chatting with their Midnight in the Switchgrass director Randall Emmett on his and his then-fiancée Lala Kent‘s podcast in July 2020, Fox recalled inquiring who was going to fill the empty chair on set. “And [Emmett] was like, ‘Oh, we just got Machine Gun Kelly,'” she said, “and immediately, I was like, ‘Uh oh.’ Because I knew, I could feel that some wild s–t was going to happen to me from that meeting but I wasn’t sure what. I just felt it in my solar plexus that something was going to come from that.”

Fox, who quietly separated from husband of nine years and father of their three children Brian Austin Green in late 2019, went on to call MGK her “twin flame,” explaining they were more than soul mates. 

They weren’t shy about showing their love for one another: Fox starred in Kelly’s music video, they got tattoos to mark their romance and made their red carpet debut as a couple before getting engaged in January 2022. 

And while they’ve since split up, they welcomed daughter Saga Blade Fox-Baker in March 2025 and have been coparenting.

“Megan is a great mom,” MGK said on a June 2025 episode of Today. “She’s killing it. I’m so excited.”
