Congratulations are in order for Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly who have revealed they’re expecting their first baby together.
Returning to Instagram after wiping her grid, Megan shared one solitary post to announce the news.
In the first photograph, Megan poses nude covered in black liquid as she cradles her stomach. The shot is also accompanied by a snap of her positive pregnancy test with MGK tagged.
The caption to the post reads: “nothing is ever really lost. welcome back 👼🏼❤️.”
The baby news comes a year on from Megan’s heartbreaking revelation that she had suffered a miscarriage at 10 weeks. She previously opened up about the loss in interviews and her poetry book, Pretty Boys Are Poisonous.
A number of poems in the book reference a miscarriage when she writes about holding her baby “as they rip you from my insides” and “I will pay any price/Tell me please/What is the ransom/For her soul?”
Another line read, “I want to hold your hand / hear your laugh” and “but now / I have to say / goodbye.”
Megan is already a mum-of-three to Noah, 11, Bodhi, 10 and Journey, 7, from her previous marriage to Beverly Hills, 90210 star Brian Austin Green. Despite splitting in 2021, following 11 years of marriage, the couple continue to co-parent and support their kids in a loving environment.
“I think it’s really important when people separate to never ever disparage the other parent or even in a passive aggressive way, make remarks,” Fox commented during an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show.
“I don’t let anything in my energy like that when I’m around my kids because if I don’t accept and love their father I’m rejecting a part of them because he’s a part of who they are always.”
Machine Gun Kelly, real name Colson Baker, also has a teenage daughter, Casie Colson Baker, from a previous relationship. The now 15-year-old has made regular appearances with her dad at events and red carpets, with MGK discussing their close bond on The Drew Barrymore Show in 2021.
“I was just walking behind my daughter in the airport the other day and she just has this walk, it’s this pure bounce, she’s so excited for life like she’s so young in her life,” he said. “I’ve experienced so much in my life. I just pray to every God that exists that she just keeps that bounce forever and that no one interferes with that.”
As for Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly, the couple have had a rocky road since they first met on the set of Midnight in the Switchgrass in 2020. Their connection and subsequent relationship has been intense, to say the least, revealing they drank “each other’s blood” in their engagement announcement in 2022.
“And just as in every lifetime before this one, and as in every lifetime that will follow it, I said yes … and then we drank each other’s blood,” Megan’s post readas she flaunted a ‘toi et moi’ style ring adorned with two pear stones, one emerald and one diamond.
The pair sparked rumours of a split in 2023 when Megan wiped all traces of her fiancé from her Instagram account before sharing a cryptic selfie with lyrics from Beyonce’s ‘Pray You Catch Me’.
“You can taste the dishonesty / it’s all over your breath,” the lyrics read.
Despite confirming the split in an appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, Megan and MGK were soon spotted together again…and the rest is history.
