MARCH 2020: Megan Fox And Machine Gun Kelly Meet On A Movie Set
Fox, 34 and Kelly, 30 met in early 2020 on the set of their thriller film, Midnight In The Switchgrass. According to Deadline, the filming (which took place in Puerto Rico) was shut down after only two weeks due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Shortly after, a source told E! that the pair had been “hanging out a lout since their movie was shut down,” commenting that “they are intrigued by each other and having a lot of fun.”
MAY 15 2020: The First Romance Rumours
Rumours of a romance first sparked when Daily Mail published photos of the pair grabbing food together in Calabasas.
At this point, there had been no official divorce announcement from Fox and her then-husband, Brian Austin Green. However, both had been spotted out without their wedding rings in previous months.
The next day, Green posted a cryptic Instagram message, marking his wife’s birthday.
“Eventually butterflies get bored sitting on a flower for too long,” he wrote alongside a photo of a butterfly on a flower. “They start feeling smothered. It’s a great big world and they want to experience it,” the post read.
MAY 18, 2020
Just three days later, Green made a statement on his podcast …with Brian Austin Green. Here, he confirmed that he and Fox had been on a break since December 2019.
Recalling a conversation he had with Fox, he said:
“She said, ‘I realised when I was out of the country working alone that I feel more like myself and I liked myself better during that experience and I think that might be something worth trying for me. I was shocked and I was upset about it, but I can’t be upset at her because she didn’t ask to feel that way. It wasn’t a choice she made, that’s the way she honestly felt.”
In the same episode, he addressed the recent photos of Fox and Kelly out together.
“I’ve never met him, but Megan and I have talked about him. They’re friends at this point, and from what she’s expressed, he’s a really nice, genuine guy, and I trust her judgement,” he said.
MAY 20, 2020
Two days later, Kelly released the music video for the first single on his upcoming album, ‘Bloody Valentine.’ In the video, Fox starred as Kelly’s girlfriend, with the pair almost sharing a kiss. This succeeded in adding even more fuel to the fire about their potential relationship.

JUNE 15, 2020
Around a month later, the Daily Mail posted more photos of the pair. This time, they were seen kissing and holding hands. These photos came in one day after Green was seen having lunch with model, Courtney Stodden.
Later that day, Kelly made a post seemingly alluding to his new relationship. The singer tweeted a lyric from one of his songs, “I’m calling you girlfriend, what the f*ck. Life imitated art on that one,” he wrote.
JUNE 16, 2020
According to a source who spoke to E!, Green was not planning on filing for divorce, despite Fox’s new relationship.
“He wants to give Megan space and is hopeful they will find their way back to one another. It’s been hard to see her get back out in the dating world, but he is trying to fill his time with his kids and friends.” he wouldn’t be filing for divorce just yet.
JUNE 17, 2020
The next day, Us Weekly reported that Kelly and Fox were officially dating.
“Megan and MGK have gotten more serious and are officially dating and referring to one another as boyfriend and girlfriend,” a source told the outlet. “They’re enjoying spending more and more time together and have a strong connection.”
JULY 22, 2020
Fox and Kelly give their first interview on the podcast, Give Them Lala…With Randall. Fox reflected on the moment she found out she’d be starring alongside him in their film.
“Because I knew—I could feel that some wild shit was going to happen to me from that meeting, but I wasn’t yet sure what. I just felt it like, deep in my soul—that something was going to come from that,” she added.
After just two days of filming, Fox said she felt an astrological connection between them.
“I knew right away that he was what I call a twin flame. Instead of a soul mate, a twin flame is actually where a soul has ascended into a high enough level that it can be split into two different bodies at the same time. So we’re actually two halves of the same soul, I think. And I said that to him almost immediately, because I felt it right away.”
JULY 28, 2020
The pair went Instagram official a week later, with Kelly posting a black-and-white mirror selfie to mark the occasion. He captioned the photo, “Waited for eternity to find you again.” The post has since been deleted.
AUGUST 5, 2020
A week later, Fox went Instagram official on her own page, this time however, it caused some drama.
Fox shared a similar black-and-white mirror selfie captioned, “Achingly Beautiful Boy, my heart is yours.”
Despite the fact she had disabled comments on the post, Green still managed to weigh in. He copied Fox’s caption, posting his own Instagram of his four sons (three of which he shares with Fox), on Instagram and Twitter. “Achingly beautiful boys…… My heart is yours,” he wrote alongside headshots of sons Kassius, 18; Noah, 7; Bodhi, 6; and Journey, 4.
Unsurprisingly, this made major waves online, as it became clear that Green was struggling to deal with Megan’s new relationship.
AUGUST 14, 2020
Kelly’s devotion to Fox only became more and more obvious, especially after he appeared on Buzzfeed’s Celeb Thirst Tweet segments.
“Machine Gun Kelly I just wanna let you know am free this Sunday to go on a date just let me know if ur free Sunday cause I am free and would like to take you on a date,” one fan wrote.
“I’m locked in already right now. No dates for me. Probably ever,” Kelly responded.
AUGUST 25, 2020
Fox makes a public statement to Entertainment Tonight which seems to hint toward Green’s public attacks.
“For whatever reason, people are very trigger happy to call me stupid or call me vain or call me a slut, which is crazy. I was in the same relationship for 15 years, you know? It’s bizarre, this image that gets projected onto me that people have just accepted and that’s lived for over a decade and that I never really did anything to earn in the first place.”
SEPTEMBER 10, 2020
A source tells Us Weekly went the pair aren’t rushing things.
“MGK and Megan aren’t seriously talking about getting engaged, married or having kids right now and they’re not there yet.

At the same time, another source told E! that the couple is now serious about planning a life together.
“They see themselves as soulmates and life partners. They are taking steps every day to build on that. Machine Gun Kelly has met her kids and is becoming a part of their lives. She wanted to make sure it was going in a serious direction and they both feel very strongly that it is.”
FEBRUARY 2021
Despite the serious (and very public) nature of their relationship, a source tells Entertainment Tonight that Fox isn’t ready for marriage just yet.

JANUARY 2022: The Pair Get Engaged
After just under two years of dating, on January 13, both Kelly and Fox shared on their Instagram that they are now engaged.
On Fox’s since deleted Instagram, she shared an incredibly sweet video of the proposal, where Kelly can be seen getting down on one knee in front of a very surprised Fox, with an engagement ring box in his hands.
“In July of 2020 we sat under this banyan tree. We asked for magic,” Fox’s caption reads. “We were oblivious to the pain we would face together in such a short, frenetic period of time. Unaware of the work and sacrifices the relationship would require from us but intoxicated off of the love. And the karma.
“Somehow a year and a half later, having walked through hell together, and having laughed more than I ever imagined possible, he asked me to marry him. And just as in every lifetime before this one, and as in every lifetime that will follow it, I said yes,” she wrote, adding, “…and then we drank each other’s blood.1.11.22”
As for Kelly, he shared a video of Fox’s unique ring that he designed with jewellery designer, Stephen Webster. The ring itself is dual-stoned—featuring a large emerald diamond alongside a white diamond—and holds great symbolic value as the gems represent each of their birthstones.
“‘Yes, in this life and every life’ 
beneath the same branches we fell in love under, I brought her back to ask her to marry me,” Kelly wrote.
“I know tradition is one ring, but I designed it with Stephen Webster to be two: the emerald (her birth stone) and the diamond (my birth stone) set on two magnetic bands of thorns that draw together as two halves of the same soul forming the obscure heart that is our love. 1-11-2022”
AUGUST 17 2022: Megan And MGK Shut Down Breakup Rumours
Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly have never been the type to keep things low-key—so when whispers of a split started circulating, they let their latest date do the talking. The couple was spotted arm-in-arm on a casual lunch outing in Brentwood, California, putting any breakup speculation to rest. And in true Fox-Kelly fashion, they made a statement while doing it.
Breakup rumors had been swirling for months, fueled by their reduced social media presence as a couple and Kelly’s raw confession in his Hulu documentary, Life in Pink, where he revealed a deeply personal moment of crisis. He recalled a distressing night when, amid a phone call with Fox, he nearly attempted suicide, only to be stopped by a gun malfunction.
Despite the online speculation, sources told TMZ that all is well between the two. Their recent dip in PDA? Chalk it up to busy schedules and parenting duties rather than relationship trouble.
FEBRUARY 10 2023: Megan Sparks Breakup Rumours
One day, they’re holding hands at a Super Bowl party. The next, Megan Fox is dropping cryptic Beyoncé lyrics and scrubbing Machine Gun Kelly from her Instagram. If anyone knows how to keep fans guessing, it’s this couple.
On February 10, Fox and MGK were all loved-up at Drake’s Super Bowl bash in Scottsdale, Arizona, spotted cozying up and making a public display of their still-burning flame. But less than 24 hours later, the actress sent the internet into a spiral. First, she wiped all traces of Kelly from her Instagram. Then, she posted a series of smoldering mirror selfies from the night—captioned with a line from Beyoncé’s Lemonade opener, Pray You Catch Me: “You can taste the dishonesty / It’s all over your breath.”
For fans, the message was loud and clear. Given that Lemonade is the ultimate breakup album—packed with themes of betrayal and infidelity—speculation erupted that Kelly and Fox had not only split, but that he may have been unfaithful. Adding fuel to the fire? Fox promptly deleted her entire Instagram account.

“There has been no third-party interference in this relationship of any kind,” Fox wrote in a Notes app statement, screenshot and all. “That includes, but is not limited to … actual humans, DMs, AI bots or succubus demons.” She then took aim at the media firestorm, quipping, “While I do hate to rob you of running random baseless news stories that would have been much more accurately written by ChatGPT, you need to let this story die and leave all of these innocent people alone now.”
Despite her public denial, insiders told People that Fox and Kelly were still “not in a good place” and that her post was, in part, an attempt to walk back the social media chaos she had unintentionally ignited. “She initially thought there was cheating, and now she’s backtracking a bit,” the source claimed. “She regrets making it all so public, but she was really upset in the moment.”
Their relationship has always been intense, and according to the source, “it wouldn’t be shocking if they were back together completely by the end of the week.”
