Megan Fox, 38, and her fiancé, musician Machine Gun Kelly, 34, are expanding their family. The “Jennifer’s Body” star announced her pregnancy with a striking Instagram post on Nov. 11, revealing her baby bump while covered in black liquid. In a touching gesture, Fox tagged Kelly (real name Colson Baker) and held a positive pregnancy test in one of the photos.
This child will be the couple’s first together. Fox is already a mother to three sons — Noah, 12, Bodhi, 10, and Journey, 8 — with her ex-husband, actor Brian Austin Green. Meanwhile, Kelly has a 15-year-old daughter, Casie, from a previous relationship.
Fox captioned her Instagram post with lyrics from Kelly’s song “last november,” a piece inspired by the couple’s experience of pregnancy loss. She wrote, “Nothing is ever really lost. Welcome back 👼🏼❤️,” hinting at the emotional journey the two have shared.
The actress and rapper have been publicly linked since May 2020, when they worked together on the set of “Midnight in the Switchgrass.” Their chemistry soon became apparent, with Fox starring in Kelly’s “Bloody Valentine” music video, which premiered shortly after her separation from Green.
In January 2022, Fox and Kelly announced their engagement under a banyan tree that holds personal significance for the couple. Reflecting on their bond, Fox wrote, “In July of 2020, we sat under this banyan tree. We asked for magic… and the karma.”
She added that the relationship has been challenging and fulfilling, marked by love, laughter, and resilience. In a quirky twist, Fox shared that after accepting Kelly’s proposal, they symbolically “drank each other’s blood.”
Fox hinted at wanting a child with Kelly in 2021, referring to him as her “future baby daddy” during the MTV Video Music Awards. The journey has not been without pain, as Fox previously disclosed a miscarriage in her poetry collection Pretty Boys Are Poisonous, released earlier this year. In one poem, Fox writes poignantly about loss, longing, and her desire to “pay any price” for her lost child’s soul.
