Megan Fox left fans stunned after she opened up about her relationship with Shia LaBeouf.
This comes after breakup rumors about Fox and Machine Gun Kelly sprung up earlier this year.
And her actions since then have had people in a spin.
Especially now that she’s opened up about a prior high-profile pairing …
Scroll on for the full story…
Now, Kelly and Fox aren’t exactly your most conventional couple.
The eccentric musician, who is responsible for hit tracks such as “Wild Boy” and “Till I Die,” started dating Fox a few months after she had separated from her husband of more than a decade, Brian Austin Green.
The pair met on the set of the Indie flick, Midnight In The Switchgrass, in March 2020…
And immediately hit it off, with a source telling E! News that they had “been hanging out a lot since their movie was shut down,” and that “the downtime has been good for them… They are intrigued by each other and having a lot of fun.”
The pair were frequently spotted out and about together…
And were even seen sharing the odd kiss here and then – yet, regardless of all of this, there was no official confirmation of their blossoming relationship.
A couple of months on from this, the actress’ now ex-husband, whom she shares 3 children with, addressed the romance rumors.
Recalling the moment Fox told him about Kelly – real name Colson Baker – he said on his podcast: “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.”
But he admitted that Kelly is a “really nice, genuine guy.”
“I’ve never met him, but Megan and I have talked about him,” Austin said. “They’re friends at this point, and from what she’s expressed, he’s a really nice, genuine guy, and I trust her judgment.”
And later that month, when Kelly released the music video for his new song, “Bloody Valentine”…
All of the romance rumors between him and Fox were unanimously confirmed.
Fox starred in the video as Kelly’s domineering girlfriend…
And even shared an almost-kiss with the musician, thus stoking further speculation about their relationship.
A month later, Kelly seemed to allude to his new relationship, tweeting a lyric from the new track.
“I’m calling you girlfriend, what the f**k.’ Life imitated art on that one,” he wrote.
And, a few days later, 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.”
Ever since the pair seem to have been going strong.
In their first joint interview together, Fox said she felt an “astrological connection” between them.
“I knew right away that he was what I call a twin flame,” she recalled. “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.”
However, some aspects of their relationship have certainly raised eyebrows…
The internet exploded in July 2020 when Kelly opened up about a rather intimate detail surrounding their courtship.
In a virtual interview with Teen Vogue, Kelly expressed his affection for Fox’s feet.
Yes, her feet.
“It’s no secret. I think feet are beautiful,” he declared. “And I think Megan has the most beautiful feet that exist.”
He also admitted to asking Fox to highlight her feet for the video with a cameo.
“I was like, ‘Megan, you already know what I’m about to ask you.’ And she was like, ‘Yeah, I literally got a pedicure just because I knew you were going to ask me that’,” he explained.
Kelly has also talked about the things he’s done for love in an interview with Jimmy Falon on The Tonight Show.
And honestly, it’s a little crazy.
After winning a beer pong match one night, Kelly went home with Fox, and did something that he tried to play off…
“I went home and Travis got me this Knife that had an engravement from the new album on it, and I was like ‘check this out this is sick’ and I threw it up and it came and stuck in my hand,” he said.
“The next morning as soon as she left I was like ‘yo I need stitches real quick, I’ve got a bruised coccyx and a knife in my hand,” he comically told Falon.
Ouch.
This was at the time he’d only just started dating Fox, too.
But, as crazy as Kelly’s attempts to impress Fox may be, it seems that they have paid off as…
Kelly and Fox then announced their engagement.
Kelly proposed to Fox on January 11 at the Spa Botánico at the Ritz-Carlton Dorado Beach in Puerto Rico, the Daily Mail reports.
Fox shared the exciting news on Instagram with a video of the special moment when Kelly got down on one knee.
Alongside the video, she shared a lengthy caption revealing details about their relationship.
Fox wrote: “In July of 2020 we sat under this banyan tree. We asked for magic.”
“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,” she continued.
“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.”
Kelly also took to Instagram to share the news.
Sharing a picture of Fox’s engagement ring, Kelly revealed to fans that he designed it himself with “two halves of the same soul.”
He began his caption by writing: “‘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 then wrote that he knows the tradition is to have one ring, however, he designed the ring himself, with help from Stephen Webster, to be two.
His reason for the 2 rings is because they are “two halves of the same soul.”
One ring has an emerald stone, which is Fox’s birthstone, and the other ring has a diamond, which is Kelly’s birthstone.
Each of the stones is “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.”
It’s clear to see the couple was very loved up.
But some feel as though the couple are a little too intense?
Megan Fox opened up to Glamour UK and shared some pretty strange rituals she and Kelly get up to…
One of the most controversial is that they often drink each other’s blood.
“Yeah. So, I guess to drink each other’s blood might mislead people or people are imagining us with goblets and we’re like Game of Thrones, drinking each other’s blood,” she admitted.
Adding: “It’s just a few drops, but yes, we do consume each other’s blood on occasion for ritual purposes only.”
Fox then discussed the differences between herself and Kelly, calling him “haphazard and hectic.”
“I’m much more controlled. I read tarot cards and I’m into astrology and I’m doing all these metaphysical practices and meditations. And I do rituals on new moons and full moons, and all these things.”
She continued: “And so, when I do it, it’s a passage or it is used for a reason. And it is controlled where it’s like, ‘Let’s shed a few drops of blood and each drink it.’
“He’s much more haphazard and hectic and chaotic, where he’s willing to just cut his chest open with broken glass and be like, ‘Take my soul.'”
Yep, not what people are used to hearing.
But, that’s not all people are shocked by…
Fox also opened up about their first date, and the strange questions she asked him…
Speaking to E! News she admitted: “If you know me and I know you, it’s impossible for me to not know almost everything about you.”
Explaining further, she said she asked MGK: “‘Were you breastfed by your mother?'”
She later said that she thought it was a “great question,” adding that “it has a lot to do with your psychology and your temperament. So I ask things like that.”
When it comes to MGK, she clearly knows everything possible about the star…
So much so, even he is surprised by her knowledge, addressing it in a GQ interview, saying: “If you were my Jeopardy! partner you would honestly win every single category,” he shared. “You are an almanac, encyclopedia, and dictionary all in one.”

But rumors began circulating in August that the couple was reportedly heading towards a breakup…
As Fox has been posting photos of herself online without her boyfriend.
According to TMZ, the actress didn’t show up to his hometown show in Cleveland for his concert.
Adding more fuel to the rumors.
However, sources close to the couple told the media outlet that “they’re doing just fine — no big issues. They obviously can’t be together 24/7 — both of them work and have kids, but we’re told they’re solid.”
Well, that initially put the rumors to bed!
It’s clear they’re a very intense couple, so one bizarre display of affection by Fox didn’t come as a surprise…
The pair will always respond to one another on social media, and Fox hit the comment section of MGK’s latest Instagram post to show some love…
At least we think she did.
MGK posted a photo of himself at the Time100 Next Gala, and Fox was straight on it.
“Never has anyone with better bone structure walked this earth. Exquisitely, devastatingly handsome. And six foot five? Kill me or get me pregnant. Those are the only options,” Fox said.
Understandably, her comment got a lot of replies from fans, one said: “Omg the babies you would have! Gorgeous gorgeous lucky babes. Fingers crossed.”
“Girl bye with that you are so dark-sided,” another commented.
You can see the post here.
And the pair stirred up the internet even more with their Halloween costumes.
Taking to Instagram, Fox posted a series of photos of her and MGK dressed as Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee, with the caption: “But are these even costumes.”
However, their Halloween ‘tribute’ didn’t exactly go down as well as they’d hoped.
Fox wore a blonde wig and latex dress, while MGK had fake sleeve tattoos and donned dark locks for the outfit.
Many people took to Twitter to voice their opinions on the increasing number of people dressing up as the pair…
“The amount of people dressing up as Pam and Tommy? Aka Pam and her abuser? it’s not a cute couple look, just shows y’all don’t give a s*** about victims of abuse,” one wrote.
Others blamed the Disney+ series Pam & Tommy for bringing their relationship back into the forefront.
Lily James and Sebastian Stan played the duo in the series, but Fox and MGK have faced backlash online for their decision to dress up as the couple.
Fans shared their outrage at the couple’s “insensitive” get-up in the comment section of her Instagram post.
“This is so dumb and insensitive,” one fan wrote.
Another added: “Tommy hit on Pamela, that’s not cool!!! stop with that.”
“Tomy Lee abused Pamela Anderson… y’all are sick,” a third commented.
Another called them the “Wish version” of Pam and Tommy.
It’s clear their costumes didn’t go down well with fans.
Which is understandable, as you will probably already be aware that Tommy was reportedly abusive to Pam…
He even spent 6 months in prison for felony spousal battery after their relationship broke down due to their s*x tape being leaked.
You can see their costumes here.
However, there are now more problems for the couple.
Including rumors that the pair have split.
Fox recently took to Instagram to quote Beyonce’s lyrics about a breakup.
Then wiped all evidence of Kelly from her page.
Fox took to Instagram to share a post of her in a bathroom with other men.
With the caption: “You can taste the dishonesty / it’s all over your breath.”
People also noticed a poster for a domestic abuse charity in the background.
Which some read as a sign.
Fox also unfollowed everybody except for three accounts.
Eminem, Harry Styles and Timothée Chalamet.
And shortly after, she deactivated her Instagram.
As of yet, there is no official confirmation of a breakup.
But some were speculating that Kelly had cheated on her with his guitarist Sophie Lloyd.
Page Six claims fans were asking about the rumor on Fox’s post.
Fox reportedly replied to one of the comments, saying: “Maybe I got with Sophie.”
She added a flame emoji to her controversial comment.
But then, Sophie herself spoke out…
A statement released by her management to Page Six reads: “Sophie Lloyd is a professional, accomplished musician who has been needlessly dragged into the media based off of meritless accusations made by social media.”
“Any suggestion that she has ever acted in an unprofessional manner or stepped out of her relationship are untrue.”
“It’s disrespectful to her as a female artist and poor journalism and social commentary to be reporting anything else.”
Sophie has also attempted to put the rumors to bed with a sweet Valentine’s Day Instagram Story to her actual partner.
Following that…
Fox returned to Instagram and broke her silence on the cheating allegations.
The actress shared a statement on her Instagram account.
She began by writing that there has “been no third party interference in this relationship of any kind.”
“That includes, but is not limited to…actual humans, DMs, AI bots or succubus demons,” she wrote.
“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.”
But, Megan hasn’t stopped there…
She then commented on Sophie’s Instagram post and addressed her directly.
On a post of Lloyd’s album artwork, Fox commented: “How me making a joke in order to absolve this girl of a hurtful accusation somehow turned into a confirmation of it – I will never understand.”
”Why are people so…so dumb.”
Her comment then went on to directly address Sophie calling her “insanely talented.”
“Welcome to Hollywood. Your first unwarranted PR disaster. You have now been baptized by the flames of fame. It only gets worse from here unfortunately. Just ignore it as much as you can middle finger up.”
Fox then brought the breakup back into the spotlight!
As she was spotted without her engagement ring, according to Page Six.
She was snapped at the Vanity Fair Oscars bash Sunday night in Los Angeles.
She also debuted a fiery new hair color!
And now, an old interview with Megan has thrust a different relationship back into the spotlight.
She spoke with Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live about dating Shia Labeouf.
“I mean, I would confirm that it was romantic,” she admitted.
“I love him, I have never been really quiet about that, I love him.”
What do you think about her admission?
