After a rollercoaster four-year romance, Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly have reportedly split once again, following a tense holiday season that sources say led to their ultimate decision to part ways. The pair, who first connected on the set of Midnight in the Switchgrass in 2020, have had a relationship defined by intense passion and equally public turmoil.
“They broke up in late November,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly. “They were trying to make it work again after the pregnancy, but they are both too hot-headed and fell back into their constant fighting. They can’t get on the same page and it’s not easy for them being together.”
Fox and MGK, whose real name is Colson Baker, got engaged in January 2022 in a highly publicized moment that featured the two drinking each other’s blood to “seal” their bond. However, their engagement has been plagued by challenges, including public feuds and rumors of infidelity. Earlier this year, Fox fueled speculation when she deleted all photos of MGK from her Instagram and posted cryptic messages before deactivating her account entirely, as Yahoo!entertainment reported.
Insiders say the couple worked hard to save their relationship. Earlier in 2023, they attended couples therapy and made public appearances, including attending high-profile events like the Grammy Awards and the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue launch. However, the underlying issues of trust and communication reportedly persisted, making it increasingly difficult for the two to move forward together.
In November, Megan shared deeply personal details about their shared struggles in her poetry collection Pretty Boys Are Poisonous. In the book, she revealed that the couple had endured a miscarriage, describing the emotional toll it took on both of them. “I’ve never been through anything like that before in my life,” she revealed while promoting her poetry book Pretty Boys Are Poisonous. “I have three kids, so it was very difficult for both of us.”
MGK later addressed the loss in his music, with a track that spoke to his guilt and grief. While these creative outlets offered some healing, the strain on their relationship was clear.
Fox has three children with her ex-husband, Brian Austin Green, and has previously expressed her desire to maintain stability for her family. Meanwhile, MGK has been navigating his own career demands, which some sources suggest contributed to the disconnect between the two.
Their most recent separation reportedly occurred over Thanksgiving. A source close to the couple said that while they have broken up before and reconciled, this time feels different. “They broke up in late November,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly. “They were trying to make it work again after the pregnancy, but they are both too hot-headed and fell back into their constant fighting. They can’t get on the same page and it’s not easy for them being together.”
The couple has not made any public statements about the split, leaving fans wondering if this is truly the end of their tumultuous relationship or just another chapter in their on-again, off-again saga. Given their history, some speculate that reconciliation might still be possible, but others believe this marks a definitive conclusion to their love story.
For now, Fox and MGK are said to be focusing on their individual paths. Whether their love can survive yet another hurdle remains uncertain, but their breakup has undoubtedly marked the end of an era for one of Hollywood’s most talked-about couples.
