The pair met in March 2020 while filming a crime thriller movie, Midnight in the Switchgrass. The costars quickly began spending time together, partaking in long phone chats that Kelly previously said felt like five minutes.

“I love a dark fairytale,” The “emo girl” singer said in an interview with GQ.

According to the interview, the couple’s first real date involved Kelly driving the Jennifer’s Body actress in a 1974 Cadillac convertible to a cliffside picnic, complete with a blanket and roses followed by a rooftop makeout session set to pop punk music.  

In summer 2020, they were spotted on multiple occasions showing PDA around Los Angeles. 

Fox has described their relationship as “very intense” and non-traditional.

“Our souls chose this to absolutely have to face our shadow selves,” said Fox, “to face things about ourselves we didn’t want to have to know, that we tried to push away.”

When Did MGK Propose to Megan Fox?

On January 11, 2022, Kelly asked Fox to marry him in Puerto Rico, the same location where they became acquainted on the set of Midnight in the Switchgrass. Notably, Fox posted a video of the proposal to her Instagram and said that to celebrate they “drank each other’s blood.”

The actress wrote an affectionate caption about the singer in a Valentine’s Day Instagram post, in the same quasi-poetic style of her other social media uploads.  

“There goes my heart manifest outside of my body,” Fox wrote. “Happy Valentine’s Day rehab barbie.” 

Are Megan Fox and MGK Married?

As of March 2024, the couple is not married and Fox has reminded MGK she’s not yet his wife.  The two were mislabeled while sitting courtside at an NBA all-star game on February 20, 2022, with the announcer calling Fox the “wife” of Kelly as the couple appeared on the jumbotron screen. Fox reacted by laughing and whispering the words “I’m no t…” to Kelly before covering her mouth.

Machine Gun Kelly spoke about plans for the wedding in an appearance on The Late Late Show With James Corden on February 24, 2022, noting the difficulty of planning a goth wedding.

When asked about when they plan to tie the knot, Kelly said, “when they can build me a red river with like gothic– the location is hard. Trying to find a spot that’s matching my artistic [vision].” 

Are Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly Still Together?

Megan and MGK seemingly hinted that they were still together at the beginning of 2024 with various public outings, including an appearance at a Super Bowl afterparty on February 11. However, when Megan was asked about the status of their relationship in a March 20, 2024, interview, she played coy.

“What I’ve learned about being in this relationship is that it’s not for public consumption,” she said on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast. “So I think as of now, I don’t have a comment on the status of the relationship, per se. What I can say is that [he] is what I refer to as being my twin soul, and there will always be a tether to him, no matter what. I cannot say for sure what the capacity will be, but I will always be connected to him somehow. Beyond that, I’m not willing to explain.”

Podcast host Alex Cooper pointed out that, to her knowledge, Megan and MGK “were engaged, then I think called it off,” to which Megan confirmed, “All those things you said were accurate things that have occurred.” However, she did not specify whether the engagement was still called off at that point.

Prior to this cryptic interview, the couple had sparked breakup rumors on a number of occasions. During a red carpet appearance at the April 2022 Daily Front Row Awards, the couple sent rumors flying as the Jennifer’s Body actress appeared to snub her soon-to-be husband as he leaned in for a kiss. 

The viral footage shows an uninterested Megan appear to dodge a sweet moment with her fiancé physically. The text over the footage reads, “Megan Fox be like …” with a voiceover from HBO’s Euphoria that says, “First of all, ew. Second of all … ew.” MGK appeared to laugh off the awkward moment before hitting the red carpet with his future wife.

Megan put a stop to the ongoing split rumors when she shared a sweet tribute to her soon-to-be husband on his 32nd birthday that month.

“You’re such a gorgeous soul,” she wrote in the moving tribute, “I’m honored to love you and to be the recipient of your love.”

Megan sent breakup rumors swirling again in October 2022, when she shared a series of Instagram selfies wearing several rings on her left hand, but her ring finger was bare with no sign of the diamond and emerald engagement bauble from MGK. However, days later, she and MGK both attended the TIME100Next Gala in New York City before donning multiple couples Halloween costumes later that month.

By the end of the year, the couple still appeared to be going strong when they were seen taking Megan’s kids, Noah, Bodhi and Journey, holiday shopping in December 2022, according to photos published by HollywoodLife. The Till Death actress shares her sons with ex-husband Brian Austin Green. 

However, Megan joked that she was “seeking a girlfriend” in a *very* flirty Instagram post on December 30. “Please submit applications in the DMs,” she prompted her Instagram followers in the caption.

As they rang in the new year, Megan and MGK celebrated their one-year engagement anniversary by showing off her flashy engagement ring on January 11, 2023.

“One year ago under a banyan tree,” the rocker wrote alongside a video of himself holding Megan’s hand.

The on-again, off-again cycle continued after Megan deleted all photos of MGK from her Instagram account on February 12, 2023, and posted a photo with a cryptic caption.

“You can taste the dishonesty/ it’s all over your breath,” she captioned the since-deleted post, which is also from Beyoncé's song “Pray You Catch Me.”

Megan seemingly deleted her account hours after her post, as her Instagram page was no longer activated.

The following day, the pair were seen leaving a marriage counseling office in Agoura Hills, California. Megan looked emotional in the photos obtained by In Touch.

Nevertheless, a source exclusively told In Touch at the time that the twin flames were “barely hanging on” and had a “toxic” relationship. 

“[Megan] is over his immature and ridiculous antics,” the insider noted. “The tension is at a boiling point.”

After a series of romantic outings, including an April 2023 trip to Hawaii, Megan once again hinted at a split in June when she shared a bikini selfie with the caption, "ace of cups + the star."

According to Astrology.com, the Tarot card combination she referenced "suggests a time of emotional fulfillment and spiritual healing."

"This Tarot card combination signifies that we should have faith in the journey we are on and trust that the universe is supporting us," the excerpt continues. "It may also indicate the need to let go of the past and embrace new beginnings with an open heart." 

However, several sightings at the beginning of 2024 seemed to assure fans that the duo had worked things out.
