Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly
When the Jennifer’s Body star met rapper Colson Baker on the set of their 2020 film, she quickly sensed that their connection could become what she later described as a “once in a lifetime” romance.
Fox shared the story in July 2020 while speaking with Midnight in the Switchgrass director Randall Emmett on the podcast he hosted with his then-fiancée, Lala Kent. She recalled asking who would occupy an empty chair on the set. Emmett told her, “Oh, we just got Machine Gun Kelly.” Fox immediately felt something was about to happen. “Uh oh,” she remembered saying, explaining that she sensed “some wild s–t” would come from meeting him, even though she did not yet know what it would be. “I just felt it in my solar plexus that something was going to come from that,” she said.
Fox had quietly separated from Brian Austin Green, her husband of nine years and the father of her three children, in late 2019. She later described MGK as her “twin flame,” saying their bond went beyond the idea of soul mates.

The couple embraced their highly public romance. Fox appeared in one of Kelly’s music videos, the pair got matching tattoos and made their red carpet debut together before announcing their engagement in January 2022.
Although Fox and Kelly have since ended their relationship, they welcomed their daughter, Saga Blade Fox-Baker, in March 2025. The former couple are now coparenting.
“Megan is a great mom,” MGK said during a June 2025 appearance on Today. “She’s killing it. I’m so excited.”
