Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly, the high-profile couple known for their intense romance and poetic expressions, have just revealed they’re expecting their first child together. The actress shared the news on Instagram on November 11, posting a striking photo of herself holding her baby bump. Her caption, “Nothing is ever really lost. welcome back 👼🏼❤️,” paired with lyrics from Kelly’s song “last november,” offered a touching hint at the emotional journey that’s brought them to this new chapter.
A Blended Family Grows
This upcoming addition will make Fox a mother of four and Kelly a father of two, expanding their blended family. Fox, 38, already shares three sons—Noah, 12, Bodhi, 10, and Journey, 8—with her ex-husband, Brian Austin Green. Kelly, 34, has a 15-year-old daughter, Casie, from a previous relationship. Together, they’re eagerly awaiting the arrival of their first child as a couple, marking an exciting milestone in their relationship.
From On-Screen Chemistry to Off-Screen Romance
Fox and Kelly’s romance sparked in March 2020 when they met on the set of the crime thriller Midnight in the Switchgrass. Their chemistry was undeniable, and shortly after Fox’s split from Green, the two went public. Fox made her debut in Kelly’s “Bloody Valentine” music video in May 2020, which brought their burgeoning relationship into the limelight.
In January 2022, the couple got engaged in a memorable moment under a banyan tree—one they’d visited earlier in their relationship. In an Instagram post sharing the news, Fox wrote about their intense journey together, revealing that they had “walked through hell together” yet emerged with an unbreakable bond. The couple even added a signature touch by “drinking each other’s blood” after the proposal.
Overcoming Heartbreak and Loss
Despite their fiery bond, Fox and Kelly’s journey hasn’t been without deep challenges. In November 2023, Fox opened up about a miscarriage they endured, which had a profound impact on them both. In her poetry collection Pretty Boys Are Poisonous, Fox explored the grief and confusion that followed. In one of her poems, she described seeing an ultrasound of a baby girl and expressed her anguish with lines like, “maybe if you hadn’t… maybe if I had…”
Reflecting on the miscarriage, Fox later shared in an interview that it was a heartbreaking experience for them both. “It sent us on a very wild journey together and separately,” she explained, saying it left them questioning the meaning of the experience and why it had happened. In one poem, Fox poignantly described wanting to hold the baby she lost, imagining what her laugh might sound like.
Looking to the Future
While the pain of their shared loss still resonates, this new pregnancy marks a bright new beginning for the couple. Fox had previously hinted at wanting a child with Kelly during an introduction at the 2021 MTV VMAs, where she referred to him as her “future baby daddy” alongside Kourtney Kardashian, who similarly introduced Travis Barker.
This latest announcement brings their journey full circle, from poetry and music to the promise of new life. With Fox’s sons and Kelly’s daughter soon to welcome a new sibling, the couple’s growing family seems to reflect the strength and passion that has defined their relationship from the start.
Fans and friends alike are celebrating the news, looking forward to the newest chapter for Fox and Kelly—a couple whose unique love story continues to captivate Hollywood and beyond.
