Megan Fox draws line: Custody battle with MGK over unborn child intensifies

Entertainment: Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly (MGK) are navigating a turbulent chapter in their relationship as the actor pursues full custody of their unborn daughter. According to InTouch Weekly, MGK is determined to repair their bond despite Megan’s firm stance on ending their relationship.

The couple's split occurred over Thanksgiving 2024, just weeks after Megan announced her pregnancy. Reports suggest Megan discovered "upsetting material" on MGK’s phone, prompting the separation. This marks a significant development in their on-again, off-again relationship that began in 2020.

Megan open to MGK’s Role as a father

Despite the personal turmoil, Megan Fox reportedly does not intend to keep MGK out of their child’s life. An insider revealed, “As upset as Megan is with MGK, she’s not going to try and deprive him of a relationship with their daughter. She values the bond he shares with his older daughter.” However, Megan remains resolute about seeking full custody, citing concerns about MGK’s capability to provide consistent care for a baby.

The source added that Megan is open to supervised visitation and plans to seek custody payments. With MGK’s estimated net worth of $25 million and a thriving music career, she believes he has the means to support their daughter financially.

MGK hopes for reconciliation

Machine Gun Kelly reportedly wants another chance to salvage the relationship. The insider described the situation as "intense and dramatic," noting that while Megan appears adamant about moving on, the deep connection they share could influence her decision in the future.

“Megan is extremely attached to MGK, and while she’s firm now, no one would be surprised if she reconsidered. Their relationship has always been emotionally charged,” the source explained.

A history of ups and downs

Megan Fox and MGK’s romance began in 2020 and quickly became a high-profile relationship. The pair got engaged in January 2022, but by February 2023, Megan sparked breakup rumors by deleting all traces of MGK from her Instagram. Despite allegations of infidelity, Megan denied that MGK had cheated. After taking a brief break, the couple reconciled in August 2023, only to face renewed challenges later in the year. Megan, who shares three children with her ex-husband Brian Austin Green, is now expecting her fourth child and her first with MGK. MGK, meanwhile, is the father of 15-year-old Casie from a previous relationship.
