Fox and Machine Gun Kelly got fans buzzing when they first stepped out together in May 2020. A few days after their public outing, Brian Austin Green confirmed that he and Fox had separated in December 2019 after nearly 10 years of marriage. Fox and MGK further ramped up dating rumors when the rapper dropped his music video for “Bloody Valentine,” starring the “Transformers” actress. In June 2020, the two basically confirmed their romance when they were spotted sharing a kiss outside of a bar in LA, and they’ve shared many moments since.
Fox and MGK took their relationship to the next level when they announced their engagement on Instagram on Jan. 11, 2022. “And just as in every lifetime before this one, and as in every lifetime that will follow it, I said yes,” Fox captioned her video post of the proposal. MGK also posted a video of the engagement ring, revealing that he helped design the beautiful piece of jewelry. “I know tradition is one ring, but I designed it with Stephen Webster to be two: the emerald (her birth stone) and the diamond (my birth stone) set on two magnetic bands of thorns that draw together as two halves of the same soul forming the obscure heart that is our love.”
In February 2023, however, the relationship appeared to hit a rough patch when Fox shared a photo to her Instagram with the caption, “I can taste the dishonesty / it’s all over your breath,” a line from Beyoncé’s “Lemonade.” She also unfollowed MGK and deleted all the photos of him, and later wiped her entire account. A source told People at the time that they “haven’t officially called off the engagement,” but Fox “took her ring off.” The source also said that the pair “have had issues in the past,” but “things seem pretty serious this time.”
However, the pair were seen spending time together in Hawaii in April in photos shared by TMZ, indicating that their relationship isn’t over yet.
