We all promptly stopped hat shopping when Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly confirmed they had called off their engagement, as it seemed that the complex couple were over for good.
The Transformers actress scrubbed all traces of her fiancé – whose real name is Colson Baker – from her Instagram profile last year, while they were supposedly preparing to get hitched.
Fans had eagerly been waiting to see what a wedding between Fox and the rapper would look like, especially as their 2022 engagement was so…unique.
The pair announced that they had sipped on each other’s blood as a ‘ritual’ after MGK popped the question, while he also slipped a ring onto his bride-to-be’s finger which causes physical pain to take off. Romance, eh?

Fox then seemed to distance herself from the relationship and began showing up to events solo, before she confirmed that they had ended their engagement during an appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast in March.
The film star kept the details to a minimum and said she didn’t want to spill anything else, as the ins and outs of her love affair with her ‘twin flame’ was ‘not for public consumption’.
Fox then appeared to be embracing single life as she partied at Coachella, while telling fans that they should ‘not waste their energy on boys’.
“All they’re going to do is drain you,” she added. “Just move on. Invest in yourself.”
Her ex-fiancé MGK even commented on the video saying, “PREACH”, so it seemed like the couple were definitely over.

But, the stars are now said to be ‘taking things one day at a time’ as they try and work out how they want to move forward, nearly two months after it was announced their engagement was off.
After being seen getting cosy and slow dancing at the Stagecoach Festival in Indio, California, last weekend together, it seems that sparks are flying once again between Fox and MGK.
A source told Entertainment Tonight that the pair are ‘continuing to go to therapy’ while working on being honest about their feelings and keeping up consistent communication.

The insider told the publication: “They have dealt with some trust issues, but are both making a continual effort to stay committed to their mutual end goal of being together forever.
“They are also respecting each other’s space when needed, which is key for them during this time.”
Fox is parent to children Noah, 11, Bodhi, 10, and Journey, 7, who she shares with ex-husband Brian Austin Green, while MGK has daughter Casie, 14, from a previous relationship – and the kids are a big part of the pair’s future plans.
“Overall, they’re doing their best to make things work and keeping their kids in mind as well,” the source added.
