Why MGK Said Baby with ‘Megan Fox Is Bittersweet’

Joy and Sorrow in MGK’s Next Chapter

MGK and Megan Fox welcomed their child on March 27. However, the excitement was mixed with heartache.

The couple’s journey toward parenthood has been marked by personal challenges, past losses, and an on-again, off-again relationship. But the question that arises here is, why did he call having a baby with Megan bittersweet?

MGK’s Tribute to Luke “The Dingo” Trembath

Machine Gun Kelly (MGK) has expressed profound grief over the loss of his close friend, Australian snowboarder Luke “The Dingo” Trembath. Luke passed away at the age of 38.

MGK has described Trembath as a brother, highlighting his loyal, charismatic, and humorous nature. Despite the sorrow, MGK found bittersweet comfort in imagining Trembath welcoming his unborn child with Megan Fox.

MGK’s Emotional Instagram Post

Machine Gun Kelly’s close friend, Trembath, died on February 28, 2025. In an Instagram post, MGK wrote, “I’ve lost a lot of friends, but I’ve never lost a brother.”

He praised Trembath as a “true rockstar.” He also reflected on the difficulty of informing his daughter, Cassie, about Trembath’s death, hinting at her deep affection for him.

Connection Between Trembath and MGK’s Daughter

Machine Gun Kelly and his daughter Cassie shared a special bond with Luke. This made his passing particularly hard for MGK’s daughter.

He narrated the moment he had to inform her daughter of Luke’s death. He went on to say, “One of my hardest phone calls because she loved him so much.”

Anticipation of Baby’s Birth Amidst Grief

MGK was certainly going through a complex emotional time. While he anticipated the birth of his child with Megan Fox, he was also grappling with grief over the loss of his close friend.

In his Instagram tribute, MGK shared, “I feel like you’re up there with my new child, dressed up in a hilarious costume, making them laugh, getting ready to send them down. I couldn’t ask for a more bittersweet birth blessing.”

Megan Fox’s Pregnancy Announcement

On November 11, 2024, Megan Fox announced her pregnancy with MGK. She announced this via an Instagram post, which had a black-and-white image of herself covered in black oil.

In the caption, she shared, “Nothing is ever really lost. Welcome back.” The second slide of the Instagram post included a picture of a positive pregnancy test confirming the pregnancy.

Previous Miscarriage and Emotional Healing

In Pretty Boys Are Poisonous, Megan Fox revealed the loss of her baby girl. In the poetry collection, Megan shared that she and MGK experienced a miscarriage, losing a baby girl ten weeks into pregnancy.

She portrayed her sadness through poetry. Writing about the emotional loss, Megan shared, “I close my eyes / and imagine/holding you tight against my chest / as they rip you from my insides.”

Relationship Timeline: From Romance to Separation

Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly met in March 2020, got engaged in the year 2022, and in February 2023, rumors of ongoing tensions within the relationship started surfacing.

The two took a break from each other but remained in communication. In February 2025, Megan informed MGK that they were done for good despite MGK’s persistent efforts to reconcile.

MGK’s Reference to Megan as His Wife

At the 2022 Billboard Music Awards, MGK performed his song Twin Flame. He began the song by saying, “I wrote this song for my wife,” referring to Megan Fox.

This led to speculations about their relationship status. However, neither MGK nor Fox confirmed any news regarding marriage or a union following the event.

The Significance of the Baby’s Birth

For MGK, the birth of his child coincides with the grief he faces upon the loss of his close friend. His emotional state was a mixture of joy and grief as he set for the journey of fatherhood once again.

This experience showcases the complexity of human emotions during defining life events. For MGK, this personal milestone has been intertwined with feelings of sadness.

Megan Fox’s Support System

As the birth of her fourth child approached, Megan Fox heavily relied on her older sister for support. Kristi, who’s 12 years older than Megan, has been a source of consistent guidance throughout Megan’s life.

Kristi is a professional school guidance counselor. However, she doesn’t shy away from stepping into the spotlight to support Megan during this significant time.

Co-Parenting Amidst Separation

Even though MGK and Megan Fox have now officially separated, they’re dedicated to co-parenting their upcoming child. It should be noted that Fox rarely contacts MGK after their breakup.

Fox, during her pregnancy, solely focused on the well-being of her child. The couple’s split was a result of trust issues on Megan’s side, which arose when she discovered suspicious messages on MGK’s phone.

MGK’s Focus on Self-Improvement

MGK has denied allegations of infidelity. However, he accepts the fact that his actions have caused Megan undeniable pain.

For MGK, self-improvement is an ongoing journey. He shared in an interview, “I continue to embrace that this journey is gonna be hard for me. But I accept it and forgive myself.”

Megan Fox’s Fourth Child

Megan Fox already has three sons with her ex-husband, Brian Austin Green. Fox’s eldest child, Noah Shannon Green, was born in 2012.

Bodhi Ransom Green came into this world in 2014, and Journey River Green, Megan’s third son, was born in 2016. Megan’s current pregnancy marks her first child with MGK.

MGK’s Relationship with His Daughter Casie

MGK became a father at the age of 19 when his daughter, Casie Colson Baker, was born. MGK and Casie share a close relationship, and the two are often seen attending public events together.

Just like MGK lost a dear one, Aubrey Plaza did, too. Aubrey Plaza expresses grief after the sudden loss of Jeff Baena, whose death shocked the entertainment industry.

The Impact of Trembath’s Passing on MGK

Luke’s passing, who was just like a brother to MGK, shifted the singer’s perspective on life. He acknowledged the fact that life would be less without him but found peace in the belief that “legends never die.”

In light of Liam’s love, Kate Cassidy’s Christmas Message of Love and Loss also moved everyone. Just like MKG, we all also lost dear famous people in the past year; here’s to remembering the celebrities who died in 2024.
