Megan Fox's ex Machine Gun Kelly emotionally breaks silence on pair's relationship after welcoming daughter
Machine Gun Kelly has given an emotional insight into his relationship with ex Megan Fox after welcoming their daughter together.
The 35-year-old musician, born Colson Baker, has been co-parenting daughter baby Saga Blade with his ex-fiancée after splitting over Thanksgiving - and had nothing but praise for the star during a chat on Friday's Today Show.
'Megan is a great mom,' he gushed about the actress, 39, with whom he was in an on-off relationship for four years just days after hinting at their rumored reconciliation.
'She's killing it. I'm so excited,' he said about the Transformers star's fourth baby, who is also his second but their first child together.
On the morning show, he also opened up about the sentimental meaning behind their daughter's name.
He explained that Saga's name represents him and Fox's journey of having a baby together.
They previously experienced a pregnancy loss, and the pair hinted about the devastating experience.
'Coming back again, disappearing, coming back again,' he said this week about their daughter's name. 'She is an epic story. And that's what Saga means.'
He added: 'I'm also of Norwegian heritage so that's the Nordic goddess of storytelling.'
He also revealed what he hopes their daughter's profession will be in the future.
'I think she has a storytelling future ahead of her,' he said.
MGK and Fox's whirlwind romance dates back to 2020 when they started dating on the set of the 2021 crime thriller Midnight in the Switchgrass.
In late March, they welcomed their 'little celestial seed,' Saga. Over a year of dating, at the beginning of 2022, MGK proposed to Fox.
In early 2023, however, the 'twin flames' briefly split before reconciling shortly thereafter.
He added: 'I'm also of Norwegian heritage so that's the Nordic goddess of storytelling'
He also performed on the morning show in Rockefeller Plaza, just shortly after dropping a hint this week that he seemingly rekindled his romance with Fox
Later that same year, Fox revealed that they once suffered a miscarriage and made the heartbreaking confession in her poetry book, Pretty Boys Are Poisonous.
In February 2024, the singer also seemingly mentioned their loss in his song, 'dont let me go,' in which he sang: 'How can I live with the fact / That my hand wasn't on her stomach when we lost the baby.'
In November 2024, Fox announced she was pregnant and expecting a rainbow baby' but they called it quits just a month later.
Previously, the actress was married to actor Brian Austin Green for a decade.
The exes, who were together for 16 years, are also parents to three sons: Noah, 12, Bodhi, 10, and Journey, eight.
MGK is also a father to his 15-year-old daughter Casie Colson Baker, whom he shares with his ex-girlfriend Emma Cannon.

How Brad Pitt's favourite watch got its own starring role in F1
Brad Pitt may be best known for appearing in some of cinema's biggest blockbusters, but as a figure in the public eye for nearly four decades, he's also no stranger to scrutiny when it comes to his style choices. Alongside the clothes on his back, his hoard of statement watches has been well documented. And with the release of this season's high-octane motor-racing movie F1, Pitt's interest in horology is set to be centre stage again. The film, which is co-produced by Lewis Hamilton, stars Pitt as Sonny Hayes, who returns to the track to reclaim his lost glory following a spell in rehabilitation. But long before the movie's premiere this month — for which IWC is the sponsor of the fictional racing team and supplied all the timepieces — watch aficionados were caught up in a speculative frenzy when images of Pitt found their way into media channels. What had them bamboozled was a mystery green-dialled watch that was perfectly colour-coordinated with Pitt's elegant Sunspel sweatshirt and leather holdall. Theories swirled as to whether this was a 'prop' watch or something with more substance. It turned out to be the latter. 'Some time ago I got an email from somebody called 'BP' and I discarded it at first, until my team asked me if I had got an email from Brad Pitt,' says Chris Grainger-Herr, the CEO of IWC, recalling his astonishment when the actor got in touch. Pitt's message concerned the watch he thought his character should wear in the film, and a particular IWC model would be the only one up to muster. He requested an IWC Ingenieur SL 1832, a vintage 1976 model by Gérald Genta — often considered the godfather of modern watch design — who was also responsible for the cult Patek Philippe Nautilus and Audemars Piguet Royal Oak. 'He was very specific — he wanted it half as thick as the original and a special dial colour,' Grainger-Herr adds. Pitt also requested that the modifications involve his jeweller, Cloister Watch Co in New York, which is famed for its customisation work. The dial Pitt chose, a moss green that is his character's signature colour in the film, never existed in the original Seventies iteration — and was what had watch fanatics scratching their heads. Ingenieur Automatic 40, IW328908, £11,100, Christian Knoop, IWC's creative director, and his team were so taken with this one-off 'fictional' watch designed by the actor that they decided to launch their own tribute to his timepiece. The result is a contemporary spin on Pitt's remodelled vintage design, which still retains the Seventies swagger of the film version with a slick, integrated bracelet and angular case, but has all the bells and whistles you'd expect from a modern watch, including a high-spec self-powered movement that will keep ticking for 120 hours off the wrist. And that green dial has been given a textural upgrade with a grid-like finish. 'With this re-engineered model, we brought back the aesthetic codes of the original 1976 Ingenieur SL 1832, pairing them with the ergonomics and finishing of a luxury sports watch for today,' Knoop explains. And with only 1,000 being produced, you'll need to move like an F1 champ to get your hands on one before the chequered flag is waved.

Stressed Bill Belichick seen drenched in sweat with Jordon Hudson after rushing through airport to catch flight
Bill Belichick got so hot and flustered during a race to make a flight to Las Vegas on Wednesday that he was sweating through his clothes. Pictures obtained by Daily Mail show the six-time Super Bowl winner and 24-year-old girlfriend Jordon Hudson stood at their gate after sprinting through the terminal at Charlotte Douglas International airport. The couple were hoping to make a plane from North Carolina to Las Vegas but their efforts had left Belichick, 73, drenched in sweat. The pictures show the UNC coach and his younger girlfriend talking to a member of airline staff with a huge sweat patch all the way down his back. Unfortunately, he had chosen to wear a light grey hoodie which meant his perspiration could be clearly seen from distance. Belichick was obviously tense as he was seen arriving at the gate at 6:58am, just 16 minutes before his flight to Las Vegas was due to depart. Witnesses also claim that Belichick hadn't even had time to put on his socks, such was the rush he found himself in. Fortunately for the couple, they were allowed to board their flight. They even packed some extremely sparkly luggage as Hudson posted a picture of them wearing their respective championship rings. Tagging their location as Las Vegas, one of Belichick's Super Bowl rings and Hudson's cheerleading equivalent were both front and center of the picture. The purpose of their trip was to attend the grand opening of Tom Brady's Hall of Excellence museum at the Fontainebleau in Sin City. Two days later, Hudson posted a picture of her soaking up the sun in a bikini in California. She was lying on a sunbed with a cocktail in hand and plenty of delicious food next to her. Earlier this week she took a sly jab at Belichick 's ex partner, Linda Holliday, in a sentimental Instagram post, where she name-dropped 'Nantucket Socialites'. Hudson's post was primarily about Melissa Sapini, last year's Miss Massachusetts who relinquished her title this week to the new winner, with Hudson paying tribute to her friend's time on top on Tuesday. The long, sappy post included a jab at Holliday near the bottom, after Hudson gave Sapini tons of shout-outs. 'I know you will keep shining, metamorphosing and taking up space; even when others threaten you and insist that you don't belong, e.g. the "Nantucket Socialites"' Hudson said. Hudon's jab is in reference to an incident where Holliday did not like Hudson and Sapini coming to a certain Nantucket Christmas party late last year. Belichick, 73, and Holliday, 61, broke up in September 2023 after 16 years together. He met Hudson on a flight from Boston to Florida in 2021.
