Megan Fox couldn’t be happier! The original Transformers movie star announced on Monday (US time) that her family with partner Machine Gun Kelly was getting bigger. The welcoming pregnancy news was undoubtedly an immensely poignant moment for Fox, who had previously suffered a heartbreaking miscarriage.
The Jennifer's Body icon wrote on Instagram on November 11, "nothing is ever really lost. welcome back (angel emoji) (red heart emoji)." The short yet definitive message came with the IG carousel post, in which she shared a photo of herself covered in dark oil as she warmly caresses her baby bump. The following snap showed her positive pregnancy test. The 38-year-old confirmed MGK, whose real name is Colson Baker, as the father by tagging him on her bump. With her latest IG update, Fox hit her social media platform on reset as she wiped off all previous posts from public viewing, attracting 100% attention to her pregnancy reveal.

While the American actress' soon-to-arrive baby is her first with the “Bloody Valentine” singer, she already co-parents three kids, Noah (11), Bodhi (9) and Journey (7) with ex-husband Brian Austin Green. Meanwhile, her current partner, the 34-year-old rapper, is a father to his 15-year-old daughter Cassie, whom he shares with former girlfriend Emma Cannon.

In the same year, Fox unforgettably also appeared as the rocker's love interest in the “Bloody Valentine” music video. Two years later, Kelly got down on his knee and proposed.

However, she didn't “have a comment on the status of the relationship per se.”
“What I can say is, that is what I refer to as being my ‘twin soul,’ and there will always be a tether to him no matter what," she said during an appearance on Alex Cooper's ‘Call Her Daddy’ podcast.
