Fox and MGK 'drank each other's blood' after becoming engaged in Puerto Rico
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly have been one of Hollywood's hottest power couples, not afraid to show public displays of affection and reveal the most personal details of their relationship. The pair met while filming on the set of "Midnight in the Switchgrass" while Fox was still married to actor Brian Austin Green.
Fox filed for divorce from Green in November 2020 – but said they had ended their relationship in 2019 – after being married for over a decade. Shortly after Fox appeared in MGK's music video "Bloody Valentine," the stars went public with their relationship in June 2020, although it was reported they had begun seeing each other not long after meeting on the film set.
On January 11, 2022, after almost two years of dating, MGK proposed to Fox in Puerto Rico, capturing the moment with his phone set against a cup. They "drank each other's blood" after the proposal.

In September 2018, Kelly released the diss track "Rap Devil," calling out Eminem over their personal and professional disagreements. The song has accumulated over 350,000,000 views and led to Eminem responding with his song called "Killshot."
Why are MGK and Fox not married yet?
Fox and Kelly have not officially tied the knot, but that hasn't stopped the rapper from referring to her as his wife. During the red carpet premiere of his new Hulu documentary, "Machine Gun Kelly's Life in Pink," MGK told the press he calls Fox his wife out of respect.

Fox agreed and said they haven't married due to complications with their schedule and plan to do so when the time is right, adding, "He's on tour this year, when it needs to happen, the universe will open up and give us the space to do that."
