When Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly got engaged in 2022, the moment captured the public's attention. The couple, known for their intense and unconventional romance, shared their milestone on social media. However, the unique piece of jewelry that marked the occasion carried a literal sting.
The rockstar rapper commissioned a custom piece that was beautiful but came with a sharp twist. He designed the ring specifically to cause physical pain if Fox ever tried to remove it from her finger.
The gesture reflected the intense, sometimes painful nature of their bond. While it was celebrated as a milestone for the actress, the custom design meant that any attempt to remove the piece would come with a physical cost.
The couple originally met in 2020 on the set of the serial killer film Midnight in the Switchgrass. Fox later described an instant connection with the musician during an interview with GQ Style.
"It was obvious from second one what it was going to be," she explained. "I did not anticipate walking right into my soulmate like that. I was obviously over the way I had been living, and those paths lined up, those doors opened. It was [as if] all the obstacles that had kept us apart all those years [had been removed] and we were able to finally intersect."
Two years after that initial meeting, MGK proposed with a diamond and emerald ring designed by Stephen Webster. He later explained the mechanics and philosophy behind the piece to Vogue, revealing that the bands were made of thorns.
"The concept is that the ring can come apart to make two rings. When it’s together, it’s held in place by a magnet," he told the publication. "So you see how it snaps together? And then it forms an obscure heart. And you see this right here? The bands are actually thorns. So if she tries to take it off, it hurts…" He added, "Love is pain!"
The design was put to the test when Fox eventually confirmed that their wedding plans were off. Speaking on the Call Her Daddy podcast, the actress shared that they had ended their engagement.
"I think that what I’ve learned from being in this relationship is that it’s not for public consumption," she explained. "I think, as of now, I don’t have a comment on the status of the relationship, per se. What I can say is [he] is what I refer to as being my ‘twin soul’ and there will always be a tether to him, no matter what. I can’t say for sure what the capacity will be, but I will always be connected to him somehow. Beyond that, I’m not willing to explain."
Despite the end of their engagement and a period of intense relationship rumors, the pair surprised fans late in 2024 by announcing they were expecting a child together. Fox shared the news on Instagram with the caption, "Nothing is ever really lost. Welcome back."
However, a report from People indicated that the couple split up shortly after the announcement. The couple welcomed their daughter, Saga Blade, on March 27, 2025
Sharing the news on social media alongside a video of the infant's hand, he wrote, "She’s finally here!! Our little celestial seed."

Machine Gun Kelly didn't want to pop the all-important question to his "twin flame" Megan Fox with just any old ring.
Instead, the rocker, 31, helped design a two-stone ring with their one-of-a-kind love in mind.
On Wednesday, the musician proposed to Fox after over a year of dating.
Take a look at the stunning emerald diamond ring right here:
Alongside his engagement announcement, MGK shared an up-close video of the stunning emerald and diamond engagement ring he had custom-made by Stephen Webster for the occasion.
The musician shared a video of the diamond and emerald ring to his own Instagram account, writing: "Yes, in this life and every life.
"Beneath the same branches we fell in love under, U brought her back to ask her to marry me."
He added: "I know tradition is one ring, but I designed it with Stephen Webster to be two: the emerald (her birth stone) and the diamond (my birth stone) set on two magnetic bands of thorns that draw together as two halves of the same soul forming the obscure heart that is our love. 1-11-2022."
Also on Wednesday, Fox shared a video to Instagram of the rapper, whose real name is Colson Baker, getting down on one knee and popping the all-important question.
The location of the romantic proposal was under a banyan tree - the same one they met under back in 2020.
Watch the romantic proposal right here:
"In July of 2020 we sat under this banyan tree. We asked for magic," Fox captioned the intimate video.
"We were oblivious to the pain we would face together in such a short, frenetic period of time. Unaware of the work and sacrifices the relationship would require from us but intoxicated off of the love. And the karma."
She went on: "Somehow a year and a half later, having walked through hell together, and having laughed more than I ever imagined possible, he asked me to marry him.
"And just as in every lifetime before this one, and as in every lifetime that will follow it, I said yes. …and then we drank each other’s blood. 1.11.22."

Megan Fox's engagement ring from Machine Gun Kelly not only features two stones but also thorns so that it hurts to take off.
The actress last week shared a video to Instagram of the rapper, whose real name is Colson Baker, getting down on one knee and popping the all-important question.
And to seal the deal, the rocker, 31, helped design a two-stone ring with their one-of-a-kind love in mind.
Take a look at the stunning emerald diamond ring right here:
In a new interview with Vogue, the rapper said that he had a very specific vision in mind while designing his fiancé's ring.
MGK worked with British jewelry designer Stephen Webster to create the engagement ring, which is made from two magnetic bands that interlock.
The rings feature two pear-cut stones, a diamond, and an emerald, that form the shape of a heart when worn together.
"The concept is that the ring can come apart to make two rings," the rapper explained. "When it’s together, it’s held in place by a magnet. So you see how it snaps together? And then it forms an obscure heart.
"The bands are actually thorns. So if she tries to take it off, it hurts. Love is pain."
Alongside his engagement announcement, MGK shared an up-close video of the stunning emerald and diamond engagement ring.

It comes after Fox revealed that she and her new fiancé "drank each other's blood" to celebrate their engagement.

It looks like Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly's engagement may have hit a brick wall.
In a recent interview with Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy, the 37-year-old Jennifer’s Body star left no stone unturned when she shared many candid revelations about her life - from her plastic surgery confessions to her relationship with rapper MGK.
Speaking on Wednesday's edition of the show, Fox addressed the ups and downs of her relationship with the 33-year-old hit maker.
"I feel like everyone has such an opinion on your guys' relationship," Cooper said to the actress. "You got engaged, then I think it was called off, then we don’t know what’s going on with you. How would you describe your relationship with MGK?"
Although Fox confirmed that "all those things" were indeed "accurate" - she didn't go into any more details about her current relationship status with MGK (real name Colson Baker). However, she did add: "What I’ve learned from being in this relationship is that it’s not for public consumption.
"So I think as of now, I don’t have a comment on the status of the relationship per se."
The news will come as a heartbreaking confirmation for Fox's fans - as her relationship with MGK was often praised by her loyal supporters on social media.
The couple announced their engagement back in Janaury 2022, when Fox shared a video of MGK getting down on one knee underneath a banyan tree - the same one they met under back in 2020. But the ring he chose to propose with was certainly unique... to say the least.
In an interview with Vogue, the rapper revealed that he had a very specific vision in mind when helping to design Fox's two-stone ring.
MGK worked with British jewelry designer Stephen Webster to create the jewelry piece, which is made from two magnetic bands that interlock.
The rings feature two pear-cut stones, a diamond, and an emerald, that form the shape of a heart when worn together.
"The concept is that the ring can come apart to make two rings," MGK explained. "When it’s together, it’s held in place by a magnet. So you see how it snaps together? And then it forms an obscure heart.
"The bands are actually thorns. So if she tries to take it off, it hurts. Love is pain."
He added: "I know tradition is one ring, but I designed it with Stephen Webster to be two: the emerald (her birth stone) and the diamond (my birth stone) set on two magnetic bands of thorns that draw together as two halves of the same soul forming the obscure heart that is our love. 1-11-2022."
I guess fans will just have to wait and see if these two can find their way on the path back to the alter.

Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly are engaged!
The 35-year-old actress shared a video to Instagram of the rapper, whose real name is Colson Baker, getting down on one knee and popping the all-important question.
The location of the romantic proposal was under a banyan tree - the same one they met under back in 2020.

"We were oblivious to the pain we would face together in such a short, frenetic period of time. Unaware of the work and sacrifices the relationship would require from us but intoxicated off of the love. And the karma."

Fox was first linked to the rocker in May 2020 after they met on the set of the movie Midnight in the Switchgrass, with Fox's ex-husband Brian Austin Green, 48, announcing they had split later that month.
The couple share three sons together, Noah, 9, Bodhi, 7, and Journey, 5. Meanwhile, MGK is a proud dad to 13-year-old daughter Casie whom he shares with his former girlfriend.
MGK previously opened up about his first kiss with Fox.
They got emotional first, Kelly said: "She was just like, 'How are you feeling?' And I said, 'I'm lost.' She said, 'Well, let’s find you.' That was the first real conversation we had."
Initial text conversations became hours-long phone calls, and it's safe to say the pair couldn't go a day without talking to each other.
Recalling their unconventional first kiss, MGK recalled: "Even our first kiss, she wouldn't kiss me.
"We just put our lips right in front of each other and breathed each other's breath and then she just left."
Their first real date was romantic, with Kelly driving Fox in a 1974 Cadillac convertible to a picnic at a canyon’s edge, where a blanket and roses were set up. The night ended with them driving to the Roxy Theatre, which was closed.
"We went to the roof and played pop-punk and made out," he said.
