Earlier this week, it was confirmed that the actress and rapper have reportedly split despite Fox being pregnant with the couple's first baby, her fourth child overall.

The 38-year-old, who is believed to be approximately four to five months pregnant, shared the joyous news of her pregnancy on November 11.

Taking to Instagram, the Jennifer's Body star shared a stunning photo from a photo shoot, showing her posing nude with black paint on her body while proudly cradling her growing bump.

She captioned the post: "Nothing is ever really lost. Welcome back."

However, things allegedly took a turn for the worse just two weeks later after multiple news outlets confirmed that the pair had decided to split.

The decision to go their separate ways reportedly occurred over the Thanksgiving period after Fox discovered "upsetting" material on Kelly's phone during their trip to Vail, Colorado. She subsequently left the trip early and reports say they've not seen each other since.

A source close to Fox told PEOPLE that the actress was "blindsided" by the sudden turn of events, adding: "She's been distraught."

They also stated that the star is "trying to focus on" preparing for the baby on the way.

"It's her priority," they added.

In the wake of the sudden news, a viral video of Fox and her co-star from her latest movie, Subservience, has been circulating online, with many speculating whether or not Michele Morrone was the reason behind the couple's split.

In a clip from the joint interview posted to X earlier this month, the Transformers star was seen resting her arm on Morrone's shoulder while she corrected him on the pronunciation of "SpongeBob."

In response, he smiled back at Fox before purposefully getting her instruction wrong again.  


After seeing the clip, many fans were blown away by the chemistry between the two.

However, Morrone wants no part of the drama and has set the record straight.

"Any accusations beyond a work friendship are simply untrue," a rep for the 365 Days told E! News on December 10. "They filmed a movie together a year ago. Michele is currently in Italy filming another project."

Neither Fox nor MGK have spoken out about their breakup as of yet.
