Machine Gun Kelly can take a joke.
Two weeks after welcoming a baby girl with ex-girlfriend Megan Fox, the rapper shared a post from the satirical website The Onion via his Instagram Story that depicted him as the child in the relationship.
“Megan Fox Confirms She and New Baby Will Co-parent Machine Gun Kelly,” the headline read.
Kelly, 34, added three laughing emojis on top of the post.
Megan Fox has some big plans for her life after she welcomes her first child with ex Machine Gun Kelly. “She has a renewed sense of confidence since being apart from MGK and after the baby she will be focusing on a career comeback,” a source close to the actress exclusively told Us Weekly. “The […]
Kelly proposed to Fox, 38, in 2022, but revealed their split shortly before the Transformers star announced her pregnancy last November. A source told Us Weekly at the time that the pair was “doing their best to cope in their own ways after calling it quits.”
Fox is also the mother of Noah, 12, Bodhi, 10, and Journey, 8, whom she shares with ex-husband Brian Austin Green. Kelly also parents 15-year-old daughter Casie with ex Emma Cannon.
In the leadup to their daughter’s arrival, Kelly made headlines for his ongoing feud with Green, 51. Tensions reached a boiling point the day the baby was born, when Green posted scathing direct messages that appeared to be from Kelly.
“Stop asking when our child is gonna born. You the FEDS,” one message read. “Quit calling TMZ and focus on that apology you owe me for speaking on my name in public.”
The message continued, “You chose the wrong one to f*** with mr child actor. Go back to cereal commercials.”

Later that day, Kelly took to Instagram to announce the baby’s arrival.
“She’s finally here!! our little celestial seed 
,” he wrote under a short video featuring the newborn’s hands appearing to grasp Fox’s. “3/27/25.”
In the time since, a source tells Us that “the baby has brought [Fox and Kelly] closer together,” though they have no plans to rekindle their romantic relationship anytime soon.
“The baby is already wrapped around his finger,” the insider continued. “Megan has noticed his energy is different, the look in his eyes is different, his aura has changed. She feels the baby is exactly what he needed, and she is hoping it sticks.”
The source characterized their relationship as “still complicated,” adding that it’s “a mix of healing and hard conversations that they have had.” Fox remains worried that Kelly will “change” again and become “the guy she doesn’t know.”
Fox, for her part, seems to be reveling in her post-pregnancy life.
“Megan has really leaned into motherhood again,” a source said. “She loved when her kids were little and has missed that phase. She feels renewed and refreshed.”
