Megan Fox is reportedly entirely unbothered by her former fiancé Machine Gun Kelly’s emerging romance with actress Dakota Johnson, choosing to focus instead on parenting their young daughter and building her own financial independence following their late 2024 separation.
Megan Fox Cuts Ties and Focuses on Motherhood
Fox, 40, has reportedly determined that she has no interest in interfering with the musician’s love life, viewing their previous relationship as a closed chapter.
Insiders revealed that Fox has completely severed communication with the musician unless it directly involves their child. While their relationship ended in late 2024 before the March 2025 birth of their daughter, sources told Page Six that Fox is not only indifferent to the new pairing but actually feels a sense of relief. She reportedly hopes the musician finds happiness with someone else, as she wants to ensure their co-parenting arrangement remains free from unnecessary romantic complications.

Rather than revisiting past dynamics, Fox is currently single and prioritizing hands-on motherhood alongside new business ventures. She has been focused on building her financial independence, recently launching an exclusive content page on Subs.com to provide fans with a personal glimpse into her life. She has also appeared in a high-profile advertising campaign for the telehealth platform Ro, further expanding her professional projects as she settles into this new phase of life.
Dakota Johnson and Machine Gun Kelly Fuel Romance Rumors in Los Angeles
Meanwhile, the connection between Machine Gun Kelly, 36, and Dakota Johnson, 37, continues to draw public attention through a series of high-profile outings. The pair first sparked speculation after hitting it off at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s star-studded July 4 wedding, where sources reported Johnson allegedly made the first move. They were later spotted together in New York City in September, where they reportedly visited Taylor Swift’s Tribeca apartment to find privacy while getting to know one another.
The budding romance saw further development in mid-October. On Wednesday, October 14, the duo was filmed visiting “Say Yes,” a cocktail lounge and speakeasy in Hollywood. Despite the public nature of these sightings, neither star has officially confirmed the status of their relationship.
Family Approvals and Prior Relationships Shape the New Romance
Friends close to the new couple indicate that the relationship has grown rapidly since they transitioned from friends to romantic partners. Reports suggest that Johnson has been telling friends that their sexual connection is incredibly strong and that they share similar goals regarding family, despite looking like an unlikely couple at first glance.
Both stars arrived at their current connection following long-term relationships that concluded recently. Johnson’s eight-year relationship with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin ended in 2025, followed by a brief romance with singer Role Model earlier this year. As their romance develops, Johnson has joked about her history of dating musicians, while Fox continues to prioritize her own professional commitments and her children.
