<p id=”par-1_44″>Before <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/megan-fox/”>Megan Fox</a> was in her very high profile <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/megan-foxs-inner-circle-worried-mgk-will-lead-same-painful-spot-source-says.html/”>relationship with Machine Gun Kelly</a>, she was with Brian Austin Green for a decade. Although she’d end up marrying Green at one point, Fox was determined not to. Even after already accepting his marriage proposal.</p>

<p id=”par-2_60″>According to Fox, her and Green had an instant romantic connection, although Green didn’t realize it at the time. <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/brian-austin-green-megan-fox-divorce.html/”>The pair met</a> on the ABC sitcom <em>Hope & Faith </em>in 2004, after Green had just gotten out of a deep relationship. Still reeling from his break-up, the <em>Smallville </em>actor <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/why-brian-austin-green-first-rejected-megan-fox.html/”>rejected Fox’s advances</a>. But eventually, the <em>Transformers </em>star wore him down.</p>
<p id=”par-3_35″>“It’s funny, I kept pushing her away early on, because I was like, ‘I don’t want a relationship,’” Green once told <a href=”https://open.spotify.com/episode/1WXKsAH5Ikwx8R9kszemLh”>KFC Radio</a>. “And then she was like, ‘Well cool, I’m going to go date.’”</p>
<p id=”par-4_38″><a></a>“I was like, ‘Wait a second, I didn’t say go date, please!’ So then that’s when I realized I was, like ‘F*** I must be really into this situation, [because] the thought of that kills me,’” Green added.</p>

<p id=”par-5_32″>After giving in, Geen dated Fox for several years, and eventually asked for her hand in marriage. Fox agreed, but made it clear that she had no intention of honoring their engagement.</p>
<p id=”par-6_66″>“I’m not going to be married — I’m not the marrying type,” Fox once said in an interview with <a href=”https://extratv.com/2009/04/13/megan-fox-im-not-the-marrying-type/”>Extra</a>. “And I know what your next question is going to be — you’re going to ask me, ‘Why are you engaged if you’re not the marrying type?’ I am impulsive and I love my boyfriend, but I have no plans of getting married any time soon.”</p>
<p id=”par-7_49″>Perhaps this might’ve played a part in Fox and Green ending their engagement in 2009. But according to <a href=”https://people.com/movies/megan-fox-brian-austin-green-relationship-timeline/#:~:text=May%2018%2C%202020:%20Brian%20Austin,wasn’t%20due%20to%20cheating.”>People</a>, the pair later reconciled for a second engagement in 2010. This time, they’d make it down the aisle, and officially married each other that same year in a private ceremony.</p>

<p id=”par-8_55″>Fox and Green were married for 10 years and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/megan-fox-shared-didnt-want-children-saved-enough-money.html/”>had three kids</a> together <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/brian-austin-green-confirms-megan-fox-split-breakup-divorce-seen-with-machine-gun-kelly-nobody-did-anything-wrong.html/”>before parting ways in 2020</a>. Although it might’ve come as a shock to many, Fox saw their divorce as a longtime coming in hindsight. In a very candid interview on her <em><a href=”https://open.spotify.com/episode/1WXKsAH5Ikwx8R9kszemLh”>Call Her Daddy</a> </em>podcast, Fox shared that she regretted marrying Green.</p>
<p id=”par-9_38″>“I got myself into a relationship, which I of course found—no shade to Brian, unfulfilling—because inevitably, that’s what I was going to do, because I was reenacting what I watched my mother do as a child,” Fox said.</p>
<p id=”par-10_45″>She also felt she married too young, and didn’t give herself the opportunity to experience the dating scene nearly long enough before marrying someone. This led to her developing crushes on film sets she couldn’t act on, causing a further rift between herself and Green.</p>
<p id=”par-11_54″>“I would go to work and fall in love, because I was a kid,” Fox said. “I never had the full freedom to be single and experience that life. And I thought for a minute when I got divorced that that’s what I was gonna do, and I was single for, like, three weeks.”</p>
<p id=”par-12_56″>During her brief stint as a single woman, Fox met Machine Gun Kelly on the set of<em> Midnight in the Switchgrass</em>. The two would date on and off for four years in a somewhat turbulent relationship. After Fox became pregnant with her and MGK’s child, however, the two would break up for good in December, 2024.</p>
