Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox welcomed their first child together, a baby girl, on March 27, 2025, and the rapper is keeping things light despite their split. The couple, who ended their engagement in November 2024, has been navigating their new roles as co-parents. On April 8, 2025, Kelly responded to a humorous headline from The Onion that playfully suggested a unique co-parenting arrangement with his ex and their newborn. This news article brings you every detail about the event, his reaction, and the latest updates on their family journey.
The satirical website The Onion published an article titled, “Megan Fox Confirms She and New Baby Will Co-Parent Machine Gun Kelly.” The headline poked fun at the idea that Megan Fox, 38, and their newborn daughter would team up to look after Machine Gun Kelly, whose real name is Colson Baker, 34. Kelly found the joke amusing and shared it on his Instagram Stories, adding three laughing emojis to show he wasn’t bothered by the playful jab.
The article came just weeks after the birth of their daughter, which Kelly announced on Instagram with a touching black-and-white video. In the clip, he held his baby girl’s tiny hand, gently stroking her fingers. He captioned it, “She’s finally here!! our little celestial seed 🥹💓♈️♓️♊️,” noting her birth date as March 27, 2025. The post melted hearts online, giving fans a sweet glimpse into his joy as a new dad.
A Musical Welcome for His Daughter
Kelly didn’t stop at the announcement. On the same day, he reshared the video on his Instagram Stories, revealing a special detail about the birth. The “Emo Girl” singer, known for his deep love of music, composed an original score for his daughter’s arrival. “We composed the score of the birth. Born into 432 HZ,” he wrote, adding, “What an epic journey praise god 🎹🥁🎵🎸🎺.” He also gave a shoutout to his collaborators, including his close friend Travis Barker, the drummer from Blink-182, who helped create the unique musical piece.
The mention of “432 HZ” refers to a tuning frequency some artists believe brings a calming, natural vibe to music. This creative touch shows how Kelly blended his artistry with fatherhood, making the moment even more personal.
A Growing Family and a Past Romance
This baby girl is Kelly’s second child. He already has a 15-year-old daughter, Casie Colson, from his earlier relationship with Emma Cannon. For Megan Fox, this is her fourth child. She shares three sons—Noah Shannon, 12, Bodhi Ransom, 11, and Journey River, 8—with her ex-husband Brian Austin Green. Fox and Kelly’s relationship began in 2020 after meeting on the set of Midnight in the Switchgrass. They got engaged in January 2022, but their romance hit rough patches, leading to a breakup in November 2024, shortly after Fox announced her pregnancy.
Despite their split, the former couple seems focused on keeping things peaceful for their daughter. Sources say they’re working together as co-parents, putting her needs first, even though they haven’t reconciled romantically.
The Onion Strikes Again
The Onion’s satirical headline wasn’t just a random jab—it played off the public’s curiosity about Fox and Kelly’s dynamic post-breakup. Known for its sharp humor, the site imagined a world where Fox and her newborn take charge of Kelly, flipping the usual parenting roles. Kelly’s laughing emojis suggest he took it in stride, showing he’s not sweating the small stuff as he settles into fatherhood.
Fans had a good chuckle too. Some had already been confused about the baby’s name after Kelly called her “our little celestial seed” in his announcement. A few days later, on March 31, he clarified on Instagram Stories, “Wait guys… her name isn’t ‘Celestial Seed’ 🤣,” clearing up that it was just a loving nickname, not her actual name, which the couple hasn’t shared yet.
Life After the Spotlight
Kelly and Fox have had their ups and downs in the public eye. Their relationship, once full of passion—like their dramatic engagement where they famously drank each other’s blood—faded after years of on-and-off moments. Fox confirmed their split in late 2024, just before their baby news broke. Since then, both have kept a low profile, focusing on their kids and personal lives.
For Kelly, this new chapter comes with a mix of joy and responsibility. His lighthearted response to The Onion shows he’s keeping a sense of humor, even as he adjusts to co-parenting with Fox. Meanwhile, Fox has been bonding with her baby girl, reportedly feeling refreshed and happy to be a mom again.
