Megan Fox turned a sultry Instagram photoshoot into a possible message about what she wants from her relationships. The 40-year-old actress posed in a barely-there black ensemble beside a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon, but it was her short caption about “intellectual compatibility” that sparked speculation that she was addressing her romantic past. Fox did not identify Machine Gun Kelly, Brian Austin Green, or any other former partner in the post, leaving the meaning behind her message open to interpretation.
Fox shared two nighttime photographs with her 24 million Instagram followers on Thursday. The “Transformers” star wore a tiny PVC bandeau top with a black thong and leather chaps. She completed the daring look with fuzzy over-the-knee boots and a bright green coat draped off her shoulders.
Rather than discussing the outfit, Fox captioned the post, “intellectual compatibility >>.” Her post received more than one million likes, while comments ranged from praise for the actress’ appearance to criticism of the revealing outfit.
The wording quickly inspired theories that the actress was subtly outlining what she felt had been missing from her previous relationships. However, Fox did not explicitly connect the statement to either of her famous exes.
Actress Previously Asked If A Troll Was One Of Her Exes
The cryptic caption arrived nearly a month after Fox directly brought her former partners into another heated Instagram exchange. In July, the actress shared a collection of photographs showing her posing in sheer black lingerie and a dramatically long veil.
While many fans praised the images, one user attacked Fox for sharing the revealing photos as a mother in her 40s. “This sh-t is so unbelievably embarrassing for a 40-year-old mom to be posting. 16-year-old Tumblr sh-t,” the Instagram user commented.
Fox responded by asking, “Which one of my exes is this?”
Megan Fox And Machine Gun Kelly Share A Daughter
Fox was most recently involved with Machine Gun Kelly, whose real name is Colson Baker. The two began dating in 2020 after meeting while working on the film “Midnight in the Switchgrass.” They became engaged in January 2022, although Fox later confirmed in 2024 that their engagement had ended. Their relationship reportedly came to an end in late 2024, shortly after Fox announced that they were expecting their first child together.
Fox gave birth to their daughter, Saga Blade Fox-Baker, in March 2025. The former couple has since been seen together, although neither has publicly confirmed that they have resumed their romantic relationship. Reports that Fox later blocked MGK following one of their reunions have not been publicly confirmed by either star.
Machine Gun Kelly Appears To Address Megan Fox Split On New Album
Machine Gun Kelly also appears to be reflecting on the end of his relationship with Fox through his new album, “Lost Americana.” On the track “Treading Water,” the musician seemingly accepts responsibility for a fractured relationship, singing, “I broke this home.”
The vulnerable song also includes references to packing suitcases around the holidays, potentially connecting it to reports that he and Fox separated shortly before Thanksgiving. “I’m lookin’ at the kids’ faces / Sittin’ in the driveway while I pack up suitcases / I just ruined their holiday, and lies don’t die, they grow,” he sings.
MGK then appears to reference the former couple’s daughter, Saga Blade, as he promises to change for her. “I broke this home, but I’ll change for our daughter, so she’s not alone,” he sings.
Brian Austin Green Recently Reflected On Their Marriage
Before her relationship with MGK, Fox was married to “Beverly Hills, 90210” actor Brian Austin Green. Fox met Green when she was 18, and he was 30. They married in 2010 and welcomed three sons: Noah, Bodhi and Journey.
Green recently revisited the beginning of their relationship and reportedly admitted that he “led with physical attraction” in their marriage. “Until Sharna [Burgess], my ex and I were together for almost 15 years,” Green shared. “We were married for almost 10 years and I led with physical attraction.”
The former couple separated after nearly a decade of marriage, and court documents reviewed by PEOPLE showed that their divorce was finalized in February 2022. They have moved forward as co-parents to their three sons.
