Machine Gun Kelly—aka Colson Baker when he’s feeling fancy—has finally shared his thoughts about the big news: his partner, Megan Fox, is pregnant! That’s right, the guy who’s made a career out of shredding guitars and occasionally our eardrums is gearing up to tackle diaper duty once again. Somebody cue the lullaby remix of My Bloody Valentine.
For those keeping track of celebrity offspring like it’s a fantasy league, MGK is already dad to a 15-year-old daughter, Casie, from a previous relationship with Emma Cannon. Megan, on the other hand, has three kiddos with her ex-husband, Brian Austin Green. So basically, these two are building a family squad big enough for a reality show or at least a very chaotic carpool line.
The news comes with a bittersweet backdrop, as it’s been about a year since Megan shared the heartbreaking story of a miscarriage at 10 weeks. Now, however, the couple seems ready to embark on this new chapter—complete with MGK’s signature poetic flair.
Taking to Twitter, our resident rockstar-turned-poet-laureate dropped some life updates that somehow connected impending fatherhood with a desert trip and an album reboot. He tweeted:
“isolating myself in the desert next week to restart this album from scratch. when inspiration flows through me unblocked, we will reach the destination in no time. don’t worry. after all, im about to be a dad again!”
Translation? “I’m going to the desert to find my muse, revamp my album, and maybe pick up some cool baby names while I’m there. How does Saguaro sound?”
Fans are, of course, thrilled—not just for the baby news but also because it’s clear MGK is committed to staying unpredictable. One minute he’s headlining festivals; the next, he’s hinting at a dadcore version of himself wandering the desert in search of creative enlightenment.
As we wait for more baby updates (and hopefully a new MGK album that’s not just Baby Shark covers), one thing’s clear: this family is about to be louder, quirkier, and even more headline-worthy than ever. Stay tuned—things are about to get wild.
