Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly are expecting their first child

Megan Fox has announced that she and US rapper Machine Gun Kelly are expecting their first child together.

The “Transformers” actress tagged the musician in a photo of her kneeling, covered in a black substance, holding her baby bump.

Fox, who revealed last year that a previous pregnancy had ended in miscarriage, also posted an image of a positive pregnancy test alongside the portrait.

The actress, who has been dating Kelly since 2020, captioned the pictures: “Nothing is ever truly lost. Welcome back.”

Fox previously spoke about her miscarriage on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”

She said: “I have never experienced anything like this in my life. It was very difficult for both of us.”

“It sent us on a very wild journey together and separately – trying to figure out what does this mean and why did this happen?”

She also shared her experiences in two poems in her book “Pretty Boys are Poisonous.”

In an interview with Women’s Wear Daily, Fox also revealed that she had experienced an ectopic pregnancy on another occasion.

A fertilized egg implants itself outside the uterus, usually in one of the fallopian tubes.

The American actress has three children and Machine Gun Kelly has a daughter from a previous relationship.
