Actor Megan Fox is reportedly relieved by the developing romance between her former partner MGK and actor Dakota Johnson, according to reports detailing the shifting dynamics among the public figures. Sources indicate that while MGK continued seeking Fox’s attention after their split, including through public social media comments, Fox has remained focused on her professional projects and her children.
The relationship between Fox and MGK spans several years, beginning in 2020 after the two collaborated on the film Midnight in the Switchgrass. Fox also appeared in the music video for his track “Bloody Valentine” that same year. MGK proposed to Fox on January 11, 2022, with the couple announcing their engagement the following day. However, that engagement was eventually called off, with Fox confirming the status change during a March 2024 appearance on the podcast Call Her Daddy, where she noted she would no longer discuss the relationship details publicly. The couple ultimately separated in late 2024 following Fox’s pregnancy announcement in November of that year. They share a daughter, Saga Blade, who was born on March 27, 2025, a date MGK referenced in his birth announcement.
Following their separation, contact between Fox and MGK has been primarily limited to co-parenting matters concerning their daughter, though MGK made efforts to reconnect. In March 2026, when Fox returned to Instagram following a social media hiatus with a post captioned “Everything is more beautiful because we are doomed,” MGK left a public comment stating he was stoked to have her phone number, though Fox did not reply. Despite these interactions, sources close to Fox report that she harbors no ill will toward Johnson and hopes both find happiness, while maintaining boundaries regarding romantic expectations.
Meanwhile, MGK, whose legal name is Colson Baker, and Dakota Johnson have been increasingly linked in recent months. The 36-year-old musician and 37-year-old actor were spotted visiting Taylor Swift’s Tribeca property in September before dining at Estela in New York. On October 15, the pair were photographed leaving a Los Angeles recording studio together, and subsequent images showed MGK’s vehicle parked outside Johnson’s residence the following morning. Sources close to the musician reported that the two have also shared unphotographed dates, bonding over a shared sense of humor while keeping their status casual and unhurried.
Johnson’s own relationship history includes a split from Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, which was reported in June 2025. She was subsequently linked to musician Role Model, though reports confirmed that relationship ended earlier in 2026. Fox, meanwhile, has concentrated on family and career developments. On October 9, Subs.com announced that Fox had acquired a co-ownership stake in the subscription platform and launched an official page for exclusive subscriber content. Fox noted an interest in the intersection of women-led platforms, audiences, and image ownership. Additionally, Fox has maintained her commercial work, including advertising campaigns for the telehealth company Ro.
