Actor Megan Fox revealed that she is pregnant in an Instagram photo that is simply dripping with intrigue.
In the image, Fox, 38, is cradling her belly while kneeling in what looks like a puddle of black paint oozing from her skin. She stares into the camera wearing an expression that may be proud, or defiant, or both.
And just in case there is any doubt about the message of the photo, Fox included a second image gripping a pregnancy test that reads “YES+.”
The post went live Monday and had more than 800,000 likes within an hour.
Fox shares three children — Noah, Bodhi and Journey, — with ex-husband Brian Austin Green. The pair filed for divorce in 2020, the same year that Fox began her passionate partnership with Machine Gun Kelly.
Though she didn’t specifically reveal the father of her newest addition, Fox tagged Kelly in her Instagram post.
She cryptically captioned the carousel, “Nothing is ever really lost. welcome back.” Fox may be referring to a previous experience with pregnancy loss when she was 10 weeks along.
Fox wrote two personal poems about the loss in her 2023 book titled “Pretty Boys Are Poisonous.”
In the book, she wrote, “Heartbeat in my womb” adding, “I want to hold your hand/hear your laugh.”
She continued at another point, “But now I have to say goodbye/I close my eyes and imagine holding you tight against my chest/as they rip you from my insides.”
It remains to be seen whether Fox will publicly discuss the baby’s father.
On the March 20, 2024, episode of Alex Cooper’s “Call Her Daddy” podcast, the host asked Fox to address her relationship with Kelly.
“I think what I’ve learned from being in this relationship is that it’s not for public consumption,” Fox replied.
