Speculation exploded across social media recently after Megan Fox appeared to flaunt a visible baby bump in Machine Gun Kelly and Jelly Roll’s new music video “Lonely Road.” Released on July 26, the emotionally charged video features Fox portraying a pregnant woman, cradling her belly and sharing intimate on-screen moments with MGK—her real-life partner.
In one striking scene, MGK tenderly kisses Fox’s growing bump. In another, she lovingly embraces a newborn baby girl. The cinematic storytelling and authentic chemistry between the couple had fans buzzing: Is Megan Fox pregnant again?
But according to sources close to the couple, the answer is a resounding no.
A Role, Not a Reveal
Despite the lifelike portrayal, Fox’s pregnancy in “Lonely Road” is strictly fictional. A source told Us Weekly that the couple, while open to the idea of expanding their family, used the pregnancy narrative solely for artistic purposes.
“Although they have discussed having a baby, this was just for MGK’s music video,” the insider clarified.
Adding further clarity, Anna Cejka, mother of the baby who appears at the video’s conclusion, took to social media to confirm her daughter—Baby Violet Leika—was acting in the final scene. Fox’s touching portrayal of motherhood, though entirely scripted, clearly struck a chord with viewers.
The Backstory Behind the Video
“Lonely Road” reimagines John Denver’s Take Me Home, Country Roads in a gritty, heartfelt country-rap hybrid. Directed with emotional depth, the video captures themes of love, loss, and redemption. Fox’s character navigates the journey of pregnancy while her partner (played by MGK) ends up incarcerated. The closing scene, where she visits him holding their child, ties the narrative together with bittersweet resonance.
Beyond its cinematic flair, the project underscores a personal and professional milestone in MGK and Jelly Roll’s long-standing friendship.
Brotherhood Through the Struggle
In an Instagram post, Jelly Roll revealed the emotional significance behind this collaboration. He spoke of their shared origins and the hard-fought success both artists now enjoy:
“What makes this collab so beautiful is it’s two guys that came from the exact same kinda place with less than zero percent of making it out.”
He praised MGK’s evolution not just as a musician but as a father and man—an admiration that MGK reciprocated in kind.
“From us beefing 12 years ago to now putting out what I believe will be the biggest hit of our careers—I'm proud to call you my brother. This lonely road ain't so lonely, my friend,” MGK posted.
Fertility Struggles Behind the Scenes
While the pregnancy storyline in the video is fictional, it does touch on real struggles the couple has faced. In a deeply personal interview on Good Morning America in November 2023, Megan Fox opened up about her fertility journey, revealing she had undergone IVF and experienced a miscarriage.
“I had never been through anything like that before in my life,” she shared. “It was very difficult for both of us… trying to navigate, ‘What does this mean?’ and ‘Why did this happen?’”
Fox has three sons from her previous marriage to actor Brian Austin Green, and MGK (real name Colson Baker) has a teenage daughter. Their shared desire to have a child together has reportedly been a point of both hope and heartbreak.
A Love Story Still in Progress
Fox and MGK have been under the public microscope since they began dating in 2020. After a whirlwind romance, high-profile engagement, and brief split in early 2023, the couple has since worked to rebuild their bond—privately.
During a March 2025 appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, Fox described MGK as her “twin soul,” acknowledging the complexity of their relationship:
“There will always be a tether to him, no matter what. But what I’ve learned about being in this relationship is that it’s not for public consumption.”
The Final Word
Though the imagery in “Lonely Road” stirred up pregnancy rumors, the truth lies in creative expression rather than real-life revelation. Fox’s compelling performance, MGK’s emotional vulnerability, and the music’s raw authenticity remind us that sometimes, art imitates life—and sometimes, it’s just a story we needed to hear.
Bottom line: Megan Fox is not pregnant. But the message of resilience, hope, and healing behind the video? That part is very real.
