Machine Gun Kelly is going through a tough time as he mourns the loss of his best friend while preparing for the birth of his second child,without his ex-fiancée, Megan Fox, by his side.
The 34-year-old rapper, whose real name is Colson Baker, is grieving the sudden death of his close friend, Australian snowboarder Luke ‘The Dingo’ Trembath, who passed away at the age of 38. In an emotional Instagram post, MGK admitted that Dingo’s passing has affected him even more than the loss of his own father. He wrote, “Crazy… I didn’t even cry this hard when my dad died. I’ve lost a lot of friends, but I’ve never lost a brother.”
He described Dingo as a “true rockstar” and said he will always miss his energy, loyalty, and even his annoying habits. He added, “Life will always be less without you, but legends never die.”
Amidst his grief, MGK is also facing the bittersweet reality that his second child is on the way, but Dingo will never get to meet them. He shared, “I feel like you’re up there with my new child, dressed up in a hilarious costume, making them laugh, getting ready to send them down. I couldn’t ask for a more bittersweet birth blessing.”
At the same time, MGK is also dealing with heartbreak from his split with Megan Fox. The 38-year-old actress is pregnant with his child but has no interest in rekindling their relationship. According to sources, Fox is done with MGK’s drama and is focused on moving forward independently. An insider revealed, “Megan is deeply hurt by how things ended, but she is focusing on healing.”
Although MGK reportedly hopes for a second chance, Fox is firm in her decision to move on. Insiders told Us Weekly, “He would like to reconcile, but Megan doesn’t see a future with him anymore.”
The couple, who started dating in 2020, broke up in November—just weeks after news of Fox’s pregnancy was revealed. Their split followed months of public arguments and cryptic social media posts, with fans speculating about cheating and trust issues. Fox even hinted at betrayal by posting a caption quoting Beyoncé’s Lemonade lyrics about dishonesty.
While MGK is struggling with both personal loss and heartbreak, sources say Fox is determined to break the cycle and not repeat the past. “She doesn’t want to put herself in the same position again,” an insider explained.
