Machine Gun Kelly admits he ‘started smoking again’ after Megan Fox confirms engagement ended

Machine Gun Kelly has picked up smoking again after Megan Fox confirmed they called off their engagement.

The “Bloody Valentine” singer, 33, posted a video on his Instagram Story Thursday showing himself and rapper Trippie Redd both lighting up as they performed onstage together for a crowd of screaming fans in New York City.

“started smoking again,” he captioned the post. “life’s been weird lately but grateful i have yall.”

While Kelly didn’t specify what exactly he was puffing on, he included a cigarette emoji in his message.

Smoke swirled around both artists as they looked into the camera and performed their new collaboration, “Lost Boys.”

Kelly fell off the wagon just weeks after Fox, 37, finally shared that they had ended their engagement, though she played coy about the current status of their on-off relationship.

“What I’ve learned from being in this relationship is that it’s not for public consumption,” the actress, 37, said in the March 20 episode of Alex Cooper’s “Call Her Daddy” podcast.

“So, I think, as of now, I don’t have a comment on the status of the relationship, per se.”

Fox noted that she will always have a strong bond with MGK no matter what.

“What I can say is, that is what I refer to as being my ‘twin soul,’ and there will always be a tether to him no matter what,” she said. “I can’t say what the capacity will be, but I will always be connected to him somehow. Beyond that, I’m not willing to explain.”

The duo are reportedly living separately, with sources claiming that the “Transformers” star is staying in Malibu, Calif., while Kelly, whose real name is Colson Baker, is residing in their Encino mansion.

“They did this arrangement to give each other some space while still being together,” an insider told Us Weekly “[They] are at a low moment right now. It changes everyday.”

The couple dated for nearly two years before announcing their engagement in January 2022.

Their relationship was rocked by breakup rumors last February when Fox scrubbed Kelly from her Instagram and unfollowed his account.

Fans speculated that Kelly had cheated on Fox with his guitarist Sophie Lloyd. However, the “Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen” star took to Instagram to shut down the gossip.

“There has been no third party interference in this relationship of any kind. That includes, but is not limited to…actual humans, DMs, AI bots or succubus demons,” she wrote at the time.

Two months later, they seemed to have worked through their issues and were spotted on a romantic vacation in Hawaii.

From there, they continued to step out in public together, showing PDA in Aspen in January and at the Super Bowl the following month.

Fox also wrote about their relationship woes in her poetry book, “Pretty Boys Are Poisonous,” last December. In addition to touching on some of her partner’s toxic traits, she revealed she suffered a miscarriage during their relationship.

Kelly appears to be living life as usual since his relationship status with Fox became murky.

He was spotted “in good spirits” while stepping out for dinner with his 14-year-old daughter, Casie, in Miami last week.

The “Holiday in the Sun” star is also a parent; she shares three children, Noah, 11, Bodhi, 10, and Journey, 7, with her ex-husband, Brian Austin Green.
