Why Megan Fox «Feels Grateful» for the Co-Parenting Support of Brian Austin Green and Sharna Burgess During Her Split from MGK (Exclusive Insight)
Megan Fox is grateful for the co-parenting support she receives from her ex, Brian Austin Green, and his wife, Sharna Burgess, as she navigates her split from ex-fiancé Machine Gun Kelly.
A source tells PEOPLE that Fox, 38, who is currently expecting her third child—her first with Kelly, 34—is in a positive place with both Burgess, 39, and Green, 51, with whom she shares three sons: Noah, 12, Bodhi, 10, and Journey, 8.
«She’s been really happy about her pregnancy,» the source shares. «She’s in a good space with both Brian and Sharna. Megan gets along really well with Sharna and trusts her around the kids.»
«Brian is also an amazing dad. Megan feels lucky that her boys are always surrounded by love and well cared for,» the source adds.
In November, Megan Fox revealed that she is expecting her first child with Machine Gun Kelly (born Colson Baker). The actress shared a striking Instagram post, where she cradled her baby bump while covered in black liquid. In another photo, she held up a positive pregnancy test to the camera.
«Nothing is ever really lost. Welcome back 👼🏼❤️,» she captioned the post, quoting lyrics from Kelly’s song Last November, which reflects on their past pregnancy loss.
This past April, Brian Austin Green shared his approach to co-parenting his three children with Fox, offering insights into their dynamic. Speaking with E! News at the Steel City Comic Con, Green emphasized the importance of keeping the kids’ needs at the center of everything.
«The number one thing is to always focus on the kids’ experience,» Green said. «A lot of people make the mistake of trying to shield the kids from the effects of the separation, but of course, it’s going to affect them. The only control you have is in how it affects them.»
During an appearance on the Whine Down with Jana Kramer podcast in September 2023, Brian Austin Green and Sharna Burgess discussed their relationship with Megan Fox and how they navigate their blended family.
Burgess shared her perspective on having items from Fox in their home, including a frame that was gifted to them.
«I definitely didn’t feel like, ‘Everything must go!’ It’s more about doing it at our own pace as we build our life together,» she explained. «But I really love that frame and the message it holds. It came from Tracy [Green’s manager], who’s someone I care about deeply. She’s like family to us.»
