Megan Fox has revealed she suffered an ectopic pregnancy.
The Transformers star, 37, who previously revealed she miscarried her and fiancé Machine Gun Kelly’s child, has opened up about another pregnancy complication she suffered long before she was with the musician.
In an interview with WWD, she said: “I’ve really analysed ‘why was that? Why was that so difficult for me?’
“Because when I was younger, I had an ectopic pregnancy. I’ve had other things that I’m not going to say because God forbid the world will be in an uproar.”
Referring to MGK — whose real name is Colson Baker — she said: “I’ve been through other similar issues, but not with someone who I was so in love with.”
Fox — who has Noah, 10, Bodhi, nine, and seven-year-old Journey with ex-husband Brian Austin Green, 50 — admits it was even more “tragic” losing her unborn child with someone she truly loves.

Sharing how they both used their creative outlets to channel their grief, she added: “That love element really made this miscarriage really tragic for me, and left me with a lot of grief and a lot of suffering. So, I put it into a lot of writing. He’s written about them in his albums as well, he wrote a couple of songs about the miscarriage. So it just felt like something that I could address publicly because it’s been addressed in one way through him, so I have a space to express as well.”
Fox detailed in her poetry book Pretty Boys Are Poisonous details about her miscarriage, love addiction, and abuse.
In a statement, she said: “These poems were written in an attempt to excise the illness that had taken root in me because of my silence. I’ve spent my entire life keeping the secrets of men, my body aches from carrying the weight of their sins.
“My freedom lives in these pages, and I hope that my words can inspire others to take back their happiness and their identity by using their voice to illuminate what’s been buried, but not forgotten, in the darkness.”
And MGK, 33, dedicated his song Twin Flame to his wife and their unborn baby.
