Machine Gun Kelly (born Colson Baker) is reflecting on a challenging time in his life: when his fiancée Megan Fox experienced a miscarriage with their baby. He shared his raw feelings in a rap for the song “Don’t Let Me Go,” which was released Wednesday.
Verse About Miscarriage
In the song, MGK raps, per E! News, “How can I live with the fact/ That my hand wasn’t on her stomach when we lost the baby?” He adds, “I don’t got no one to turn to/ Because everyone’s dead in my life that was tryna raise me.”
Suffering a miscarriage would be so hard, and we can only imagine the pain he is going through!
Megan Fox’s Experience
The Jennifer’s Body star has also opened up about her miscarriage in her poetry book Pretty Boys Are Poisonous. Fox told Women’s Wear Daily, “That experience was so much harder than I would’ve anticipated it being, and I’ve really analyzed ‘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. But I’ve been through other similar issues, but not with someone who I was so in love with.”
“And so that love element really made this miscarriage really tragic for me and left me with a lot of grief and a lot of suffering,” she continued. “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.”
Mom of 3
Fox, who is mom to Noah, 10, Bodhi, 9, and Journey, 6, with ex-husband Bryan Austin Green, first revealed her miscarriage in a Nov. 2023 appearance on Good Morning America. “I had never been through anything like that before in my life,” Fox said. “I have three kids, so it was very difficult for both of us. And it sent us on a very wild journey together and separately, and together and apart, and together and apart, and together and apart, trying to navigate, ‘What does this mean? Why did this happen?’”
Because miscarriages have often been kept private, it’s healing to see major celebrities talking about it in such an intimate, open way. Our hearts go out to them, even as we appreciate the way their words may help other parents going through a miscarriage, too.
