Brian Austin Green, known for his role on Beverly Hills, 90210, has recently made headlines not just for his acting career, but also for how he's been handling personal matters post-split from ex-wife Megan Fox. This past weekend, Green stepped out with fiancée Sharna Burgess for the Global Gaming League official launch event held at their headquarters in Las Vegas, and he appeared to be enjoying life as they posed together on the red carpet.
The couple seemed happy, with Green, 51, wrapping his arm around Burgess, who looked fashionable in her black lacy and strappy attire. Green complemented her outfit with his own stylish gray bomber jacket layered over a white T-shirt and gray jeans, paired with high-top sneakers. Holding hands and flashing bright smiles, the duo's public appearance came just days after Green made pointed remarks about Machine Gun Kelly (MGK), Fox's recent ex-fiancé, and the split between Fox and MGK.
Megan Fox, who is currently pregnant with her fourth child, recently broke up with MGK after reports surfaced indicating trust issues within their relationship. Sources claimed Fox ended the relationship after discovering concerning messages on MGK's phone. The couple, who had previously announced their pregnancy, faced scrutiny from both friends and media amid reports of MGK being a potentially "toxic influence" on Fox's well-being.
Green commented on the situation with MGK during his outing, displaying both concern and empathy for Fox’s predicament. Expressing his thoughts candidly, he stated during his chat with TMZ, "I didn’t even know [about the breakup]. I had no idea," before adding, "How old is he? He's in his 30s, isn't he? But, like, I don’t know, grow up." His remarks came after he was prompted about MGK potentially no longer being involved with Fox and their forthcoming child, displaying Green's desire for the best outcome for his ex-wife and their children.
Green and Fox's marriage, which lasted from 2010 to 2022, produced three sons: Noah (12), Bodhi (10), and Journey (8). The actor has also been candid about co-parenting with Fox, as they both navigate their new relationships. "That’s a shame," he lamented about the breakup between Fox and MGK, noting how excited their children were about the new addition to their family. He expressed heartache for Fox, stating, "I'm heartbroken about it because I know she's been so excited and the kids are so excited for life and the change and all of it."
Following the split, sources close to Fox reportedly told media outlets they believe Fox's friends want her to end her relationship with MGK for good. Concern was expressed over the cycles of breakups and reconciliations contributing to the star's distress. One source emphasized, "She has a history of taking him back, even when things don’t get anybetter. She deserves more than this." Fox's recent experience reflects her struggles with infidelity and trust, particularly after suffering a miscarriage previously with MGK.
Green's words indicated he still holds nostalgia for his relationship with Fox even after their split. The couple started dating back in 2004 when Fox was just starting her career. They split briefly before getting engaged again just days before their wedding on June 24, 2010. Their marriage has witnessed its ups and downs, including separations and reconciliations, leaving both parents now focused on their children.
Recently, as Fox navigates her pregnancy and the end of her engagement with MGK, she remains hopeful for her family's future. During her pregnancy announcement on November 11, she reflected on her past experiences with loss and the emotional depth associated with her current situation. With Green showing consideration for Fox's new chapter, he emphasized, "If that's the case — and I don't know the facts of it — but if that's the case it's tragic, and I wouldn't wish it on anybody."
Overall, Green's recent public appearance alongside Burgess, along with his comments about MGK, highlight his current enjoyment of life post-split. He and Burgess have been together since late 2020, and they share son Zane, now two years old. Their growing family dynamic offers Green avenues for happiness, as he balances co-parenting with Fox and fostering his relationship with Burgess.
Green’s remarks and their underlying themes of family, empathy, and concern for his ex-articulately capture the delicate balance many navigate as they transition through changes in personal relationships. His candid reflections on MGK and Fox’s split reveal not only his protective instincts as a parent but also his willingness to support Fox through difficult times.
Despite challenges, Green and Burgess’ relationship appears to be flourishing, as they embrace their roles as parents, providing one another emotional support as they all face the realities of co-parenting and new beginnings.
