Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox are all in.

At the premiere of Machine Gun Kelly’s Hulu documentary "Machine Gun Kelly’s Life in Pink," the actress and fiancée of the rapper, Megan Fox, discussed with Entertainment Tonight that she has gone to therapy with Colson Baker after the incident where the rock star tried to take his own life while being on call with Megan.

Megan revealed that they have done every form of therapy that exists and they have found a therapist that works for them, as a couple and as individuals, and adds that it’s a process and it’s not easy. She added that some of it is very difficult and challenging for them, but their therapist said that the relationship is the process of breaking each other down, but most people don’t have the tools to build each other back up to rebuild.

Megan Fox, who is also featured in the documentary, shared that it’s a constant process of like suffering and passion and love and repeat cycles, so both of them are learning that, navigating that, and doing everything needed together and concluded that there are lots of all of those things all of the time.

The documentary on Hulu takes the audience backstage and into the life of Colson Baker and features a segment where the rapper reveals that after his father passed away in 2020 and on the anniversary of his album Hotel Diablo, he went back to his apartment to clear some stuff and had an encounter with one of the neighbors who told him stuff that fucked him more than he was after his father’s demise. Machine Gun Kelly stated that those events remained in his mind, and he refused to leave his hotel room, he was having obsessive thoughts that someone was going to murder him.

Colson Baker shared that his paranoia was too bad and he was sleeping with a shotgun beside his bed and one night he snapped and put it in his mouth while he was on a call with Megan Fox, who went to Bulgaria for filming a movie, and he told her that she was not there for him, but luckily the shell of the shotgun was jammed and he survived. Machine Gun Kelly not only survived but also realized that for Megan Fox and his 12-year-old daughter Casie Colson Baker, he needs to get drugs out of his system for good. (It was not mentioned in the documentary that whether he was on drugs when he attempted the suicide or not) In an interview in 2020, Machine Gun Kelly opened up about his mental health struggles and said  during his therapy session, he was finally able to recognize that he needed to separate the two people, Colson Baker and Machine Gun Kelly, from each other because the dichotomy was too intense for him.

Machine Gun Kelly further explains that Megan Fox became his sun and inspired him to grow and write songs. He further explains that their fairy tale is something the teachers do not tell the children in school. The passion between them is just otherworldly. The couple announced their engagement in January and are in the process of planning their fairy tale wedding. Some people speculate that they are already married since Machine Gun Kelly addressed Megan Fox as his wife during his performance at the Billboard Music Awards in May.

Speaking about that, Machine Gun Kelly said that he calls Megan Fox his wife as a sign of respect and said that he thinks when he speaks about the terminology. According to him, their relationship never felt like a girlfriend-boyfriend thing and it felt too adolescent for the depth of their relationship. Megan also added that Colson has got all the names and confirmed that they are not married yet and they have no idea when it is going to happen since Machine Gun Kelly is on tour this year. She said it’s going to happen when it’s going to happen and that the universe is going to open up and give them space to do that.
