The COVD-19 pandemic has wreaked havoc on many celebrity relationships.
But Machine Gun Kelly has found solace in his relationship with Megan Fox and has even been drawn away from his rock star life.
The 30-year-old rapper – real name Richard Colson Baker – is featured on the cover on the latest issue of Nylon magazine as he talked about finding love with his 34-year-old actress girlfriend at a time where love is not ‘being encouraged.’

He explained: ‘In fact, it’s exactly the opposite: everything now is isolation, dehumanization, separation.
‘And f***, dude, you have in your head that you’re this rock star, with multiple women and all that.’
However, his relationship with Fox has taken him away from that party lifestyle and the Forget Me Too hitmaker doesn’t seem too bothered about that.
He explained: ‘So finding someone that can take you out of the fast lane and make sure that you’re safe, because at any minute you can crash—I love that it can evolve into that.’

Megan and Machine Gun Kelly did not take their relationship to a romantic level until May of this year, following Megan’s split from husband of 10-years, Brian Austin Green.
Green and Fox, who wed in 2010, share three sons, Noah Shannon, eight, Bodhi Ransom, six, and Journey, four.
Although their split started out amicable, tension has been brewing between the former couple for the past several months.
‘Megan and Brian have taken a turn for the worse because Megan can be unpredictable and inconsistent, which is a big reason that they separated in the first place,’ a source recently told US Weekly.

‘She can be very hot and cold, hard to keep track of and difficult to deal with,’ they went on.
However, things have been difficult for Brian since Megan has been dating rapper Machine Gun Kelly.
It was reportedly ‘an issue for Brian, then it wasn’t’ but has recently become a ‘more sensitive’ topic.
It comes after Megan slammed the 47-year-old actor for sharing a snap of their youngest son on Instagram in a post on Instagram.
The Transformers star questioned why Journey was not cropped out of the shot and claimed it was a tactic to highlight Brian as the better parent.

Commenting on the post, she wrote: ‘I had a great Halloween with them yesterday, and yet notice how absent they are from my social media.
‘I know you love your kids, but I don’t know why you can’t stop using them to posture via Instagram
‘You’re so intoxicated with feeding the pervasive narrative that I’m an absent mother, and you are the perennial, eternally dedicated dad of the year. You have them half of the time.’

She added: ‘Congratulations you truly are a remarkable human! Why do you need the internet to echo back to you what should be inexhaustibly evident in the way your children love you?’
Brain took down the original photo before uploading a new one with Journey cropped out.
It has been quite the year for the music artist as his album Tickets to My Downfall debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart in September.
For Tickets to My Downfall, Machine Gun Kelly ditched the rap persona that made him famous and switched to a pop-punk inspired sound.
