Machine Gun Kelly and pregnant Megan Fox have made headlines this week when they announced their explosive split, but according to one body language expert, the two “were never a couple who shared more than their adopted star personas” with the world.
Since 2020, the couple has been in an on-again, off-again relationship, and at one point even took it a step further by getting engaged.
And just a month ago, in November, Fox announced she was pregnant after suffering a miscarriage in an emotional Instagram post.
However, it looks like things are done for good between the two, as it was revealed that Fox allegedly broke up with Kelly after finding text messages from other women on his phone.
Now, according to body language expert Judi James, who analyzed a series of photographs of the couple taken throughout their romance, including the most recent sighting of the two in August, they seemed focused on their public appearance together.
“Megan and MGK’s body language and style made them the red carpet version of Barbie and Ken in rock mode,” James exclusively revealed to DailyMail.com.
“Performative in terms of their poses together, they brought a sense of performance art to their appearances, as they seemed eager to outdo Kourtney (Kardashian) and Travis (Barker) in terms of super-stylized ‘grunge’ sexiness,” he continued. .
James also noted that when they were together, Megan tended to “seem like the adult in the room,” as she was an “expert camera chaser and effortless lens hoarder,” while Kelly seemed like the complete opposite.
A body language expert tells DailyMail.com that Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly have been “performative” in public (the couple is pictured in August).
“They were never a couple who shared more than their adopted star personas,” The Body Language Bible star told DailyMail.com.
“MGK often displayed a more shy smile and docile demeanor that suggested he was a little childishly in awe of both his girlfriend and her levels of press interest when they appeared as a couple,” James explained.
However, he did note that Kelly’s body language seemed to “grow” throughout their long relationship, even emerging “in fits of defiance and altercation with the press as Meghan pouted and squirmed but pretty much stayed out of the picture.” path”.
“They were never a couple who shared more than their adopted star personas,” The Body Language Bible star told DailyMail.com.
“Even their sexiest red carpet poses look better in context, as they are repeated every time they hit another chalk mark on the carpet.
“His lasting sign of love language or PDA (public displays of affection) off the red carpet was his handshake, that was kind of a constant.”
However, their latest appearances together seemed to speak to their relationship, according to James.
When they were last seen together in August, they seemed to be back in “celebrity duo mode,” James said.
“Megan seemed happy posing slightly behind MGK and holding his hand with the kind of facial expression with downcast eyes and a demure smile usually seen on celebrity wives who want to appear coyly smitten with their partner.”
In November, the two were seen together again, when Fox coyly showed support for Kelly while attending the GQ Men of the Year event in Los Angeles.

“MGK was in ‘eternal teen’ mode with his style, but Megan’s T-shirt suggested he was happy to offer a compatible style ‘fit.'”

Witnesses said Kelly stayed at the party for 45 minutes to an hour before leaving and returning home to the expectant mother.
However, according to the body language expert, Fox remaining in the car was a “red flag.”
“The moment Megan stayed in the back of the car while MGK left to appear at another event was a red flag,” James explained.
‘Could you have gone with him for the walk just to say a fond farewell before he attended alone? He made a gesture with his hand as he got out of the car that became more of a weak tap for the cameras, (walking) with his head and shoulders bowed before melting into the shadows leading to the entrance.’
He even suggested that Fox had been ready to go to the appearance before shying away from it.
“However, Megan was seen in the car and gave no indication that she had gone out for a simple walk before sitting on the sofa at home to relax in front of a takeaway,” James said.
“She seemed prepared for an appearance and her facial expression in one (picture) made her look unhappy or hurt.”
Since 2020, the couple has been in an on-off relationship and are currently expecting a child together.
Just months before the two split in March, Fox admitted during an interview on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast that she and Kelly were “soulmates” despite their relationship status.
“What I can say is that (he) is what I call my ‘soulmate,’ and there will always be a bond with him, no matter what,” she said on the podcast.
‘I can’t say for sure what the capacity will be, but I will always be connected to it in some way. Beyond that, I’m not willing to explain.
‘All those things you said were precise things that have happened. And I could see them being confusing or interesting to people and saying, “What’s wrong?”
