The Beverly Hills, 90210 alum, who was married to Fox, 38, for a decade, made it clear that he’s fed up with the 34-year-old singer.
Last week, Machine Gun Kelly appeared to hit back at reports from TMZ that he and his pregnant ex were not speaking to one another after he shared a cryptic post on Instagram.
He revealed his new beard and hairstyle as he asked his followers: “how can ‘sources say’ when the sources haven’t said anything.”
In a now-deleted Instagram Story shared on Sunday (February 2), Green reposted an image that had been shared by a fan page, refuting the claims that the pair were not speaking in the lead-up to their baby’s due date next month.
He wrote in the caption: “Bro. Just be honest for once in your life,” adding: “Stop caring so much about how you’re perceived that you will try and drag other people.” To accompany the post, the 51-year-old included a clip of MGK’s track ‘Don’t Let Me Go’.
The dad-of-five’s fiery post comes amid ongoing speculation about Fox and MGK’s split, which made headlines in December 2024 – less than a month after they announced they were expecting a baby together.

Before her relationship with MGK, Fox was married to Green for 11 years. The former couple, who finalized their divorce in 2021, share three sons: Noah, 12, Bodhi, 10, and Journey, eight.
Meanwhile, MGK, whose real name is Colson Baker, is also a father to 15-year-old daughter Casie from a previous relationship.
Green has previously voiced his frustration about the ‘Home’ musician amid the sudden split from Fox, which was alleged to be because she found something on his phone. Speaking to TMZ in December, he said: “He’s in his 30s, isn’t he? In your 30s, f***. Grow up. Like, she’s pregnant.”
But despite his anger, Green also shared that his main concern is Fox’s well-being, along with their three children. “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 that,” he said.
Ultimately, the Knots Landing actor – who also has a two-year-old son, Zane, with fiancée Sharna Burgess, and a 22-year-old son, Kassius, with ex Vanessa Marcil – hopes for a positive outcome.
“I hope that the best outcome that could possibly happen happens for her, and for the baby, and for our kids,” he concluded.

While Fox and MGK have largely stayed quiet about their split, the ‘Lonely Road’ artist’s recent post appeared to address reports that the two were no longer on speaking terms.
On January 28, Baker posted a cryptic message to Instagram, writing: “How can ‘sources say’ when the sources haven’t said anything?”
Though he didn’t clarify the statement, it seemed to challenge TMZ’s report that he and the Transformers actress had gone completely silent toward each other.

Fox has previously been candid about the hardships she and MGK endured, including a heartbreaking miscarriage in 2023.
“That experience was so much harder than I would’ve anticipated it being,” the Subservience star told WWD. “And I’ve really analyzed ‘why was that? Why was that so difficult for me?’”
She revealed that she had suffered an ectopic pregnancy in the past and experienced other complications, but this particular loss was especially painful. “Not with someone who I was so in love with,” she added.
While she was grateful to have her former partner by her side, she also said that their deep connection made the loss even harder.
“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 said.
