Megan Fox is more than happy to see her ex Machine Gun Kelly moving on with Dakota Johnson<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cMegan isn\u2019t just unbothered by MGK dating Dakota \u2014 she\u2019s actually relieved he\u2019s moving on,\u201d a source exclusively told Page Six.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe genuinely wants him to find happiness with someone else because she\u2019s totally done with that chapter of her life. She doesn\u2019t want him back, and she doesn\u2019t want to keep revisiting their relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n

The insider\u2019s comments came after TMZ reported<\/a> Thursday that Fox, 40, was \u201cunbothered\u201d by her ex-fianc\u00e9\u2019s budding romance with Johnson, 37, and had no interest in getting involved in his love life.<\/p>\n

The \u201cTransformers\u201d star and the rocker, 36, whose real name is Colson Baker, have maintained a good co-parenting relationship<\/a> since welcoming their daughter, Saga Blade, in March 2025.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey have a daughter together, so obviously he\u2019s always going to be part of her life, and they have a good co-parenting relationship,\u201d the insider explained. \u201cBut that\u2019s where it ends for her. She wants them to be great parents without any confusion about where they stand romantically.\u201d<\/p>\n

The source said Fox\u2019s relief also stems from MGK\u2019s flirtatious behavior toward her following their breakup.<\/p>\n

In March, the \u201cBloody Valentine\u201d singer made headlines after commenting, \u201cStoked i have your phone number,\u201d on a series of racy Instagram photos Fox shared following her return to the social media platform.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven after they broke up, he was still leaving those flirty comments on her Instagram<\/a>, and it felt like he was trying to get her attention,\u201d the insider said.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom Megan\u2019s perspective, it\u2019s like, \u2018We tried, it didn\u2019t work, and I\u2019ve moved on.\u2019 She doesn\u2019t want to keep going through that back and forth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now that MGK has been spending time with Johnson, Fox is hoping his attention will shift away from their past romance.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf anything, she\u2019s hoping being with Dakota means MGK will finally put his romantic energy into someone else instead of focusing on Megan,\u201d the source said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not that she has anything against Dakota. Actually, it\u2019s the opposite. Megan genuinely hopes things work out between them because she wants MGK to be happy. She just doesn\u2019t want to be the person he\u2019s trying to have a romantic relationship with anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n

The insider added, \u201cIf MGK is happy with Dakota and focused on building something with her, that\u2019s exactly what Megan wants. She can focus on her own life, and they can focus on raising their child together without all the romantic drama getting in the way.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reps for Fox, MGK and Johnson did not immediately respond to Page Six\u2019s requests for comment.<\/p>\n
