Over the years, Machine Gun Kelly has gushed about being a father.

The musician welcomed his first child, daughter Casie, with ex-girlfriend Emma Cannon in July 2009, and Kelly has been open about trying to have a different relationship with his daughter compared to his own parents.

“As much as a f— up people say I am, I pray that I have the connection I didn’t have with my parents with my kid. When I’m with her, nothing else matters,” he said on the “Life Lessons” YouTube series 2015. “If it was a mistake, own up. It’s not gonna be a mistake when you see that beautiful little girl pop up and you see those breaths come.”

Kelly will welcome his second child with fiancée Megan Fox, who announced in November 2024 that she was pregnant with their first baby together after previously suffering a miscarriage. Kelly detailed the pregnancy loss in his June 2022 song, “Last November,” and dedicated a performance of his song “Twin Flame” to Fox and their “unborn child” at the Billboard Music Awards in May 2022.

The couple’s rainbow baby will be Fox’s fourth, as she shares three children with ex-husband Brian Austin Green — sons Noah, Bodhi and Journey — with whom Kelly has bonded.
