Machine Gun Kelly’s guitarist Sophie Lloyd vehemently refutes rumors that she was involved in the couple’s alleged relationship problems with Megan Fox. According to People, Sophie Lloyd’s representatives claimed in a statement released on February 16 that she had been unnecessarily “dragged into the public based off of meritless charges made via social media.” The statement was first reported by Page Six. “Any allegations that she ever behaved impertinently or ended their relationship are unfounded. Any other information is bad journalism and social commentary, and it is demeaning to her as a female artist to convey it.” A request for comment from POPSUGAR was not immediately answered by representatives for Lloyd.
When Fox posted a carousel of images on her since-deleted Instagram account with the lyrics “I can taste the dishonesty/all it’s over your breath,” rumors about Lloyd and Kelly initially started to circulate. The song’s lyrics are from Beyoncé’s “Lemonade,” a record famously about JAY-adultery Z’s and the source of Kelly cheating rumors. She also added a picture of a burning envelope at the end of the carousel and a banner with the words “When you can’t walk away” that could be seen behind Fox in the selfies.
The user who made the comment “Maybe he got with Sophie” was promptly answered by Fox with “Maybe I got with Sophie.” Fox canceled her Instagram account the next day.hortly after Fox’s initial incendiary post sparked rumours that she and Kelly had broken up, a source told People that the pair had a serious fight at Drake’s Super Bowl party that weekend. Fox was apparently “very upset” with Kelly after the fight and wouldn’t “speak to him.” The pair apparently “haven’t officially called off the engagement,” according to the source, but Fox “took her ring off.” However, they were spotted out together the following day and then again on Valentine’s Day, as per TMZ.
The pair first started dating in 2020 after meeting on the set of “Midnight in the Switchgrass.” They announced their engagement in January 2022. “In July of 2020 we sat under this banyan tree. We asked for magic,” Fox wrote in the caption beneath her engagement announcement. “We were oblivious to the pain we would face together in such a short, frenetic period of time . . . Somehow a year and a half later, having walked through hell together, and having laughed more than I ever imagined possible, he asked me to marry him.”
