It seems like fans may finally know why Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly had an argument over Super Bowl weekend that almost ended their relationship.

Last Sunday, the 36-year-old actress shared a post about "dishonesty" and deleted most of her photos featuring the rocker, including their January 2022 engagement. Although many fans thought their relationship was over for good, they were seen at a marriage counselor's office the following day.

The song, which is about infidelity, seemed to be the biggest clue to their argument. Of course, nothing has been confirmed at this point.
