The couple, who have had a rocky on-again, off-again relationship, reportedly “aren’t on good terms” and have closed “the lines of communication,” sources told TMZ on Tuesday.

Fox, who announced her pregnancy just weeks before their split by debuting her baby bump, is said to “not want anything to do with” MGK. According to an insider, “Everyone in her orbit is happy about it. … They feel like she finally came to her senses by shutting him out of her life.”

While the dynamic between the exes is described as “icy,” it remains unclear how the rapper will be involved once their child arrives.

Despite the current tension, The Blast previously reported that Fox intends to co-parent with MGK.

Before the purchase, Fox had been living in a Malibu rental but has now settled into her new property. Conveniently, the location of her new home is closer to her ex-husband, Brian Austin Green, making co-parenting their three sons—Noah, 11, Bodhi, 9, and Journey, 7—easier.

Fox and Kelly’s tumultuous relationship began after meeting on the set of "Midnight in the Switchgrass" in 2021. They went public with their romance in 2020, shortly after Fox’s marriage to Green ended in May of that year. The "Bloody Valentine" artist proposed to Fox in January 2022, but the couple faced numerous hurdles, with wedding plans continuously delayed by their rocky relationship.

The pair officially called it quits in late November, following a series of reconciliations and breakups. As The Blast reported, Fox and Kelly attempted to work things out after news of her pregnancy, but ultimately couldn’t overcome their differences. “They were too hot-headed and fell back into their constant fighting,” the source explained.
