Megan Fox had befitting to reply to all the trolls that criticize her for dating Machine Gun Kelly who is younger than her. The duo began dating in 2020 post Fox's divorce with her husband Brain Green Austin after 10 years of marriage. The actor in an interview with Instyle said that she received criticism was due to the fact that he's four years younger than her, and people want to act like she is dating a younger man. "He's 31, and I'm 35. Granted, he's lived like he's 19 his whole life, but he isn't 19". She said that this was how patriarchy worked and no one would blink an eye if George Clooney dated someone younger than him. Fox further added that it was ridiculous how women were treated. She called them out and said, "We would have been in high school together."
