Megan Fox shut down the rumours by sharing a screenshot of the tweet on her social media handle with a long note. She began by saying that she did not wish to give this attention to him as he was a clout chaser.
However, she decided to teach him a lesson. She wrote, "Regardless of how desperate you may become at any given time to acquire wealth, power, success, or fame - never use children as leverage or social currency. Especially under malevolent and erroneous pretense, exploiting my child’s gender identity to gain attention in your political campaign has put you on the wrong side of the universe." Megan further added that there have been times when men like him have messed with her and she will never endure it.
