Machine Gun Kelly has baby on the brain.
The 34-year-old—whose ex Megan Fox is pregnant with their first baby together—shared some insight into his preparation ahead of becoming a father once again.
“Church was right on time today,” MGK—who is dad to 15-year-old daughter Casie with ex Emma Cannon—wrote on his Instagram Story Feb. 16, adding alongside emojis of a baby bottle and a man holding a baby, “Can’t wait.”
The words were written over an image of a church stage, which had a message projected which read, “Your past is not your purpose—your priority is ahead of you.”
The nod to his baby marks a rare occasion for the “Emo Girl” artist, who has remained relatively mum since Megan announced her pregnancy in November and in the two months since it was reported he and the Jennifer’s Body star broke up.
While neither party has commented on their split, MGK did share a look into his wellness journey after the fact—which included some self-reflection.
“He’s in his 30s, isn’t he?” Brian said of MGK to TMZ in December. “In your 30s, f–k. Grow up. Like, she’s pregnant.”
He then doubled down two months later, writing in a soon-deleted Instagram Story Feb. 2, “Just be honest for once in your life. Stop caring so much about how you’re perceived that you will try and drag other people.”
Following the comments, Brian backtracked, noting speaking publicly in that manner was “not something that I normally do.”

“But it just really at the time, really got under my skin to read about his sort of take on it,” Brian told People in an interview published Feb. 6. “So I spoke my mind, but then I’ve since come to terms with the fact that I won’t do that anymore.”
But as the Beverly Hills, 90210 alum previously told TMZ of his ex’s breakup, “I just want the best for her. I’m heartbroken about it because I know she’s been so excited and the kids are so excited for life and the change and all of that.”
