Machine Gun Kelly has given insights into his family life, as fans are desperate to know more about his relationship with Megan Fox and their daughter.

Earlier this year in March, Machine Gun Kelly, real name Colson Baker, revealed that his former partner and fiancé Megan Fox was born.

Since then, fans have been starving for more information about the pair’s daughter.

In June 17, their prayers were answered and Kelly uploaded of a video of him playing music for the baby and captioned it ‘Saga Blade Fox-Baker thank you for the ultimate gift Megan Fox'.

However, since then MGK hasn’t given much away about co-parenting or the meaning behind his daughter’s name.

Well, this week, while on the Jennifer Hudson Show, Kelly opened up about both topics.

When asked about his daughter’s name, he said: “My ancestors, and my family is Norwegian, and there's a Norwegian goddess named Saga, and it means 'epic story’.

“And so we named her Saga because to get her on this earth through highs and lows, it truly was an epic story of love, pain, and a lot of magic."

He also went on to praise Fox on how she co-parents with him. He said she is ‘the person who is the greatest partner and ‘the greatest person to have had a child with’ because ‘she's such a phenomenal mom’.

He added: "We go back and forth on who she looks like. Like last month she looked exactly like me and now she looks exactly like her. It changes, you know?”

While many fans were just happy to know more about the daughter’s name, some eagle fans pointed out that Fox and Kelly had hinted at what their child could be called way back in 2021, well one of her names at least.

During a GQ interview, Fox and Kelly discussed middle names, and Baker revealed that he didn’t actually have one.

The then-couple joked about what he would want it to be, with Fox throwing a bunch of names out.

She said: “Can I guess what your middle name would be? Blade? Sword, Katana, Chaos, Hectic, Violence, Rebel.”

Kelly tried to cut Fox off after she said Blade, insisting that was the name he would choose.

People online found this rather cute, that the singer was able to give his daughter the middle name that he would give himself.
