Megan Fox, renowned for her roles in movies like “Transformers” and “Jennifer’s Body,” has joined a growing number of celebrity women who are shedding light on their scrutinized lives in Hollywood through personal writing. In her new book of poetry, she delves into deeply personal experiences, including the emotional turmoil of experiencing a miscarriage and her encounters with “horrific people” in abusive relationships. Megan Fox opened up about these experiences during an interview with Good Morning America on Tuesday.
In her poetry, Fox reflects on the pain of having a miscarriage at 10 weeks while engaged to the musician Machine Gun Kelly. She shares poignant lines like, “I want to hold your hand / hear your laugh…but now / I have to say / goodbye,” and, “I will pay any price / Tell me please / what is the ransom / for her soul?”
Fox spoke candidly about the profound impact of this loss on her life, stating, “I had never been through anything like that before in my life. I have three kids, so it was very difficult for both of us. And it sent us on a very wild journey together and separately, and together and apart, and together and apart, and together and apart, trying to navigate, ‘What does this mean? Why did this happen?'”
Some of Fox’s other poems reveal even darker experiences, including a physically abusive relationship with an unnamed man. “your eyes go black / and I know it’s too late to run…you hit me / again / and again / i recognize the familiar taste of blood on my tongue,” she writes. a growing number
The book, entitled Pretty Boys Are Poisonous, is “not an exposé… or a memoir,” Fox emphasized to GMA, “but throughout my life I have been in at least one physically abusive relationship and several psychologically very abusive relationships. I have only been publicly connected to a few people, but I shared energy with, I guess we could say, who were horrific people. And also very famous—very famous—people. But no one knows that I was involved with those people.”
