Fox and MGK first properly meet in Puerto Rico on set of the crime thriller Midnight in the Switchgrass. During filming, the rapper posts a photo on Instagram of his and Fox’s cast chairs next to one another on set.
They give their first joint interview on a Give Them Lala podcast episode, in which Fox talks about the immediate connection she felt toward Kelly from the outset of filming Midnight in the Switchgrass.
MGK opens up about falling in love. In an appearance on The Howard Stern Show, Kelly opens up about the way Fox changed his perspective on love, telling host Stern that he “didn’t know what [love] was” until making eye contact with the actress.
MGK calls Fox his wife while performing at the Billboard Music Awards, during which he tells the audience that his next song, “Twin Flame,” is (unsurprisingly) dedicated to her. “I wrote this song for my wife,” he says onstage.
MGK and Fox make their most public joint outing together in months. The couple have their first low-key public outing at Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’s launch party in New York City.
