“MGK really looks up to Travis,” the insider shared. “Travis, being sober and experienced, didn’t coddle him. Instead, he encouraged him to take responsibility and get his life together.” The 49-year-old musician also mediated between the couple, convincing Megan not to close the door entirely. Once MGK, 34, showed he was serious about making changes, including getting sober, Travis helped initiate therapy for the pair.
The journey wasn’t easy. Megan, 38, and MGK, who started dating in 2020 and got engaged in 2022, faced rumors of a breakup last year after Megan removed photos of MGK from her social media. Despite reconciling months later, it wasn’t until August 2023 that MGK took a major step by entering rehab and achieving sobriety. He credited his daughter, Casie, and his relationship with Megan for inspiring him to make a change.
Now, the couple is overjoyed about expecting their first child together. Megan shared that their kids from previous relationships are equally thrilled about the new addition. MGK has a 15-year-old daughter, Casie, while Megan shares three children with ex-husband Brian Austin Green.
The baby news comes a year after Megan revealed a past pregnancy loss, describing it as a deeply challenging experience. Reflecting on their journey, a source said, “MGK is incredibly grateful for Megan’s second chance and feels this baby is a testament to their love.”
