Shortly after news broke about her split from the rapper, rumors of a romance between the Jennifer's Body actress and Michele Morrone—who starred alongside her in the 2024 film Subservience—began circulating online. And now, Michele is setting the record straight.
"Any accusations beyond a work friendship are simply untrue," a rep for the 365 Days star told E! News Dec. 10. "They filmed a movie together a year ago. Michele is currently in Italy filming another project."
E! News reached out to a rep for Megan for comment on the dating rumors but has not heard back.
Michele and Megan—who is expecting a baby with MGK—first fueled the dating rumor mill when a resurfaced video of the pair doing a Q&A session together while on set of Subservience went viral. In one clip from the joint interview posted to X Dec. 9, the Transformers star rested her arm on the Sirene actor's shoulder while she corrected him on the pronunciation of "SpongeBob." In response, the 34-year-old smiled back at Megan before purposefully getting her instruction wrong again.
Following the video's circulation, fans began theorizing that the costars were dating.
"After I saw that video of her and Michele Morrone," one user wrote on X Dec. 10, "I wouldn’t be surprised if they end up together tbh, bc babyyyyy."

Another user added of her breakup with MGK, "As soon as I saw her doing the movie with Michele Morrone, I knew it was only a matter of time."
Despite the online chatter, Megan and the "Lonely Road" musician—who is dad to 15-year-old daughter Casiewith ex Emma Cannon—haven't spoken publicly about the reason for their split, which was revealed by multiple outlets on Dec. 10, one month after announcing they were expecting a baby together.
However, Megan—who shares kids Noah, 10, Bodhi, 9, and Journey, 7, with ex-husband Brian Austin Green—has recently provided a glimpse into how their blended family is preparing for the arrival of their little one.
“The kids are all super excited for another addition to the family,” she toldPeoplein an interview published Dec. 2, “and have promised to help out and pitch in.”
