A resurfaced video of Megan Fox and Michele Morrone had fans buzzing that the Jennifer’s Body star had already moved on from ex-fiancé Machine Gun Kelly. While Michele’s rep confirmed that there was nothing going on between the two, fans are still dying to know more about the Italian actor.
Who Is Michele Morrone?
Michele was born in Milan, Italy, in 1990, and is the youngest of four children. He has three older sisters. When he was growing up, his mother worked as a seamstress, while his dad earned money as a construction worker.
Michele credits watching the Harry Potter films when he was younger as his inspiration to go into acting. Along with being an actor, Michele has worked as a model, singer and fashion designer.
Is Michele Morrone Married?
In 2014, Michele married Rouba Saadeh, a Lebanese stylist. The same year they tied the knot, Michele and Rouba welcomed their first son, Marcus, together. Rouba gave birth to their second child, another little boy named Brando, three years later in 2017. However, the following year the former couple decided to part ways.
Michele previously opened up about how the divorce affected him and revealed that it almost caused him to quit acting altogether.
“A year and a half ago I was about to leave everything, I didn’t want to act anymore. I was in a severe state of depression after divorcing my wife,” Michele wrote via Instagram in February 2020. “I found work as a gardener in a remote village of 1000 inhabitants because I had no more money in my pocket. But life is strange, when you’re down destiny puts the right train in front of you and if you’re strong you can take it. Always believe in yourself… ALWAYS.”
Why Was Michele Morrone Rumored to Be Dating Megan Fox?
Shortly after Megan and Machine Gun Kelly broke up at the end of November 2024, a video resurfaced of Michele and Megan that had some fans raising their eyebrows. A few people online felt that Michele and Megan were being flirty with one another in the clip, but TMZ reported that the video was taken during their time filming the movie Subservience together and was over a year old.
The rumors quickly got out of hand, and Michele’s rep made a statement on his behalf to put the whispers to rest.
“Any accusations beyond a work friendship are simply untrue. They filmed a movie together a year ago. Michele is currently in Italy filming another project,” a spokesperson for Michele told TMZ in an article published on December 10, 2024.
News of Megan and MGK’s split shocked fans, coming just weeks after the former couple announced they were expecting their first child together. However, sources told Us Weekly that the couple had actually “broken up several times” since their pregnancy announcement.
“Their relationship is so full of passion and that leads them to get back together over and over, but also to fight in the most toxic of ways,” the insider told the outlet on December 10, 2024. “Their fights have gotten less intense now that MGK is sober, but they still have such a hard time having a stable relationship with each other.”
