Come for the beautiful proposal and stunning two-stone ring, stay for the hilariously confused reactions to "…and then we drank each other’s blood."
It's social media official so it's real now. Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly have followed their spiritual twins in couple form, Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker, into engaged bliss.
The couple shared the big news to their social media accounts on Wednesday, with Travis, Kourtney and even Kim Kardashian among the first to share their congratulations. According to Fox's date, the actual proposal went down on Tuesday (but it did take time for MGK to edit down all those camera angles he had on her for the big moment).

In his post, MGK talked about how he designed the ring he gave her with two stones, taking advantage of the fact that his birth stone is already the diamond. Megan's is an emerald. Working with Stephen Webster, the stones are "set on two magnetic bands of thorns that draw together as two halves of the same soul forming the obscure heart that is our love."
Sharing a video that has so many different camera placements the proposal itself was clearly as designed by MGK as the ring, Megan used her caption to share a bit of the story of their love, culminating in a final statement that's -- well, of course it is.

View StoryShe shared that the proposal came under the same banyan tree they began their "short, frenetic" relationship under a year and a half ago. "We were oblivious to the pain we would face together," she wrote. "Unaware of the work and sacrifices the relationship would require from us but intoxicated off of the love. And the karma."
She then got poetic, evoking eternity by saying that when he proposed she said yes, "just as in every lifetime before this one, and as in every lifetime that will follow it."
And that coda statement that kind of comes out of left field, unless you're familiar at all with this couple? "…and then we drank each other’s blood." Like you do.
