All eyes are on Megan Fox right now, and for good reason. The actress only recently returned to Instagram, following a cryptic post in February that seemed to suggest her fiancé Machine Gun Kelly had been unfaithful. While questions remain regarding the status of their engagement following the alleged cheating drama, the Transformers star dropped a second pic, and all hail the year of the black bikini

Megan Fox made her return to Instagram when she showed off a few looks from the recent SI swimsuit event, where she rocked a sheer black dress and red hair. See-through attire has definitely been a popular look with many celebrities recently, but it was the black bikini trend that had fans all hot and bothered in her most recent post: 

I’d love to know what MGK has to say about this look! The post follows months of uncertainty regarding his relationship with Megan Fox. Since the actress wiped her Instagram page in February, she has been seen without her thorny engagement ring. However, it was reported that they were trying to work through their issues in couple’s therapy, and they did attend the Sports Illustrated party together, so that could be a good sign.

Megan Fox stunned on the cover of Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit issue, which also featured the legendary Martha Stewart, LGBTQ+ icon Kim Petras and model Brooks Nader. But her Instagram post captured what seems to be the look of Summer 2023, as she sported swimwear in classic black. 

Halle Berry and Sydney Sweeney are among many to kick off the season by showing off their own pieces and, more recently, Emily Ratajkowski continued the trend, in a suit that included a little bling.

And while Barbiecore is another look embraced this year by Megan Fox and others, Barbie star Margot Robbie traded in the pink for her own black bikini at a Chanel fashion show in May. Don’t forget about Irinia Shayk, either. The model wished her followers a “Happy Thirst Day” as she showed her take on the trend.

Megan Fox’s return to Instagram follows months of drama and speculation about her relationship with Machine Gun Kelly. The rapper, whose real name is Colson Baker, proposed to the Jennifer’s Body star under a banyan tree in January 2022. The couple is known for their eccentric behavior, most notably their admission that they had a ritual in which they drank each other’s blood. However, fans had reason to believe they’d broken up as early as in August 2022 and, by February of this year, it was apparent that the relationship was in trouble. 

It’s good to see Megan Fox back on Instagram, as her fans surely have missed her posts and sometimes-risqué fashion choices. As for what it all means for her future with Machine Gun Kelly remains to be seen. The actress also has a few projects in the works, so keep an eye on the schedule of 2023 new movie releases to see what’s hitting theaters soon.
