Brian Austin Green is raving about Megan Fox after his time with co-star Vanessa Marcil.
For the unversed, the Beverly Hills, 90210 alum started dating Marcil in the late ‘90s, welcomed their son in 2002 and parted ways in 2003. They both worked together on the later seasons of 90210.
On the Monday, May 5 episode of his podcast Oldish, the 51-year-old American actor reflected on his past and said Fox was “a breath of fresh air, coming out of “what felt like Vietnam to me.”
Green and Fox started dating in 2004, tied the knot in 201, welcomed three sons, and called it quits in 2021.
Talking about his past relationships, he said, “The relationship that I had with Vanessa, it was very toxic. It wasn’t a loving, caring relationship.”
He went on to open up about his struggle with women, saying, “My mom was, almost to the point of smothering, like she just loved me so much. You see her with the kids now.”
“To a fault sometimes, just everything was about me. And then with Vanessa, it was not that at all, but it was masked in this is a relationship where that absolutely exists, so you start thinking like Oh, it’s just kind of a new version, like, Oh she loves me, but this is her way of loving me,” Green added.
“She’s trying to help me and fix me and get me through things. And then after two years or so, you’re kind of looking at yourself in the mirror, and you’re like, Who am I at this point? There’s not one piece of me that’s left. My relationship with everyone around me has changed,” the Don’t Blink star noted.
It is pertinent to mention that Green is currently in a relationship with Sharna Burgess, whom he danced with on Dancing with the Stars in 2021, and they share a son, Zane Walker, who was born in June 2022.
