Megan Fox’s Ex-Husband Thinks She’d Be ‘Flattered’ by Chelsea’s Viral Love Is Blind Comparison

Megan Fox still hasn’t weighed in on Love Is Blind season 6, but her ex-husband just did.

Love Is Blind contestant Chelsea Blackwell has been getting dragged online since Netflix started dropping the first batch of episodes on February 14—and it all started in the pods when the 31-year-old flight attendant told love interest Jimmy Presnell that she has been told by many people that she looks like “MGK’s wife” Megan Fox.

“It’s just because I have dark hair and blue eyes. But I don’t see it, so don’t get excited,” she told him, but that didn’t stop Jimmy from claiming “she definitely lied” after seeing her for the first time.

Brian Austin Green, who was married to Fox from 2010 to2022, has a different perspective than Jimmy. “I think it’s tough. I think the reality is people say that all the time,” he told TMZ on March 1. “I run into people all the time that say I look like Owen Wilson. You have those people, so she may have gotten that from a lot of people. Who knows. On certain days when her hair was done a certain, eye makeup was done a certain way…. I mean, you live and learn.”

While he said it was “probably not the best thing to say on a show called Love Is Blind,” he does believe people should “cut her some slack.”

For what it’s worth, Blackwell recently told Glamour that she wasn’t the only one discussing looks in the pods. “That doesn’t make it okay, by any means,” she quickly added. “It’s not the point of the experiment. That’s completely the opposite of it. Obviously, I’ve learned my lesson. I hope that for future people who go on Love Is Blind, they make it official rule to not even try to explain that or have those conversations.”

When told that Chelsea apologized to Fox, Green said she “shouldn’t have to do that” and that his ex-wife “would be flattered.” And while he wouldn’t share his personal opinion on the comparison, he did say "Megan is a one-of-a-kind beauty.”

“It’s why a lot of people say she’s possibly the most beautiful woman in the world,” he continued. “She has a very incredible look to her, so that’s a tough comparison I think for anyone to make.” You can watch the video here.

Frankly, it feels like time to put this discourse to bed, but that probably won’t happen until we hear from Megan Fox herself.
