In February, rumours that the pair had split began to swirl when Fox deleted all photos of Kelly off of her Instagram, and shared a photo of herself with a poster that read "when you can't walk away" behind her. She also captioned the since-deleted post, "You can taste the dishonesty / it's all over your breath" — a line from Beyoncé's "Lemonade," which is about JAY-Z's infidelity.
Fox later deleted her account, but returned to Instagram to confirm that there had been "no third party interference in this relationship of any kind," putting rumours that cheating had been involved to rest. At the time, a source told People that the pair had got into a fight during the weekend of the Super Bowl, and Fox was "very upset" with MGK. "They haven't officially called off the engagement, but Megan took her ring off," the source said. In April, another source told Us Weekly that they had "stalled wedding planning to work on their issues."
However, the pair were spotted holidaying in Hawaii that same month and were seen out and about in the months afterwards, making it clear that they were still trying to work things out.
