“Any suggestion that she has ever acted in an unprofessional manner or stepped out of her relationship are untrue,” the statement continued, “It’s disrespectful to her as a female artist and poor journalism and social commentary to be reporting anything else.”

Sophie joined Machine Gun Kelly's band last year and went on the road as part of the ‘Mainstream Sellout Tour’ in May 2022.

The ‘Emo Girl’ singer – whose given name is Colson Baker – and Megan seemingly split at the weekend, the Transformers hinted at infidelity when she shared an Instagram post that included a video of her burning photos and an envelope in a fire.
