Rumors about Dakota Johnson and Machine Gun Kelly’s alleged romance are drawing fresh attention online. But this time after a tabloid report made intimate claims about the pair’s chemistry.
Keep reading to know more.
An unnamed source quoted by the Daily Mail claimed that the Fifty Shades of Grey actress had described her connection with musician, Machine Gun Kelly, whose real name is Colson Baker, as unusually intense.
The report quickly sparked a wave of reactions, with some social media users criticizing the alleged details and others questioning why private claims about the stars’ sex lives were being circulated at all.
Neither Johnson nor MGK has publicly confirmed that they are in a romantic relationship, and the intimate claims remain attributed to an unnamed source.
An Insider’s Claims About Their Chemistry
According to the Daily Mail source, Johnson had spoken to friends about the pair’s alleged chemistry.
“She has told friends that they have great sexual chemistry and it’s the best sex she has ever had; she calls it ‘fireworks,’” the insider claimed.
The source also alleged that Dakota Johnson had considered their astrological signs — she is a Libra, while MGK is a Taurus — as part of what she believed made their connection feel meaningful.
The report further claimed that Johnson was attracted to MGK’s appearance and tattoos. Those comments, too, came from the unnamed source and have not been confirmed by either star.
The insider also suggested that the relationship could be growing more serious, alleging that the two had talked about having children and building a future together.
“They have agreed they would have the most beautiful babies, and she wants kids,” the source claimed, adding that they believed the pair wanted a family.
The same source described their reported relationship as having developed from a friendship, saying they had gotten to know each other before becoming romantically involved.
Social Media Users React To The Private Claims
Some users objected to the intimate details being shared.
“Why does anyone need to know this??” one commenter asked.
Speculation about Johnson and MGK reportedly gathered momentum after the two were said to have connected at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding in New York in July.
A source quoted by People claimed that the pair had met previously but became closer at the event. The insider said they began as friends, exchanged messages and eventually spent more time together.
“They haven’t put a label on their relationship yet; they are just seeing where spending time together will take them,” the source told the outlet.
Johnson and MGK have reportedly been spotted together on several occasions, including an outing in Los Angeles after MGK finished recording at a music studio.
Even so, public sightings and anonymous accounts do not establish the nature or status of their relationship.
Reports Say MGK Has Met Johnson’s Mother
The Daily Mail also quoted a source claiming that MGK had met Johnson’s mother, actress Melanie Griffith, and had made a positive impression.
“Melanie has met him and likes him because when he wants to be charming, he absolutely is, and he charmed Melanie,” the insider alleged.
The source also suggested that MGK appreciated Johnson’s closeness with her family, including her father, actor Don Johnson, and her siblings.
It is not clear whether Johnson has met MGK’s children. The musician has a daughter, Casie, with former partner Emma Cannon, and a younger daughter, Saga, with actress Megan Fox.
MGK and Fox, who had an on-and-off relationship, separated romantically before their daughter was born and have been navigating co-parenting.
Both Stars Have Had High-Profile Relationships
Before the latest rumors, Johnson was linked to singer Role Model, whose real name is Tucker Pillsbury. A source reportedly confirmed in August that they had split after ending their relationship earlier.
Johnson was also in a long-running, on-and-off relationship with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin. They were reportedly together from 2017 until 2025 and were said to have been engaged for several years.
Johnson has joked about her history of dating musicians. While guest-hosting Saturday Night Live, she referred to “two very public, very lame breakups with two very awesome musicians” and quipped that she was “looking for a third.”
MGK was previously engaged to Megan Fox, and their relationship attracted extensive public attention before they separated and focused on raising their daughter.
The Rumors Have Left Some Fans Surprised
While some commenters focused on the alleged intimate details, others seemed simply caught off guard by the possibility of Johnson and MGK becoming a couple.
“Does everyone in the “celebrity” bubble just swap out partners ever couple of years? How gross 🤢” one person wrote, while another added, “I didn’t even know they were dating 😂😂😂”
For now, the reported romance remains unconfirmed by the stars themselves. Much of the story rests on anonymous sources and online speculation, making it worth separating what has been publicly established from what others claim to know about their private lives.
