Brian Austin Green's Dating History: From Megan Fox to Vanessa Marcil

Somewhat of a pattern. Brian Austin Green has a tendency to fall for his costars, as evidenced by his relationships with several of his Beverly Hills, 90210 castmates and Megan Fox. The actor got romantic with Tori Spelling, Tiffani Thiessen and Vanessa Marcil while starring on the teen drama from 1990 to 2000. He later moved on to Fox, whom he met on the set of Hope & Faith. Green had serious relationships with Marcil — the mother of his son Kassius — and the Transformers star, with whom he shares sons Noah, Bodhi and Journey. The Anger Management alum got real in August 2019 about how his love story with Fox began. “She was really young,” he recalled during an episode of Barstool Sports’ “KFC Radio” podcast. “And I was like, ‘This isn’t this. This can’t f—king happen. This isn’t going to happen, no way.’ And so I left and she was just really persistent — and thank God.” [jwplayer sGFqE1Nz] Green noted that he wanted to “play the field for a little while” after just ending another relationship. However, when the actress suggested that she would date other people, he figured out his true feelings. “That’s when I realized. I was like, ‘F—k, I must be really into this situation … the thought of that kills me,’” he recounted. The Desperate Housewives alum acknowledged in September 2017 the difficulties that come with commitment. “Marriage is hard. It’s work, I think for anyone,” he explained on his “…With Brian Austin Green” podcast. “I think when you get to the point like we have, where you have kids and you’ve been married for a while and [Megan and I have] been together for a long time, it’s — you just take it day by day.” Meanwhile, Green finally cleared up his past with his 90210 costars during an August 2019 appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen. He claimed that he “got laid” the most of anyone in the cast and went on to reveal that he had a fling with Spelling and dated Thiessen. On the other hand, he confirmed that he never hooked up with Jennie Garth, Shannen Doherty or Gabrielle Carteris. Scroll down to revisit Green’s dating history through the years.

Tori Spelling

The Smallville alum confessed in 2019 that he had “a romantic relationship” with his costar. “We hooked up. We did,” he noted on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen. “We were young, and so, that’s what young people do.” The two were an item from 1990 to 1991.

Tiffani Thiessen

Elsewhere in his Watch What Happens Live appearance, Green detailed his romance with the Saved by the Bell alum, which took place from 1992 to 1995. “I didn’t really ask her on a date, and then we dated,” he said. “But I always sort of played the like … I wait until somebody comes to me because I don’t deal with rejection very well.”

Vanessa Marcil

The Knots Landing alum dated Marcil from 1999 to 2003, after she joined Beverly Hills, 90210. The couple welcomed son Kassius in March 2002.

The Las Vegas alum lashed out at Green via Instagram in November 2018, claiming at the time that she had been in a custody battle with him since 2006. She also alleged that he and Fox “completely cut” Kassius out of their lives.

The Freddie alum revealed in July 2019 that he and his eldest son had reconciled. “We all are grateful that they are coming back together,” Marcil posted on Instagram. “Here is to love and forgiveness for all of us on this planet. #LoveWins.”

Megan Fox

Green and Fox began dating in 2004 and got engaged in November 2006. The pair briefly broke up in February 2009 before marrying in June 2010. Us Weekly exclusively reported in August 2015 that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles star separated from the Wedding Band alum, but they were officially back together by June 2016. Though she filed for divorce in August 2015, she requested to dismiss the case in August 2019.

The Happy Endings alum later confirmed in May 2020 that he and Fox split again at the end of 2019.

In the midst of their relationship ups and downs, they welcomed son Noah in September 2012, son Bodhi in February 2014 and son Journey in August 2016.
