There's more than meets the eye when it comes to Megan Fox's appearance.
The SurpassingTransformers actress recently opened up about her experience with body dysmorphia and the challenges of embracing the skin she's in.
"I have body dysmorphia—I don't ever see myself the way other people see me," Megan said in a video for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2023 issue. "There's never a point in my life where I loved my body, never, ever."
The mom of three—who is one of the magazine's cover stars, alongside Martha Stewart, Kim Petras and more—explained that she's always been cognizant of her body, even at a young age.
"When I was little, that was an obsession I had of but I should look this way," the 36-year-old recalled. "And why I had an awareness of my body that young I'm not sure. The journey of loving myself is going to be never-ending."
Part of that journey is being candid about how she's feeling.
"We may look at somebody and think, 'That person's so beautiful. Their life must be so easy,'" she previously said in a joint interview with Machine Gun Kelly for British GQ Style's autumn/winter 2021 issue. "They most likely don't feel that way about themselves."
She noted, "I have a lot of deep insecurities."
Megan's self-love journey has also helped the rapper work through his personal challenges.
"She's helped me realize that you can't bury your trauma," MGK shared in their joint interview. "No one knows anything about me. They don't know how deep that rabbit hole goes with my childhood and with everything that my body has stored in itself."
