Megan Fox has never been one to let an outlandish rumor slide, but when it comes to her kids, this celebrity mom really isn’t holding back. Megan took to Instagram to shut down claims that she “forces” her children to dress in girls’ clothing after hateful tweets started circulating about her family over the weekend.
It all started with a tweet from Robby Starbuck.
These are Megan Fox’s sons. We used to live in the same gated community and our kids played at the park. I saw 2 of them have a full on breakdown saying they were forced by their mom to wear girls clothes as their nanny tried to console them. It’s pure child abuse. Pray for them. pic.twitter.com/k3ULKG7fFm — Robby Starbuck (@robbystarbuck) June 8, 2023
Last week, the politician and former director tweeted a paparazzi photo of Megan with her children — Noah, 10, Bodhi, 9, and Journey, 6 — and insinuated their mother was forcing them to dress a certain way.
“We used to live in the same gated community and our kids played at the park. I saw 2 of them have a full on breakdown saying they were forced by their mom to wear girls clothes as their nanny tried to console them. It’s pure child abuse. Pray for them,” he wrote.
Now, Megan is firing back.

Megan shared a screenshot of Robby’s tweet on her Instagram account, accusing him of being a “clout chaser.”
“Irregardless of how desperate you may become at any given time to acquire wealth, power, success, or fame — never use children as leverage or social currency. Especially under malevolent and erroneous pretense,” she wrote. “Exploiting my child’s gender identity to gain attention in your political campaign has put you on the wrong side of the universe.”
She emphasized that he doesn’t want to mess with her.

“I have been burned at the stake by insecure, narcissistic, impotent little men like you many times and yet I’m still here. You f—ed with the wrong witch,” she added.
Of course, Robby already had a comeback for that one ready, tweeting , “Good news guys, no sign of witches eating animal carcasses in my yard last night!”
Megan has opened up about her children’s gender identities before.

In a 2022 interview with Glamour , Megan spoke about her oldest child , Noah, who she shares with ex Brian Austin Green, and the fact that he started wearing dresses around the time he was 2.
Still, Robby hasn’t let up.
Megan Fox gave this interview in May that says she knew her oldest son didn’t want to subscribe to gender stereotypes from the time he was IN THE WOMB. She also admits she‘a raising all 3 boys gender neutral. Does she really think anyone believes she didn’t push this on them? pic.twitter.com/VvMYpaHrmb — Robby Starbuck (@robbystarbuck) June 12, 2023
He continued to tweet about Megan and her sons through the weekend and into Monday, so it wouldn’t be surprising if she ends up having another message to send him soon.
Speculating about anyone’s children — famous or not — isn’t something anyone should be doing. Megan’s children deserve more respect than this.
