Brian Austin Green is sharing some insight into his previous marriage to Megan Fox and how it has changed the way he handles relationships.
The 53-year-old Beverly Hills, 90210 actor appeared on the I Do, Part 2 podcast for its Sunday (July 12) episode and admitted he “led with physical attraction” in his relationship with Megan, 40. He’s currently engaged to former Dancing with the Stars professional Sharna Burgess.
“Until Sharna, my ex and I were together for almost 15 years. We were married for almost 10 years and I led with physical attraction,” he shared.
Brian added that he’d “be physically attracted to somebody and then sort of build a relationship around that.”
He and the Jennifer’s Body star have three children together, Noah, 13, Bodhi, 12, and Journey, 9. Brian also shares Kassius, 21, with ex Vanessa Marcil and Zane, 4, with Sharna.
Brian reflected on his past relationships, saying, “I knew that I didn’t want to repeat things that I had done. So I went through all sorts of therapy and all sorts of things to really figure out what it was that I brought into a relationship that was just toxic and wasn’t good and wasn’t helping the relationship at all.”
He also opened up about the differences in his current relationship with his fiancée, who he became friends with first.
Brian said they started “from a place of genuine connection,” so it made it easier not to stress about “whether they are truly into you or not.”
He continued, “because you guys are already speaking to each other in a very transparent way. Sharna and I talked about our best qualities and our worst qualities together. We sort of put it all out on the table.”
“Your approach to a relationship is the best way to know if it’s just a purely physical connection,” he shared. “That’s only going to last for so long that you’re going to get to a point where you go, ‘I can’t stand that other person. So they’re not hot to me anymore.’”
Earlier this year, Brian revealed the humorous truth behind his name!
