Source claims Dakota Johnson’s friends see Machine Gun Kelly as a “childish bad boy”
Dakota Johnson, 36, reportedly grew close to MGK, whose real name is Colson Baker, after meeting him at Taylor Swift’s wedding in July. The source said Johnson finds his confidence and rebellious personality attractive. However, friends reportedly wonder whether his rock-star lifestyle matches her hopes for a settled family life.
“They are essentially telling her he is a childish bad boy,” OK! claimed.
The source stressed that nobody was questioning the sincerity of their connection. Instead, friends reportedly want Johnson to look beyond their chemistry and consider whether they share similar ambitions.
Johnson has previously spoken openly about wanting children. In a recent interview with Vogue, she said, “I really do,” when discussing motherhood. She also acknowledged that life had unfolded differently than she once expected.
Meanwhile, MGK has a daughter with his former partner, Megan Fox. His friends’ concerns reportedly center on whether he wants marriage and a more conventional family life. The insider suggested that his independent personality might clash with Johnson’s current priorities.
“Neither approach is wrong, but they could eventually discover they’re heading toward completely different destinations,” the source said.
Johnson previously dated Coldplay frontman Chris Martin for approximately eight years. The pair reportedly became engaged before ending their relationship. She later dated musician Role Model, whose real name is Tucker Pillsbury, before that romance ended.
According to the insider, Johnson’s friends want her to enjoy the relationship without confusing excitement with lasting compatibility. They reportedly believe serious conversations about children, marriage, and their future will reveal whether the pair want the same things.
For now, the relationship appears to remain in its early stages, with the source saying they are enjoying each other’s company. However, the insider believes their long-term intentions will ultimately determine their future.
Neither Johnson nor MGK has publicly confirmed the relationship details described in the report. Therefore, the claims about their romance and friends’ concerns remain attributed to unnamed sources.
