MEGAN Fox might be ready to let go of her wedding ring from estranged husband Brian Austin Green, but she’s not ready to let go of his name

She was spotted without her jewelry during a social media video on Wednesday, but told viewers during the same clip that Green is her “family name.”

Rumors had been swirling for weeks that Megan, 34, and her husband of 10 years had separated, after they were both seen without their rings and the actress was seen getting cozy with Machine Gun Kelly.

Brian, who shares three children with Megan, confirmed the split speculation on his podcast on Monday, saying their “paths have started going in separate ways.”

His ex is sending mixed signals about the situation, though, as she went ringless for an Instagram Live on Wednesday but also said her “family name” is still Green.

She was chatting with father of three Colin Wayne, a veteran and former fitness model, who is the founder of Redline Steel, a customized decor manufacturing company.

The two have partnered to “create a Memorial Piece and plan to donate over $2M in product for the month of May to honor those that made the ultimate sacrifice.”

During the chat, the Transformers actress held up one of the pieces she’d received from the company, a steel American flag, and put her bare left hand on full display.

This lined up with her recent time spent with Machine Gun Kelly, and her sexy role in his new music video, and Brian’s mentions of the two taking time apart.

The confusion arrived a little later when she brought up her last name, which she took after she married the Beverly Hills, 90210 actor in 2010.

She held up a steel sign molded with the name Green on it, saying: ”Well, I got one that has my family crest on it. It's a Tree of Life with the family name on it ... I have some with the kids' names too.”

This comes after Brian said on his podcast that the two “decided to separate” after growing apart while Megan was off filming for five weeks.

A source told People that Megan has now been enjoying MGK’s company.

The insider said: ”They have been spending time together at Megan's house in the past few weeks. They seem to have fun and look happy together.

“Megan only sees him when the kids are with Brian.”

Another source told the outlet that the 46-year-old actor is doing “okay” since the split, though it has been “tough for him.”

The insider added: “Brian has no plans to file for divorce. He isn't ready to date either. It seems he is hoping that he and Megan once again can work things out.

“He is giving her space and letting her do her thing. He wants her to be happy. He thinks she is a great mom and is not at all bitter that she is dating."
