Megan Fox's mom, Gloria Darlene Fox, has been working in real estate for many years. However, she once had to work multiple jobs to feed her family with her former husband. She later remarried and moved to Florida with her family.

Megan Fox is undoubtedly a hardworking actress, a trait she got from her mother, Gloria Darlene Fox, who worked tirelessly to make ends meet.

Gloria raised her two daughters in Tennessee with her then-husband, a parole officer. At that time, they only had little to bring to the table, resulting in Gloria's long hours working several jobs.

"My dad used to hunt ducks, and my mom would put them in the pot," Megan recalled. "We lived really modestly. We had very little money."

Gloria Darlene Fox Raised Her Kids in a Strict Household after Divorcing Their Father

Gloria's daughter was still young when she divorced her husband. She moved to Florida with her kids and tied the knot with another man.

Fortunately, Gloria's divorce did not traumatize her daughter. The "Jennifer's Body" star had a relatively happy childhood despite having strict parents. She did not enjoy school, and her friends were not allowed to come over. Similarly, she was not allowed to visit her friends' homes.

Like her parents, Megan is also divorced from her first husband, Brian Austin Green. The pair have two sons together and co-parent to raise them.

Gloria Darlene Fox Never Believed Her Daughter Would Make It as an Actress

Although Gloria supported her daughter's pursuit to become an actress, she did not think that her daughter would find profound success in the entertainment industry. She would go with Megan to auditions in Los Angeles at age 15 and parted ways with her daughter at 18.

According to her LinkedIn profile, Gloria has had ten years of Association Management experience and has held a real estate license for 20 years.

At that time, Gloria returned to Florida while the aspiring star remained in New York to film "Hope & Faith." As a budding actress, the "Transformers" star went the extra mile to make herself known. However, she never dyed her hair blonde, as Gloria requested. Megan said:

"My mom was right: being brunette was the one thing that made me memorable. I didn't look like anybody else. So I clung to that."

Gloria Darlene Fox Is Currently in the Real Estate Industry

Currently, Gloria works as a Real Estate Sales Associate at eXp Realty. She also worked the same job at Keller Williams Atlantic Partners St. Augustine and Harborview Realty.

She was also employed at Select Real Estate as a Real Estate agent and at Riverside Club Condominium Association as a General manager. According to her LinkedIn profile, Gloria has had ten years of Association Management experience and has held a real estate license for 20 years.

Although her daughter is a famous Hollywood star, Gloria prefers living a quiet life and is rarely seen in the spotlight. However, she was spotted having lunch with Megan in Malibu in 2017.

The mother-daughter duo dressed casually in white tops and jeans. They also wore matching furry slides as they looked happy in each other's company. Despite having different pursuits in life, the younger Fox remains close to her mom. Gloria's other daughter is also successful in the medical field.

Megan Fox will soon be walking down the aisle to marry her fiance, Machine Gun Kelly. The pair have been dating since 2020 and have walked the red carpet together several times. After less than two years together, the rapper proposed to Megan with a custom engagement ring.
