The couple - who met on the set of their movie 'Midnight in the Switchgrass' - are smitten with one another but the 31-year-old musician insisted things aren't "perfect" between them and they have a lot of ups and downs.
He said: “It should be light, but also we go to hell with each other. It’s ecstasy and agony for sure… I don’t want people to think anything’s perfect with us. I didn’t say it was the darkest fairytale for no reason.”
While Megan - who has three sons with ex-husband Brian Austin Green - was "open" to finding love before she met MGK, she wasn't expecting to connect with her "own soul's reflection" in the way she has.
She gushed in a joint interview with GQ Style magazine: "“[I was] definitely open [to] love, but I did not anticipate walking right into my soulmate like that.

The 'Bloody Valentine' hitmaker - whose real name is Colson Baker - had never fallen in love until he got with Megan and had never even seen a successful relationship.
Asked if he'd been in love before, he said: “No, no, no. It’s, like, because you’ve been around the world and experienced so much s***, you think you know everything. And then you are in the arms of your destiny and realise ‘I don’t know s*** yet’. That’s when the adventure starts, right?
“I came from broken homes and I watched love never work. Then I grew up where in pop culture they don’t even make romantic movies any more. It hurts my soul that I wasted 30 years of my life not having any desire.”
