Brian Austin Green called his ex-wife Megan Fox a ‘one-of-a-kind beauty’ after reality star Chelsea Blackwell revealed being previously compared to her.
The 50-year-old actor told TMZ on Monday that was probably wasn’t the best decision for Love Is Blind contestant Chelsea, 31, to compare herself to Megan, 37.
‘It seems like you’re opening yourself up to criticism,’ said Brian, who was married to Megan from 2010 to 2021.
Brian was asked if he thought that Chelse looked like Megan and he noted that Chelsea has blue eyes and brown hair.
‘Megan is a very one-of-a-kind beauty. It’s why a lot of people say she’s possibly the most beautiful woman in the world,’ Brian said. ‘She has a very incredible look to her.’
Chelsea has been the subject of cruel trolling since revealing others made the comparison and Brian said critics should give her a break.
Brian said that he believed Megan would not care about the comparisons.
‘I think Megan would be flattered,’ Brian said.
Chelsea last month offered her mea culpas to Megan.
‘I did reach out to her, and I was like, ‘I’m so sorry I did this to you,” the flight attendant told Entertainment Tonight. ‘I’m just waiting for Megan to respond.’
The brouhaha began when Chelsea and her now fiancé Jimmy Presnell were still in the pods on the Netflix dating show where lonely singles get engaged to people they’ve never seen before.
Chelsea had previously boasted about her resemblance to Megan, claiming that people have told her that she looks just like the actress and Sєx symbol.
‘She definitely lied to me on some, uh, on how she looked,’ he chuckled. ‘Chelsea told me she looked like Megan Fox.’
Despite his initial surprise, the software salesman admitted that he still found his future wife beautiful and had no problem with her appearance.
‘At the end of the day it doesn’t really matter,’ he said. ‘I’m very attracted to her – I can work with that.’
He also complimented her in person, gushing that she was ‘gorgeous’ when they first met.
During their time in the pods – where contestants date through a wall without seeing one another – Chelsea said that pᴀssengers on her flights often compared her Megan.
Chelsea followed up the comparison by noting that she didn’t necessarily agree that she looks like the actress.
She did, however, acknowledge that what the two have in common is dark hair and blue eyes.
Megan and Brian have sons Noah, 11, Bodhi, 10, and seven-year-old Journey together.
Brian also has 20-month-old son Zane with his fiancée Sharna Burgess, 36.
Pro dancer Sharna and Brian were partners on season 30 of Dancing With The Stars.
