There are thousands of actors and actresses in the world, and to make a name for oneself among all of them is something to be appreciated for.
Brian Austin Green is also one of those hard workers who have made a considerable, if not huge, impact on the industry with his acting skills.
He began doing all this back in the middle 80s, but it took him about 4 to 5 years to actually have a breakthrough in his acting career.
Did you know that the “Austin” in his name was added to make his name different than another American actor, Brian Lane Green (Brian Green)?
Among his very first film projects were “The Canterville Ghost,” in which he played the role of Willie, and “Baby M,” in which he was Ryan Whitehead.
Not only is his professional life an interesting topic, but also his personal. He has married only once so far, and that marriage lasted for about 11 years.
In this article, I will be looking at the life (personal+professional), bio, net worth, relationships, and career of Brian Austin Green.

Latest Controversies
His relationship with his ex-wife Megan Fox is the latest and most famous controversy he’s been a part of.
Their marriage – which lasted for around 11 years – saw many roller coaster rides. The first controversy was their ages at the time of their marriage.
At the time of their marriage, Megan Fox was 18 years old, while Brian Austin Green was 30. There was a 12-year age difference between them.
Megan says that Brian Austin Green considered this age difference to be a great deal. He was reluctant to date someone 12 years younger than him.
But Megan Fox talked him into it and convinced him that she wasn’t an 18-year-old kid and had so much to offer. Brian Austin agreed.
They exchanged their engagement rings in 2006 and thus began the roller coaster ride.
Only three years later, in February 2009, they called off their engagement for some unknown reasons.
In the same year (2009), a group named “The Bling Ring” attacked Megan’s residence and stole Megan’s expensive designer clothes.
The next year, in 2010, they exchanged their engagement rings again, and they tied the knot with each other the same year in Hawaii.
Out of his five kids, Brian Austin Green has three kids with Megan Fox; all three of them were born after a two-year break from each other’s birth.
As their first kid was born in 2012, the second in 2014, and the third one in 2016. Despite having a good life and three beautiful kids (apparently), things didn’t work out between them.
In August 2015, Megan approached the court and requested a divorce from Brian Austin Green. They got separated some days later.
Keep in mind that their divorce wasn’t finalized until then; they just got separated from each other.
A year later, in 2016, they came closer once again and talked things through. They got back again.
Three years later, in 2019, Megan took back the divorce plea. Then again, one year later, in 2020, it was announced that they aren’t living with each other now.
Megan went to court once again and requested a divorce in 2020, and this time, the divorce was finalized in 2021.
See? You would’ve gotten confused just by reading this scenario. Imagine how it would’ve been for Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green.
