July 2020: Couple speaks out for the first time
After Fox learned that Kelly had been cast opposite her in Randall Emmett’s thriller, “she felt something was going to happen to me during that meeting, but I wasn’t sure what yet.”
In a joint interview, Kelly said he would stand outside his trailer hoping to “catch a glimpse of eye contact” with Fox. “She would have to get out of her car. There were five steps between the car and the trailer. And I just sat there hoping.”
Fox considered Kelly her “twin soul,” which she said means more than the term “soulmate.”
“The second I was in a room with him and said hello to him and looked into his eyes, I knew right away that he was what I call a twin flame,” she said. “Rather than a soulmate, a twin flame is actually where a soul has ascended to a level high enough that it can be split into two different bodies at the same time. So we’re basically two halves of the same soul, I guess. And that I said to him almost immediately, because I felt it immediately.”

In a joint interview for British GQ Style, the couple revealed that they had met at a party in Los Angeles years before the film, but had never seen each other’s faces.
“I don’t remember your face… And I certainly would have remembered his face,” Fox said. “I remember this tall, blonde, ghostly creature, and I looked up and thought, ‘You smell like weed.’ He looked down at me and said, “I’m weed.” Then, I swear to God, he disappeared like a ninja in a smoke bomb.”
Fox said she believes they “weren’t allowed to see each other yet.”
“We weren’t supposed to run into each other that night, so our souls, our spirit guides, lured us away from each other, because you literally had no face, like that thing from Ghostly away. It’s hard to see his face in general, but actually he had no face that night,” Fox recalled before turning to Kelly: “Thank God, [because] What torture it would have been to know you were there and I couldn’t reach you. It was better that I didn’t know.”
Fox also spoke about their “very intense relationship.”
“Our souls chose this to absolutely have to face our shadow selves; to face things about ourselves that we didn’t want to know, that we tried to push away,” she said.
Kelly added that they will “go to hell with each other” and described their relationship as “ecstasy and pain”.
“I don’t want people to think that everything is perfect with us. I didn’t say for nothing that this was the darkest fairytale. God help you if you had met us last Saturday,” he concluded.
