Machine Gun Kelly is navigating a period of profound personal reflection, balancing the forthcoming birth of his child with ex-fiancée Megan Fox and the recent loss of his close friend, Luke “The Dingo” Trembath. Trembath, a celebrated Australian snowboarder and entertainer, passed away at the age of 38.

In a heartfelt Instagram tribute, Machine Gun Kelly, born Colson Baker, expressed his deep sorrow, writing, “I’ve lost a lot of friends, but I’ve never lost a brother.”

He reflected on Trembath’s vibrant personality and the profound impact he had on those around him.

The timing of this loss is particularly poignant for Machine Gun Kelly, as he prepares to welcome a new addition to his family. He described the upcoming birth as “bittersweet,” acknowledging the emotional weight of Trembath’s absence during this significant life event.

Trembath’s influence extended beyond snowboarding; he co-founded Grenade Gloves and gained recognition through the Fuel TV series “The Adventures of Danny and the Dingo.” His contributions to the sport and his charismatic presence left an indelible mark on friends, colleagues, and fans alike.
