Journey River Green Wiki: When Is His Birthday?

He was born on August 4th, 2016 , in Los Angeles, California. He arrived in the world at 11 p.m. local time. As of now, he is five-year-old and will turn six.

The third bundle of joy between Brian Austin and Megan Fox, Journey belongs to the Caucasian ethnicity and has American nationality. Moreover, he has Scottish ancestry.

His father Brian is Van Nuys, California native while his mother Megan is from Tennessee.

Journey River Green Brothers

The eldest child between Megan and Brian, Noah Shannon Green , was born on September 27th, 2012 . The second-born, Bodhi Ransom Green came into this world on February 12th, 2014 . All three Green siblings were born in Los Angeles. After Journey’s arrival, the Green family became complete.

During the course of Brian and Megan’s relationship, both of them were deemed the best parents in Hollywood. They used to spend a lot of time with their kids. From going out and about a couple of times a week to spending quality time together regardless of their busy schedule, the lovebirds made sure their boys felt loved up.

Even after the couple’s divorce, they have made sure to take utmost care of their children. All three of them usually appears on their parents’ respective Instagram account, though Megan rarely shares photos of them.

Megan Fox Has Fixed Some Rules For Her Children

There are some strict family rules made by the actress Fox for her children. She doesn’t allow her kids to use smartphones or television rather prefers to let them go to enjoy outdoor activities.

Besides, at present, all of Megan’s children including Journey are at a vegan-friendly school near their house in Los Angeles. They love animals and also protect them.

Journey River’s Parents Had a Different Way of Parenting

As we mentioned above, Megan and Brian’s had quite a unique way when comes to parenting. During an appearance in Ever After with Jaleel White, Brian openly talked about parenting his three kids with Megan.

The former flames used a basketball-like analogy while taking care of the boys. Brian said,

“My wife and I, we got really good at man-to-man. Then you have three [kids] and all of a sudden you have to play zone. ‘OK, I’ll cover [this] half of the room, you cover that half.’ Then if a kid steps in our zone, then we’ve got it covered.”

Eventually, Brian got used to the technique which made him comfier with the boys. He further added,

“You get used to that, and then you start playing zone by yourself. You start going, ‘Yeah, I can do this.”

The podcast was released just a couple of months before Megan filed for divorce, which is quite ironic.

Fans Have Accused Megan Fox of Being An Absentee Mother

Like many separated couples who spend time with their kids in their own time, Brian and Megan too did the same. It’s one thing to not share pictures of your family altogether, but it is a completely different thing when you start getting private about such stuff right after separation.

Apparently, ever since their split Brian has been constantly sharing pics with the boys, however, Megan has rarely added pictures of her children on social media.

Now we are sure you can guess what happened after she stopped adding pictures of her offspring, while her ex-husband has been active in that case. Yes, people started calling out Megan for being an absentee mom.

While Austin rarely leaves any occasion to share pictures of his sons, Fox is a different story. For instance, back during the 2020 Halloween Brian uploaded a photo of himself with Journey in the background as they wore costumes. Now Megan hasn’t shared a single photo with her kids on this big occasion and after seeing Brian’s posts, fans started speculating Megan isn’t as close to her kids as their father.

Upon reading all the negative comments, Megan took to her Instagram and lashed out at her ex-hubby for ‘feeding’ the rumor she’s an ‘absent mother.’ She uploaded the same picture with an incredibly negative status and demanded Brian remove the photo. See for yourself!

After the backlash, Brian, surprisingly adhere to Megan’s demand and removed the picture, and re-uploaded it with Journey cropped out from it.

Journey River And His Siblings Had Difficulty Learning In Coronavirus Lockdown

The majority of us all suffered one way or another during the coronavirus pandemic. Likewise, when the world was in a state of lockdown, Journey and his brothers were stuck inside the four walls of their house.

Nevertheless, he saw the situation in a positive way. During an interview with Entertainment Tonight in December 2020, Brian vividly talked about all the challenges that came with taking care of his sons during the lockdown.

While many kids had to learn virtually, Journey, Noah, and Bodhi had difficulty learning that way. This is why their father came up with a unique way to cope with his oldest, Noah’s needs. Brian said,

“We have a pod of six other kids, because our 8-year-old, he just wasn’t into the remote learning at all. Sitting in front of a computer and doing that, that just wasn’t his thing. … I think some kids need the socialization. Like, they really need to be with other kids.”

Well, he really is a doting dad.

Her Mother Megan Is Dating Machine Gun Kelly

Following her split from Journey River Green, Megan is currently dating rapper Machine Gun Kelly. After dating for a while, they even got engaged in early 2022.

Well, talking about Kelly, prior to dating Megan, he was in a relationship with Emma Cannon. From their relationship, they also had a son named Casie Colson Baker .

How Much Is Journey River Green’s Net Worth?

It is evident that Journey’s parents are multi-millionaire. His mother Megan is worth a resounding $8 million while his father Brian has a total fortune of $8 million in 2023.

Megan Fox shares beautiful photo of new baby boy Journey River

Megan Fox welcomed her new son to the world in August, and now she's giving the world a chance to get a glimpse of Journey River Green.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BMCtKppB0Zf

The "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" star posted a photo of herself and the little guy to Instagram Wednesday without comment, but who needs words when her baby's big eyes and sweet expression do all the talking?

Of course, Journey has talked to mom for some time now. Oh, sure, at 12 weeks old, he can't actually speak. But according to Fox, he was in constant communication throughout her pregnancy.

"You don't hear an audible voice, but I feel like you receive messages from the child if you're open to it," the actress told Jimmy Kimmel in June . "For instance, this baby wanted me to live somewhere else, so we're moving to a whole different place in Los Angeles because I feel like that's where this baby wants to be raised."

And that's not all he told her.

"I also feel like this baby is telling me it's kind of like a Wernher von Braun or an Elon Musk — like a super genius," she said.

For now, we know he's definitely super cute.

“People make a mistake of thinking that they’re gonna do things so the separation doesn’t affect the kids and that’s — of course it’s gonna affect the kids,” he explained. “The only choice you have is how it affects the kids.”

“The person that you were with that you’re now separated from, you guys are separated for a reason,” Brian continued, “because you didn’t get along. So, you can’t expect to then get along after the fact in raising your kids.”

And the video is adorable. 🥹 https://t.co/AANGQTGbIM — SheKnows (@SheKnows) April 12, 2024

It’s definitely not easy to navigate, but they seem to be doing well with it. In an interview on the Old-Ish podcast in September, Green said that he and the Transformers star “co-parent really well together.”

“When we need to, we communicate really well, we are open to things, we don’t take things personally,” he continued. “It is my goal, and I think it’s her goal as well, that the kids are in as healthy environment as they can be in.”

Green’s fiancé Sharna Burgess, who he shares 21-month-old son Zane with, also gets along “really well” with Fox. “We are lucky because we have a great relationship,” Burgess said on the podcast. “I think what’s so important is we have made that a priority, for us to be able to interact and have a great time.”

“I think it’s really important when people separate to never ever disparage the other parent or even in a passive aggressive way, make remarks,” Fox previously said on The Drew Barrymore Show . “I don’t let anything in my energy like that when I’m around my kids because if I don’t accept and love their father, I’m rejecting a part of them because he’s a part of who they are always. He’s in their blood. And he’s in their psyche. And they exist because of him. So if I reject him, I reject them.”

She added, “That gives your children the freedom to be happy because they don’t have to carry the burden of a war between parents.”

Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green have been open about their journey to peacefully co-parenting their children . Despite ending their 14-year relationship in May 2020, the two have the utmost respect for each other and the time they share with their children.

Post-divorce, the two have incredibly hectic schedules. The ex-couple shares custody of their three children , Noah Shannon Green, Bodhi Ransom Green, and their youngest Journey River Green. Their busy schedules have made this a bit challenging, but the pair have learned ways to work around them. The couple is incredibly protective of their children, as well, rarely posting pictures of them. With both parents seemingly always working, it begs the question, does their youngest son, Journey, spend more time with his mom Megan Fox or his dad Brian Green?

It seems that Journey River Green spends an equal amount of time with Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green. The parents have tried their best to shield their children from any negativity that could come from the breakup. They also don’t have any resentment against each other.

“Neither one of us did anything to each other,” said Brian during an episode of his podcast. “She’s always been honest with me and I’ve always been honest with her. And I know she will always love me and I know as far as a family, what we have built is really cool and really special. So we decided let’s make sure we don’t lose that. That no matter what we’re always friends with each other and we’re a united front with the kids,” Brian explained.

Brian and his partner Sharna Burgess welcomed a son, Zane, in June 2022. Brian has said that all three of his children with Megan, including Journey, are obsessed with their new baby brother. He shared that Megan has been nothing but supportive, as well, about their expanding family. When he was asked if he thought his newborn gave his ex baby fever, he jokingly responded that his son would give anyone baby fever. “She thought he was the cutest thing. I love that. And she's always asking the kids and about him, like how he's doing,” he said about Megan.

Megan Fox shared that her family was moving after Journey was born because she felt the baby wanted them to move. During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Megan said, “​​I feel like you receive messages from the child if you're open to it. Like for this instance, this baby wanted me to live somewhere else, so we're moving to a whole different place in Los Angeles because I feel like that's where this baby wants to be raised."

RELATED: Fans Upset That Brian Austin Green Adhered To Megan Fox's Demands To Crop His Kids Photos

Megan posted a glimpse of baby Journey on her Instagram a few months after giving birth to him, and has showcased him in pictures with his brothers throughout the years. One of the cutest moments fans have seen with Journey was when he made a surprise appearance in Megan’s interview with the Today Show. She was filming the interview at her home and Journey slyly scooted himself into the shot. It seems he really is a free spirit.

People were confused about who the father of Journey was , originally, as Brian and Megan were supposedly broken up. The two had made up behind closed doors, however, and tried to make things work. Despite their best efforts, the two found themselves happier apart. During an episode of his podcast, Brian explained that the distance between the two actors became “palpable” after Megan returned from a five-week movie shoot.

Since their breakup, Megan has become the face of PDA with her now fiancé Machine Gun Kelly. The two are knowingly obsessed with each other, with Megan even commenting once on Machine Gun Kelly’s Instagram post “kill me or get me pregnant.”

Machine Gun Kelly seemingly acknowledged that the couple had a miscarriage after dedicating a line in his live performance to their “unborn child.” While the couple has never confirmed or denied the rumor, fans were quick to offer sympathies to both the artists.

While Megan and Brian rarely share photos of their sons, the ones they have shared featured the three boys with long hair. Their hairstyles prompted questions about the kids' gender from the public. When Noah was pictured wearing a dress, she received a lot of hate from the public. But rather than changing her parenting style to meet the needs of the public, Megan chose to speak out about the importance of letting children be who they are supposed to be.

"When I became pregnant with Noah, I could feel, through my mother's intuition I suppose, that he was not subscribing to gender stereotypes, so I decided to provide an environment for him early on that would allow him to discover how he wanted to express himself," said Megan in an interview with Glamour UK.

She further explained that she lets her kids choose what they play with, regardless of the “gender” associated with the toy. “If a boy loves princesses and a girl loves baseball, that’s not indicative of their sexuality. It's indicative of their communication and creative expression. We can't limit children by telling them how they should play,” said Megan to Glamour UK.

Megan isn’t the only parent speaking out about raising their children without gender stereotypes. Dax Shepard asked Brian Austin Green if other people’s comments about their children bothered him during an interview, to which Brian confidentiality responded no. Speaking specifically about his son Noah, he said, “I've heard from some people that they don't agree with him wearing dresses. To them I say, I don't care. He's 4 and if he wants to wear it then he wears it.”

He doubled down on the support of his children’s freedom to express themselves, saying, “It's his life, they're not my clothes. I feel like at 4 at 5, that's a time when he should be having fun. He's not harming anyone wearing a dress. So if he wants to wear a dress, good on him”

"Of course it's gonna affect the kids" - Brian Austin Green opens up about co-parenting experience with Megan Fox

B rian Austin Green, known for his roles in Beverly Hills, 90210, and Transformers , recently shed light on his co-parenting journey with ex-wife Megan Fox. In a series of interviews conducted on April 13, at Steel City Comic Con, Green articulated his approach to co-parenting with Fox.

The couple parted ways in 2020 after nearly a decade of marriage, sharing three sons – Noah Shannon, Bodhi Ransom, and Journey River. Speaking exclusively to E! News, Green emphasized the importance of prioritizing their children's well-being.

Green highlighted the inevitability of the separation affecting their children, stating

"People make a mistake of thinking that they're gonna do things so the separation doesn't affect the kids, and that's-of course, it's gonna affect the kids"

This candid revelation offers insights into the actor's commitment to navigating the complexities of post-divorce parenting.

Brian Austin Green shares insights on co-parenting

Green delved deeper into the dynamics of co-parenting, as he elaborated on changes he and Megan Fox experienced raising their kids post their separation. Their kids Noah Shannon is 11 years old, Bodhi Ransom is 10 years old, and Journey River is seven. His current partner is Sharna Burgess , with whom he shares a son, Zane.

During the interview with the E! New,s Brian Austin Green mentioned that one of the major tips is to make sure that everything is centered around the experience of the kids. He further continued that separation does affect the kids and the only choice is to understand how it affects them.

Post the separation, Green focuses on the necessity of accepting the reasons behind the split and emphasizing solely co-parenting . Further in the interview he also emphasized the need to pick your battles as a parent. He remarked:

"So, you can't expect to then get along after the fact in raising your kids. So, you have to decide, ‘OK, it's not about us getting along anymore. It's about us co-parenting, which is a totally different situation."

Brian Austin Green and Megan Fox have been consistently open about their co-parenting association between them. While they don't always agree, she has stated that she tries to avoid negativity for the sake of the children .

During an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show in November 2023, she stated,

"I think it's really important when people separate to never ever disparage the other parent or even in a passive aggressive way, make remarks."

Furthermore, she explained that she does not let anything in her energy when she is with her children, because if she doesn't accept and love their father, it is a rejection of a part of them since he's always a part of who they are.

According to People magazine, in October 2022, Brian Austin Green maintained his and his ex-wife's positive chemistry, characterizing their approach to E! News as going "really well." During the interview, he emphasized that they

"Don't fight over time with the kids... (and) try to alternate holidays between Christmas Day and Christmas Eve."

Megan Fox filed for divorce from Brian Austin Green in 2015, but they reconciled shortly after. Five years later, the actress filed for divorce a second time, and in 2022, they struck an agreement that included joint custody of their children. Green shares another son named Kassius, 22, with his ex, Vanessa Marcil.

Megan Fox opens up about her 9-year-old son wearing dresses

Fox said she doesn't "want the world to have access to this gentle soul."

Megan Fox is opening up about her philosophy when it comes to raising her three children.

Fox, who is mom to Noah, 9, Bodhi, 8, and Journey, 5, told Glamour U.K. in the magazine's April issue she and ex-husband Brian Austin Green have tried to "protect" their kids from social media and bullying.

The actress, 35, said she Green, 48, have "done a really good job and we maintain their innocence in a lot of ways, but I know I can't protect them forever, though I do have a child that suffers."

Fox then spoke about Noah's penchant for wearing dresses, something she said he started doing when he was "about 2." At the time, Fox said she "bought a bunch of books that ... addressed a full spectrum of what this is."

"Some of the books were written by transgender children. Some of the books are just about how you can be a boy and wear a dress; you can express yourself through your clothing however you want," she said.

"And that doesn't even have to have anything to do with your sexuality," she continued. "So from the time they were very young, I've incorporated those things into their daily lives so that nobody feels like they are weird or strange or different."

"So I have a lot of worries about that, because I just wish that humanity was not like this," she added. "Although my kid is so brave and my child is so brave and I know that they've chosen this journey for a reason. It's just hard as a mom."

Why Brian Austin Green Removed Photo Of Son Journey, 4, After Megan Fox Called Him Out

Brian Austin Green ultimately removed the Instagram photo of his and Megan Fox's son, Journey — after the actress scolded her ex for showing their youngest child. Learn why he deleted the post and where the exes stand.

Megan Fox   and  Brian Austin Green  were working very hard at co-parenting before their recent social media spat — which is why the actress, 34, was set off over Brian’s (now deleted) Halloween photo of their youngest son , Journey River , 4. If you’ve been following the drama , you’ll recall when Megan publicly scolded Brian, 47, on Instagram on November 1, and questioned why he wouldn’t crop their son out of the photo. The relatively private exes, who split in May after nearly 10 years of marriage, have strived to keep their children (sons Journey,  Bodhi Ransom , 6, and Noah Shannon , 8) out of the spotlight.

“It’s important to Brian to stay in a good place with Megan, which is why he took it down,” a source close to the ex-couple told HollywoodLife , exclusively. “He wants to be in a good place with her. It took them awhile to get there but they are there.”

The source went on to explain that Megan was surprised to see Brian’s post at the time, because she thought they were on the same page about their family’s privacy. “Megan has always been very strict when it comes to the kids and their privacy. She is not a fan of being photographed, especially her kids. She tries her best to be normal, but she does shield the kids and Brian has always known that about her,” the insider said, explaining that Megan “avoids paparazzi-heavy places because of this when she’s with her kids. She has always been open with Brian about her feelings on the kids and their privacy. They’ve been working hard to get to a good place when it comes to co-parenting especially, so it just made her mad.”

In her comment slamming Brian, Megan also accused the 90210 star of using his Instagram page to portray her as an “absent mother.”

“I know you love your kids. But I don’t know why you can’t stop using them to posture [sic] via Instagram,” she wrote. “You’re so intoxicated with feeding the pervasive narrative that I’m an absent mother, and you are the perennial, eternally dedicated dad of the year,” Megan continued, noting that Brian has their three kids “half of the time.” She added, “Why do you need the internet to echo back to you what should be inexhaustibly evident in the way your children love you?”

Instead of answering his ex in the comments, Brian deleted his post. He then re-shared same snap with Journey cropped out of the photo. A separate source close to Brian told HollywoodLife that the last thing he wants is drama with the mother of his kids.

“Brian quickly took the picture down and cropped it because he isn’t looking to upset Megan, that wasn’t his intention at all,” the insider said, explaining, “He was just sharing a snapshot from his Halloween and he’s bummed that it turned into something negative. Brian has always posted pictures of his kids, so it’s really not something new, but he wanted to be respectful of Megan so he quickly cropped it. The thing he wants is drama over his kids.”

Following the social media situation, Brian took to Instagram to thank his fans for sticking by him. “I wanted to thank everyone who’s come on my page and been supportive of everything. It’s extremely kind and really appreciated,” he said in a November 4 Instagram video.

Noah, Journey and Bodhi Green, Megan Fox' three sons.

Megan Fox is the proud mother of three beautiful children, the 7-year-old Noah, the 5-year old Bodhi, and the 3-year old Journey. She and her partner of 15 years, Real Housewives star and Beverly Hills 90210 alum Brian Austin Green are also raising together the 17-year old Kassius, whom Brian had with ex-girlfriend Vanessa Marcil.

The family led a peaceful, laid-back lifestyle free of scrutiny ⁠— until now. Baffled fans are left wondering: how did Megan Fox's son, Noah, stir up controversy?

Meet Megan Fox's son, Noah. 

Born on Sept. 27, Noah is the oldest of the three kids. Unlike Bodhi and Journey, the young boy has already garnered a good bit of criticism. How so? By wearing exquisitely designed feminine garments — items traditionally worn by girls and young women. 

While the public frenzy is relatively new, Noah's fascination with clothing and fashion is anything but. In a previous interview with Harper's Bazaar , Megan has already noted how much his oldest son appreciates seeing her wear unusual kimonos every morning. Noah might have inherited his mum's love of couture, but his admiration of clothing goes much beyond designer gowns and conventionally beautiful garments. 

As Megan explained on another occasion, Noah possesses unparalleled sartorial talents. Getting dressed to school can take quite some time for this reason, she told  E! News , because her son will try to construct new styles, or put on items in a peculiar, unique, immediately-recognizable way.

While her and her husband's loyal fans might not appreciate seeing a young boy in shockingly unusual ensembles, the family is not that concerned. Megan and Brian swear by an open-minded, progressive parenting style, and they have no intention to impose limits on what their kids should or shouldn't wear. 

"I’ve heard from some people that they don’t agree with him wearing dresses. To them I say, I don’t care. He’s 4 and if he wants to wear it then he wears it," stated Brian in an interview with the Hollywood Pipeline. "And it’s dresses or goggles or slippers or whatever," he added. "It’s his life, they’re not my clothes. I feel like at 4 at 5, that’s a time when he should be having fun. He’s not harming anyone wearing a dress. So if he wants to wear a dress, good on him."

It's a two thumbs up from Brian, but how about Megan? Isn't she afraid that the public scrutiny might have a lasting negative impact on her son's self-esteem?

As she argued in a previous interview with Harper's Bazaar , it's her priority to teach Noah to respond constructively to these tendencies. The freedom of self-expression is paramount, she emphasized, stating that her son will continue to enjoy the liberty to present himself in whichever way he likes, no matter how it is received.

The 'Beverly Hills, 90210' alum shares sons Noah, 11, Bodhi, 10, and Journey, 7, with Fox.

Brian Austin Green is opening up about coparenting with ex Megan Fox .

in a recent interview with E! News , the actor -- who shares sons Noah, 11, Bodhi, 10, and Journey, 7, with Fox -- shared that his secret to raising his kids with Fox is to keep the children the top priority.

"The number one is always make sure that everything is centered around the experience of the kids," Green, 50, said.

"People make a mistake of thinking that they're gonna do things so the separation doesn't affect the kids and that's -- of course it's gonna affect the kids," he continued. "The only choice you have is how it affects the kids."

The Beverly Hills, 90210 alum added that the key to coparenting with an ex is to "pick your battles."

"The person that you were with that you're now separated from, you guys are separated for a reason, because you didn't get along," Green said. "So, you can't expect to then get along after the fact in raising your kids. So, you have to decide, 'OK, it's not about us getting along anymore. It's about us coparenting, which is a totally different situation.'"

Meanwhile, Fox previously spoke about coparenting with Green during an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show back in November, noting that she believes it's important how their kids see their parents treat one another.

"I think it's really important when people separate to never ever disparage the other parent or even in a passive aggressive way, make remark," she explained. "I don't let anything in my energy like that when I'm around my kids because if I don't accept and love their father I'm rejecting a part of them because he's a part of who they are always."

Green and Fox separated in 2020 after nearly 10 years of marriage. Their divorce was finalized in February 2022.

Green is engaged to Dancing with the Stars pro Sharna Burgess , with the couple welcoming son, Zane, on June 28, 2022. He is also dad to son Kassius, 21, from his past relationship with Vanessa Marcil.

Megan Fox Shares a Photo of Her Clones: Mom Gloria and 1-Year-Old Son Journey

Megan Fox is cloning herself. The actress shared a photo with her two doppelgängers on Thursday, and we’re losing our cool over how much she looks like both her mom, Gloria, and her 1-year-old son, Journey.

Fox shared the photo of three generations of her family, and the resemblance is truly uncanny. On the left there’s Megan, who looks radiant as always in a low-key T-shirt and striped track pants, shading her eyes with a pair of sunglasses.

In a carrier on her chest is her son Journey, whom she welcomed with Brian Austin Green in August 2016. The 1-year-old looks adorable in an orca whale onesie, and there’s no denying that he’s inherited mom’s big blue eyes.

On the right is Fox’s mom Gloria, who looks so much like her daughter we had to do a double-take. From her light eyes to her smile, the actress is truly her mother’s daughter.

“Clone wars,” Fox appropriately captioned the photo on Instagram of the three stunning generations.

Good genes must run in the family.

Megan Fox Opens up About Son Noah's Decision To Wear Dresses: 'Be Confident No Matter What'

Megan Fox shares three sons — Journey, 3, Bodhi, 5, and Noah, 6 — with husband Brian Austin Green

Megan Fox is encouraging her son Noah to unapologetically be himself.

Appearing on an episode of The Talk on Thursday, the actress, 33, opened up to the co-hosts about her 6-year-old little boy, whom she shares with husband, Brian Austin Green. (The couple is also parents to sons Journey , 3, and Bodhi , 5.)

In particular, Fox discussed how Noah is "really into fashion" and often wears whatever he wants to school, including dresses, despite receiving negative feedback from his classmates.

"Sometimes, he'll dress himself and he likes to wear dresses, sometimes," Fox explained. "And I send him to a really liberal, hippy school, but even there — here in California — he still has little boys going, 'Boys don't wear dresses,' or 'Boys don't wear pink.'"

"So we're going through that now, where I'm trying to teach him to be confident no matter what anyone else says," Fox continued.

"He just wore one two days ago to school, and he came home and I was like, 'How was it? Did any of the friends at school have anything to say?'" Fox recalled. "And he was like, 'Well, all the boys laughed when I came in, but I don't care, I love dresses too much.'"

Besides proudly dressing himself, the mother of three also revealed that Noah will occasionally provide input during her own clothing fittings — though sometimes, his suggestions aren't always the most ideal.

"He designs, he draws outfits. He's very talented," she said of her son. "But he's still 6 so, when I do fittings, like, I did one recently and I had this really beautiful yellow dress on, and he kept draping it in a way where he's like, 'If we do it like this, it looks like a diaper!'"

Through her laughter, Fox sweetly added: "I was like, 'That's not what we're going for this time, but maybe next time!'"

Fox and Green, 46, are fairly private when it comes to their children, but in August 2017, the Beverly Hills, 90210 alum opened up in a series of candid interviews with Hollywood Pipeline's Straight from the Source about the way the couple's oldest son chooses to express himself.

"Does it affect you guys if you see people talking crap on it?" host Dax Holt wondered, referring to comments they may have gotten after Noah was seen out and about with his parents wearing a dress.

Green didn't skip a beat. "My son, he's 4," he explained at the time. "I've heard from some people that they don't agree with him wearing dresses. To them I say, I don't care . He's 4 and if he wants to wear it, then he wears it."

"And it's dresses or goggles or slippers or whatever," Green continued. "It's his life, they're not my clothes … I feel like at 4, at 5, that's a time when he should be having fun. He's not harming anyone wearing a dress. So if he wants to wear a dress, good on him."

Fox seems to have a similar mindset, but instead of words, she has let her photos do the talking.

Last year, the actress shared a series of photos from Halloween , featuring herself dressed in a Harry Potter Gryffindor robe, wand in hand, accompanied by her three sons, husband and nephew for a night of trick-or-treating.

The rare snapshot gallery of the festivities was shared to Instagram, showing off the boys' creative costumes, including Journey's unicorn onesie and Bodhi's PJ Masks Gekko costume.

Noah, meanwhile, took a loose leaf out of his mom's Jennifer's Body book and dressed as a zombie cheerleader in a red and white uniform dress.

"Happy Halloween🎃," Fox captioned the photos .
