Amber Rose is praising ex Machine Gun Kelly for taking responsibility for his actions.
The model recently looked back at her relationships—including with ex-husband Wiz Khalifa and Kanye West—and has detailed how the "My Ex's Best Friend" stands out among her other former boyfriends due to a simple respectful gesture he made following their 2015 split.
"Out of all of my relationships, besides my ex-husband, he was the only one that apologized to me," Amber said on the March 13 episode of The Jason Lee Show. "He was the only one that came up to me and said, 'Amber, you know what, you were one of the best girlfriends I ever had and you didn't deserve to be treated that way.' The only one."
The 40-year-old added, "So shout-out to you, MGK."
Amber—who shares son Sebastian, 11, with her ex-husband, and Slash, 4, with Alexander "A.E." Edwards—dated "Bloody Valentine" rocker, 33, had dated for a few months in 2015 while she was in the middle of her divorce from Wiz.

MGK, who hasn't commented publicly about her in years and has since moved on with fiancée Megan Fox, has not responded to her latest remarks. During his romance with Amber, he spoke about what it was like for him to date the fellow celeb.
"I had no idea what came with [Amber's lifestyle]," he said in a Hot 97 interview in May 2015, a couple of months before their split was made public. "I'd be lying if I didn't say that it's not like a struggle every day doubled with the fact that it is like one of the most anti-spotlight people ever and one of the most in-the-spotlight people ever."
While discussing her other exes in her recent interview on The Jason Lee Show, Amber briefly reflected on the problems in her past relationship with Kanye, who she dated between 2008 and 2010. "Kanye, you know, we had our s--t, I was young," she said. But I can't fully blame everything on him."
In addition, Amber spoke about her 2021 breakup From AE, who had admitted to cheating on her with 12 women during their three-year relationship. The model said she had DMed several of them after finding out about his infidelity to find out the "truth."
"I think when you're dealing with a narcissist in a relationship, you feel like you're absolutely crazy. You're doing things that are out of character," Amber said. "I can look back now and be like, 'Why did I give a f--k?'"
She added, "You live and you learn. I will never do that ever again."
Look back at surprising star couples over the years:
Brad Pitt and Juliette Lewis
They played doomed lovers twice, in 1990's Too Young to Die? and 1993's Kalifornia, but in real life they had a perfectly lovely relationship.
"I still love the woman," Pitt, who was Lewis' date to the 1992 Oscars when she scored a Supporting Actress nomination for Cape Fear, told Vanity Fair in February 1995. "There's some real genius there. I had a great time with her...It was one of the greatest relationships I've ever been in. The problem is, we grow up with this vision that love conquers all, and that's just not so, is it?"
Winona Ryder & Matt Damon
It wasn't just a Gen X fever dream, they really closed out the 20th century as a couple after, legend has it, being introduced by Gwyneth Paltrow (who famously dated Damon's best bud Ben Affleck). They split up in 2000.
After the fact, Damon called Ryder a "great woman" in a 2004 Playboy interview, while Ryder told Black Book in 2009, "Matt couldn't be a greater, nicer guy. I'm really lucky that I'm on good terms with him."
Cameron Diaz & Justin Timberlake
There was something about their chemistry at the 2003 Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards, where Diaz presented Timberlake with the award for Best Burp—because they dated for almost four years, seriously enough to issue a statement when their relationship ended in 2007, "mutually and as friends, with continued love and respect for one another."
David Moscow & Kerry Washington
The Scandal star appeared on the cover of InStyle Weddings in 2005 when she was engaged to the Big actor, but they split up in 2007.
Madonna & Tupac Shakur
Madonna never addressed the story that she dated the rapper, who was killed in 1996 when he was only 25, until 2015. When Howard Stern brought up her infamously feisty 1994 chat with David Letterman, she explained, "I was dating Tupac at the time, and the thing is...he got me all riled up on life in general."
Jake Gyllenhaal & Reese Witherspoon
After her divorce from Ryan Phillippe and before marrying agent Jim Toth, Reese starred with Jake in the 2007 thriller Rendition and they dated for a couple of years.
"She is, as I would say about most of the women who I'm close friends with or had relationships in my life," Jake said admiringly of his ex, "one of the smartest, strongest people I've ever met."
Meg Tilly & Colin Firth
Before marrying Livia Giuggioli in 1997 (they separated in 2019), Firth had a five-year relationship with Tilly that produced son William Joseph Firth, who was born Sept. 20, 1990. The younger Firth is also an actor who appeared with his father in Bridget Jones's Baby.
Mandy Moore & Andy Roddick
This was them: The U.S. Open champ courted the A Walk to Remember star between 2003 and 2004, but ultimately it wasn't a love match.
"He broke my heart," Moore told Howard Stern in 2018. "I was a kid, he was a kid. I started dating him when I was 18."
Dave Coulier & Alanis Morissette
You oughta know by now that one of the most enduring mysteries in music history is who exactly inspired Morissette's iconic 1995 single—and the Full House star is at the top of the list of maybes! Morissette denied it in the 2021 documentary Jagged, but that's a tough pill to swallow.
Alanis Morissette & Ryan Reynolds
"Oh yeah, I love her music," Reynolds told People of his then-fiancée in 2005. "It can be awkward when she walks in and I'm listening to it in my underwear dancing."
The music stopped for the Canadians in 2007, but their breakup after four years together was very polite.
January Jones & Jason Sudeikis
You can't blame the Mad Men star for liking funny guys. Jones and Sudeikis dated for a few months in 2010, five years before she briefly dated Will Forte.
Minnie Driver & Matt Damon
The Good Will Hunting stars paired off in real life, too, but they didn't drive off into the sunset together.
"Well, I'm single," Damon said on The Oprah Winfrey Show in January 1998. "I was with Minnie for a while, but we're not really romantically involved anymore. We're just really good friends, and I love her dearly….I care about her a lot. We care about each other a lot. It wasn't meant to be, you know? And if it's not meant to be, then it's not meant to be."
The pronouncement was a bit too public for Driver's taste. "It's unfortunate that Matt went on Oprah," she told the LA Times later that year. "It seemed like a good forum for him to announce to the world that we were no longer together, which I found fantastically inappropriate."
Helen Mirren & Liam Neeson
The stars met on the set of the 1981 movie Excalibur and eventually lived together (Neeson says Mirren gave him his first driving lessons) before they broke up in the mid-'80s.
"I should be so lucky and be honored to have spent three or four years with that lady," Neeson told ET Canada in February 2023. "She's really something else."
Jeff Goldblum & Laura Dern
Finding love in Jurassic Park? Talk about a meat cute.
The co-stars began dating after filming the 1993 blockbuster, with Goldblum telling The Chicago Tribune at the time, "I was struck, I'd been a big fan of hers. I think she's an amazing actress, and a spectacular person. I was struck from the beginning. But after the movie we realized we liked each other."
They got engaged in 1995 but ultimately split two years later. They reunited on-screen for the first time in 2022's Jurassic World: Dominion, the sixth installment in the franchise.
Gillian Anderson and Peter Morgan
The X-Files alum was in a relationship with The Crown creator between 2016 and 2020. Anderson won an Emmy for her turn as Margaret Thatcher in the Netflix hit in 2020.
David Arquette and Ellen Barkin
According to Arquette, the two dated while filming their 1995 Western Wild Bill.
Jeremy Sisto & Reese Witherspoon
The Clueless actor confirmed a little-known rumor during a Reddit AMA chat in November 2015, revealing that he used to date the actress. The two had starred in the 1992 TV movie Desperate Choices: To Save My Child.
"She was my first actress girlfriend," he said. "We had a long distance relationship for a long time. I was so into her."
Bethenny Frankel & Eric Stonestreet
E! News exclusively broke the news that the Real Housewives of New York star and Modern Family actor were a pair in 2015. But by the following year, they had split.

The Southland alum and the actor, who played Theo Huxtable on The Cosby Show, dated for several years before calling it quits in 2013.

Val Kilmer & Cher
