Brian Austin Green doesn't regret calling his relationship with Vanessa Marcil "toxic".
The 51-year-old actor - who has Kassius, 23, with Vanessa - has explained why he chose to speak out about his relationship with the 56-year-old actress.
Asked if he had any regrets about his comments, Brian - who split from Vanessa back in 2003 - told People: "No, because everything that's come recently has genuinely been for the purpose of speaking about a relationship.
"It's not pointing fingers, placing blame on anyone. If she takes things that way, then there's nothing I can do about it."
Brian made the critical comments on his 'Old-ish' podcast - but the actor never intended to offend anybody.
He said: "It's pretty obvious just in listening to the things that I say and what it is we do on our show, that's not our intention.
"Our intention is to help people. And people go through toxic situations and tough situations and the best you can do is be open and honest about it and hopefully steer other people clear of those situations or help them get through them."
Earlier this month, Brian described his relationship with Vanessa as "very toxic".
The 'Beverly Hills, 90210' star said on the 'Old-ish' podcast: "Relationships have been interesting for me.
"I had some major missteps … The relationship that I had with Vanessa was very toxic in that way. It wasn’t a loving, caring relationship."
Brian also admitted that the turbulent romance fundamentally changed him.
Reflecting on the most impactful relationships in his life, Brian explained: "With my mom, everything was about me, and with Vanessa, it wasn’t that at all.
"After two years, you’re kind of looking at yourself in the mirror, asking, ‘Who am I at this point? There’s not one piece of me that’s left. My relationship with everyone around me has changed.’ That relationship ended up not working out."
Brian was married to movie star Megan Fox between 2010 and 2022. And although their romance ended in divorce, Brian has much fonder memories of his time with Megan.
The actor - who has Noah, 12, Bodhi, 11, and Journey, eight, with his ex-wife - shared: "Megan was a breath of fresh air coming out of what felt like Vietnam."

Maple Leafs make six roster cuts with two notable surprises
The Toronto Maple Leafs have already begun their training camp prior to the start of the 2025-26 NHL season. Although no further trade moves have been announced, the Leafs have made changes to their roster and have officially sent back six prospects to their junior teams. Specifically, the players leaving camp are as follows. Two surprising moves by the Maple Leafs Perhaps the most surprising cases are those of Tyler Hopkins and Matthew Hlacar. Hopkins, 18, even received the opportunity to be promoted to Group 2 at camp recently, where he shared the ice with top prospects like Easton Cowan, plus John Tavares and William Nylander. On the other hand, Hlacar, 19, was also one of the forwards who performed best during the rookie camp, following a season of seven goals and one assist for eight points in 43 games in the OHL with the Kitchener Rangers. That said, although it is surprising due to their performances, it also makes sense considering that the OHL season began this weekend. If they were not going to be considered sufficiently by Craig Berube, the best thing for these players is to get into rhythm with their junior teams and continue preparing to make the jump to the highest level in the coming years. The two prospects were drafted just this year. Hopkins was selected 86th overall by Toronto, while Hlacar was drafted by the Leafs in the seventh round. Both hope to break into the main roster sooner rather than later.
Rangers forward in a fight for his future amid new competition
The New York Rangers are preparing to start a transitional season, following the arrival of new head coach Mike Sullivan and some important adjustments to the squad. Among the players facing a decisive season is Brennan Othmann, a left winger who was selected in the first round of the 2021 NHL draft. Othmann, 22, is entering his third and final year of his contract with the Rangers, but his expiring deal is not the only reason why he will have to prove himself this season. The Canadian has had difficulties meeting the high expectations around him and although he may no longer have time to establish himself as a top-six forward, this is the best time to establish himself in a lower role. Othmann's clock is ticking as competition for roster spot grows Last season, he only recorded two assists in 22 games with the Rangers, but tallied 12 goals and eight assists in 27 games with the AHL Hartford Wolf Pack. In any case, now Othmann is facing heavier competition within the squad. Both Gabe Perreault and Carey Terrance have left good impressions during preseason camps, and with both having multiple years left on their contracts, the possibility that Othmann's days on the team are numbered increases. That said, the New York team needs depth, especially in the bottom-six, and Othmann must react and respond. He has the necessary grit and physicality, and if he manages to establish himself there, he could become a solid player within the bottom lineups.
Why did the Orioles activate star player during last week of season?
Ahead of the final six games of the season (all against American League East foes), the Baltimore Orioles have activated catcher Adley Rutschman. The move may have little to do with this season and everything about what the Orioles may do with Rutschman in the offseason. Sidelined with a right oblique strain since Aug. 21 (retroactive to Aug. 18), Rutschman has struggled this season, slashing just .227/.310/.373 with nine homers and 29 RBI. His OPS+ of 92 is the lowest in the four years he has been behind the plate in Baltimore. While the Orioles certainly would like to get the former No. 1 overall pick in the 2019 MLB Draft back behind the plate to finish out the season, this short six-game stint against the Tampa Bay Rays and New York Yankees may also serve as an audition for Rutschman should the Orioles decide to move him in the offseason. Why would the Orioles move on from Rutschman? After playing in just four games, Baltimore signed 21-year-old catcher Samuel Basallo to an eight-year extension worth $67M and could jump up to $88.5M with incentives. The deal means Basallo will be with Baltimore through the 2033 season and has an option to extend that to 2034 as well. With the Orioles investing so much in Basallo, could the 27-year-old Rutschman be on his way out of Charm City? Baltimore could well keep the younger and cost-controlled Basallo behind the plate and use Rutschman as a trade piece this offseason, helping the Orioles rebuild quickly from a season where they will likely finish in the division cellar. With Rutschman coming back, he has the chance to put a positive spin on what has been a disappointing season. If he can show well in the final six games, it could be a great selling point for the Orioles this offseason in any kind of trade talks surrounding him. Orioles are faced with one of two options with Basallo and Rutschman Baltimore interim manager Tony Mansolino has already hinted that Basallo and Rutschman could be in the same lineup together in 2026, emphasizing that Basallo could play first base (a position that could likely be his in 2026 if the Orioles decide to not push Coby Mayo there). Mansolino also added that between first base, catcher and designated hitter, there may be enough at-bats for both Basallo and Rutschman. If that's the case, Baltimore is believing that not only can Basallo play first base at an MLB-level (he has played there in one game so far this season) and Rutschman can bounce back from a down 2025. Baltimore could likely land a nice return package (perhaps centered around pitching) if it decides to trade Rutschman in the offseason, something that MLB insider Bob Nightengale of USA Today believes will happen, writing, "There will be no bigger position player on the trade block this winter than Baltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman." These next six games may not determine much in the standings for the Orioles, but could give a hint about Rutschman's future and what is to come at catcher in 2026.
CJ West and Mykel Williams injuries add to 49ers' D-line woes
The San Francisco 49ers suffered more than one setback in their win over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. While Nick Bosa's season-ending ACL tear was the most significant injury for the team, it wasn't the only one along the defensive front. Head coach Kyle Shanahan revealed Monday that defensive lineman CJ West broke his thumb and will undergo surgery on Tuesday. Despite the injury, there remains a chance West could play in the 49ers' Week 4 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars, depending on what he can do—if anything—in practice this week. "I don't know exactly how he did it, but he broke his thumb," Shanahan explained during his conference call. "That's why he is needing surgery. He'll have a chance, they say. We'll see how it goes this week, but he'll have a chance at the end of the week with a cast. "And if not, he should be good the following week. But we've got to see how this week goes with him." The 49ers also saw rookie defensive lineman Mykel Williams briefly leave Sunday's game with a wrist injury in the second quarter. He returned before halftime, but Shanahan listed him as day-to-day heading into Wednesday's practice. With Bosa sidelined for the season, the health of West and Williams will be pivotal as San Francisco leans on its young defensive front to maintain pressure on opposing offenses. Shanahan praised the group's resilience after Bosa exited against the Cardinals. "We needed guys to step it up to play along with Nick, and now that he's out, you need them that much more," Shanahan said. "But I had definitely been happy with those guys. I think they've done better each week. "I thought Mykel had a really good game yesterday. I think [DE Bryce] Huff's done some real good things, [DE] Sam [Okuayinonu], all our edge players, I think have been contributing, and hopefully, they continue to get better throughout this year."
