Julia Fox Opens Up About ‘Sour Taste’ Left by Brief Romance with Kanye West

Julia Fox has expressed bitterness about her brief romance with Kanye West in 2022. The 34-year-old actress dated the 46-year-old rapper for just one month before he tied the knot with Bianca Censori, 29.

Kanye, also known as Ye, has been a lightning rod for controversy, including his influence over his wife’s fashion choices, which many believe are under his direction.

Julia hasn’t held back her feelings about the Yeezy founder, openly expressing relief that their relationship ended swiftly.

In a recent interview, the “Uncut Gems” star emphasized her desire to be recognized for more than just her romantic affiliations, stating, “I don’t ever want just to be known as someone’s girlfriend.”

Explaining her stance, Julia highlighted the importance of maintaining her identity in an industry where women are often overshadowed by their partners. She believes avoiding relationships within the industry allows her to transcend the label of being someone’s partner and break free from that mould.

Before her brief romance with Kanye, Julia had recently split from Peter Artemiev, with whom she shares a three-year-old son. Meanwhile, Kanye had finalized his divorce from Kim Kardashian.

In an interview with InStyle magazine, Julia reiterated her commitment to standing on her own merits and not relying on a man to define her worth. She emphasized her dedication to establishing herself independently and earning recognition for her accomplishments.

Julia has been vocal about her experience with Kanye, describing their relationship as overwhelming, especially as she balanced motherhood with dating. She has always prioritized her son, Valentino, over any romantic entanglements.

In her memoir, “Down The Drain,” Julia lightly touched on her fling with Kanye, opting not to delve into details to avoid potential conflicts with the Grammy-winning artist.

During their brief relationship, Julia found herself in uncomfortable situations, such as being presented with racks of clothing to change into during dates and even being offered a breast augmentation, which she declined.

The romance abruptly ended when Kanye’s assistant informed Julia that he was taking a month-long break from phone communication. Julia felt used, believing she was unwittingly part of Kanye’s strategy to retaliate against his ex-wife.

Despite the challenges and disappointments, Julia remains resilient and focused on her personal growth and professional success. She’s determined to discover her path and be recognized for her talents and achievements beyond her romantic history.
