Julia Fox opened up about her failed relationship with Kanye West in a tell-it-all memoir ‘Down the Drain’ that is set to hit the shelves soon.
The 33-year-old model, who briefly dated the rapper in early 2022, lamented that Kanye ‘weaponized’ her against his ex-wife Kim Kardashian.
“I thought ultimately I’d be helping a precarious situation, but I learned very quickly that I was being weaponized,” she explained.
Julia Fox lamented that Kanye didn’t treat her the way she expected, adding that she felt like she was the rapper’s puppet.
“I just felt like his little puppet,” she said.
Julia said she ‘went lightly’ in describing her time with Kanye in the book, even though she didn’t sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA).
“I’m not signing a f*** NDA just on principle. I never have, and I never will. Unless it’s a professional opportunity, then sure,” she said.
Julia Fox noted that she may have been blacklisted from projects because of her association with the controversial rapper, who was dropped by several brands following his anti-Semitic comments.
“I know for a fact I’ve been up for certain things and couldn’t do it because of dating Kanye. It’s kind of wild,” she said.
Julia also said she never had too much invested in the romance, despite all the attention.
“It really wasn’t that big of a deal, but other people made it such a big deal.”
After the falling out with Kanye, Julia Fox steered clear of dating for a while, admitting she still doesn’tsee the point’ in dating.
“That romanticized idea of men doesn’t exist anymore,” she said.
For now, the main man is her life is her adorable son Valentino, two, whom she welcomed with her ex-husband, Peter Artemiev.
“All the validation I could ever get, I get from my son — the love, the intimacy, the closeness. We co-sleep at night. I have all of that. I wouldn’t want anyone to come in and take my attention or time away from my son.”
