Julia Fox has expressed regret over her brief relationship with Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, calling it one of the most uncomfortable experiences of her life. In an interview with The Sunday Times, Fox revealed, "I regret that relationship so much. I hate it! It was only a few weeks but enough to last me a lifetime." She added that she quickly realized she was being used as a "pawn" by Ye in his attempts to get back at his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian.

The Uncut Gems star shared that the relationship, which lasted about a month in early 2022, was publicized without her consent. "It wasn't my idea," Fox explained. "We should wait, but boom, it was done behind my back."

Fox credits her 3-year-old son, Valentino, as a grounding force that helped her end the relationship, stating, "No man, no matter how rich or famous, is worth one minute away from my child." She also revealed that Ye tried to get her to publish a fabricated version of how they met, but she refused.

In her 2023 memoir Down the Drain, Fox referred to Ye as "the artist" and recalled him insisting she sign a non-disclosure agreement, to which she replied, "I'll live."

Fox has since confirmed she's not dating and recently hinted at her sexuality, stating in an interview that she considers herself a lesbian.
