Julia Fox made headlines last year when she started getting cozy with Kanye West after his split with Kim Kardashian. The model-turned-actress was seen on various public outings with the musician, including fancy dinner dates. While it seemed like they got along well and were going strong, the relationship ended pretty quickly. Following the breakup, Ye was embroiled in too many controversies regarding his comments about the Jewish community.

The Donda rapper went on a rant on his social media last year when he called Defcon 3 over the Jews. He downplayed Adolf Hitler’s actions. The controversy cost him partnership deals with Adidas, Gap, and Balenciaga. Now his former partner has opened up about what she thinks about his sentiments.

In a recent chat with Elle, Fox revealed that Ye’s remarks terrified her Jewish friends. While dating him, she never knew he was capable of such hate speech. “Some of my Jewish friends are shook right now, and that f-cking breaks my heart. I really, truly, would’ve never seen him taking this direction,” she confessed.

The Italian further expressed that she feels terribly sorry for everyone that got dragged into the controversy. While Kanye West did make hate speeches, which got him publicly canceled and banned from social media sites, Fox feels his family and kids were not at fault. 

The model-turned-actress only had about a month-long flick with the rapper. While she could not stop gushing about him initially, soon after their split, the Uncut Gems star picked Drake over Ye as her best celebrity date!

Many fans claimed that her red outfit was a tribute to the producer. It was inspired by Ye’s outfit from the Donda listening party in 2021. Furthermore, her iconic floating stage was a callback to Ye’s Saint Pablo Tour performance.
