Julia Fox Spills the Tea on Her Wild $68,000 Shopping Spree and Her Toxic Relationship with Kanye West

In a shocking revelation that's left fans stunned, Italian-American actress Julia Fox has confessed to splurging an eye-watering $68,000 in one night on designer items from top fashion houses like Chanel, YSL, and Pucci using her ex-boyfriend's credit card. But what's even more jaw-dropping is the fact that she had to sell all these luxury goodies when he dumped her.

In a candid interview with Sunday Times Style magazine, Julia opened up about her shopping spree, stating: "I used my man's credit card in a mania, spent $68,000 in a night and bought hundreds of Chanel, YSL, Pucci, Mugler, Christian Lacroix, Alexander McQueen, and Versace pieces. I had to sell them all when he dumped me." Ouch!

But that's not the only juicy tidbit Julia shared about her past relationships. The mother-of-one also dished out the deets on her whirlwind romance with Kanye West in 2022, which she described as a "game" of "sick and twisted" control.

According to Julia, her relationship with 'the artist' (as she refers to him in her memoir) was nothing short of a nightmare. She revealed that he would often stage impromptu photoshoots, including one inside a hotel room, which was later published in Interview magazine. But what's even more disturbing is the fact that Kanye offered Julia a boob job during one of these shoots, and she had to politely decline.

In another alarming incident, Julia wrote about how Kanye would make her pose with expensive gifts like Birkin bags and film their reactions until he was satisfied with the footage. "As we post like puppets, I question his true intentions, feeling that this grand gesture is nothing more than a publicity stunt," she said.

The mother of one was married to Peter Artemiev from November 2018 after a short courtship until 2020. Their divorce was filed in February 2020 (pictured September 2019)

But what really takes the cake is Julia's account of how Kanye would only engage with her when the camera was on them. "The only time he engages is when the camera is on us," she revealed. "When he will grab me and kiss me passionately." Chilling!

And if that wasn't enough, Julia also claimed that Kanye had a team of stylists who worked tirelessly to dress her up like a 'puppet' for his parties, which she described as "Gatsby-like." She even compared it to an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians where Kanye did the same thing for his ex-wife Kim.

But what sparked the end of their tumultuous relationship was Julia's growing realization that Kanye's affections were more about showmanship than romance. As she wrote in her memoir, "I'm disconnected from the moment. I try to find gratitude for the lavish gifts, but the feeling of insincerity lingers."

Following this relationship she was briefly involved in a high-profile romance with Kanye West in 2022 for a couple of months

In a bold move, Julia refused to sign an NDA after their breakup, even at the risk of being blacklisted from the entertainment industry. She's since spoken out about her experience with Kanye, shedding light on his alleged obsession with women's clothing and control over those around him.

As for who this mysterious ex-boyfriend is whose credit card Julia used for her shopping spree? Unfortunately, she didn't spill the beans in the interview, leaving fans to speculate about the identity of the poor guy.

In a shocking twist, Julia's memoir Down The Drain also revealed that Kanye had covertly called in one of her stylists during a date, making her feel like a "show monkey." Talk about cringe!
