Julia Fox’s longest public relationship was with Peter Artemiev, a private pilot. They surprised everyone by getting married just one month after they started dating in 2018.

Fox called their Las Vegas wedding a whirlwind of love and said in a podcast appearance with Forbidden Fruits that she had dreamed of a “Russian guy from Coney Island” as her perfect match. However, this romance wasn’t meant to last.

Artemiev filed for divorce in 2020, but it wasn’t finalized until July that year. Even after splitting up, the two welcomed a son, Valentino, in January 2021. Sadly, their co-parenting didn’t go smoothly, and Fox expressed her frustrations about Artemiev’s involvement with their son.

After Julia Fox’s divorce, there were rumors that she had a short fling with rapper Drake. Fox downplayed the relationship on the podcast, calling him a “gentleman” and that it wasn’t serious. But on Watch What Happens Live, she teased about a luxurious private jet date with an “A-lister,” making fans wonder if it was Aub.

In early 2022, Fox’s love life made headlines when she started dating Kanye West. They were seen on a casual date in New York City, and the model also wrote about a crazy night with him in an Interview Magazine piece.

Even though they tried to deny it was just for publicity, their relationship ended after two months. The Milan native later said she felt overwhelmed by the rapper’s complicated nature and all the media attention surrounding their brief time together.
