Kanye West's Girlfriend Julia Fox Secretly Dated Drake, Rapper 'Not Happy' About Hush-Hush Romance

It looks like Kim Kardashian isn't the only woman Kanye West and Drake have in common. The Canadian reportedly dated his former archenemy's girlfriend Julia Fox nearly two years before Ye.
According to Page Six, Drake and Julia had a secret romance back in 2020 pre-pandemic.
Sources tell the outlet that Julia informed the Jesus Is King rapper about her hot-and-heavy relationship with Drake, and Kanye isn't happy about it.
The story goes like this: the Hotline Bling rapper reportedly slid into Julia's DMs after watching her star alongside Adam Sandler in the 2019 drama, Uncut Gems.
At the time, she was with her husband, Peter Artemiev. When their relationship came crumbling down the following year, Julia reportedly got in touch with Drake.
The In My Feelings rapper — whose net worth is reportedly close to $200 million — spared no expense when it came to Julia. Insiders claim he wined and dined her at fancy restaurants in the U.S. and even brought her home to Canada.
Drake and Julia allegedly first met in New York City at the Bowery Hotel for drinks in February 2020. He apparently couldn't get enough because the following day he crashed a promotional gig she had at Bloomingdale's and "they closed down the store so he could visit."
The pair even allegedly spent time on Kanye's home turf in Los Angeles. According to Page Six, Drake flew Julia to Tinsel Town after Valentine's Day that year and dropped some serious cash on her.
The musician allegedly bought her not one, but two Birkin bags, which retail between $20,000 to $500,000.
“Then she went to [his hometown] Toronto to stay with him,” the insider spilled. Drake and Julia were making sparks fly until the pandemic ruined it. “They were closing the border [between Canada and the US], and she had to get back home,” the source added.
Instead of pursuing Drake, she rekindled her romance with her ex, and she got pregnant. Julia gave birth to her son in January 2021.
Julia and Peter broke up and the rest is history.
She began dating Kanye immediately after meeting him on New Year's Eve in Miami. The two have been jet-setting all over the world, flaunting her PDA-filled romance ever since.
Of course, Ye is still going through his $2.1 billion divorce with Kim.

Kanye and Drake's beef stems from the latter insinuating he hooked up with the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star. After years of feuding, they put their drama aside and came together to perform in their Free Larry Hoover concert in December, where Kanye begged for Kim to take him back.
