Keeping up with Kim Kardashian’s role in Julia Fox and Kanye West’s breakup.
The reality star allegedly played a part in the breakdown of her ex-husband’s relationship with the “Uncut Gems” star in February 2022.
Fox claimed in her “Down the Drain” memoir, which hit stores Oct. 10, that Kardashian came up during her final phone call with West.
“He tells me he had a good conversation with his soon-to-be-ex-wife and discovered a lot of information about me,” the model, 33, alleged.
The rapper, 46, subsequently told Fox that he “didn’t know [she was] a drug addict” as if she had “duped him.”
The actress, who described her heroin addiction in the book, replied, “I told you! Maybe if you listened more. And not to mention, so were you!”
Fox recalled “yelling” at this point, claiming West shot back, “You said you wouldn’t embarrass me.”
She wrote, “I refuse to let him hear me crying, so I hang up and tell my publicist to inform the press that we are over.”
Kardashian’s rep has yet to respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
The Hulu personality, 43, was in the middle of divorcing West at the time, with the former couple settling their split in November 2022.
While the “Kardashians” star never publicly addressed West and Fox’s short-lived relationship as it played out, a source told Page Six in January 2022 that she “appreciated” Fox being a fan of hers.
“She … would much rather prefer that over someone who is a hater,” the insider told us at the time.
While Fox documented much of her and West’s fling in “Down the Drain,” from their hookups to his alleged offer to pay for a boob job, she also gave glimpses into their dynamic during her press tour.

Earlier this month, Fox told the Los Angeles Times that she believes she was used as a “puppet” during West and Kardashian’s divorce.
“I thought ultimately I’d be helping a precarious situation … get[ting] him off Kim’s case,” she told the outlet. “But I very quickly learned that I was being weaponized.”
West, who married Kardashian in 2014 and called it quits in 2021, had been repeatedly slamming his ex-wife’s then-boyfriend Pete Davidson and criticizing their co-parenting dynamic.
The Yeezy creator has continued to do so as recently as last week, accusing Kardashian of keeping him from North, 10, Saint, 7, Chicago, 5, and Psalm, 4.
