Julia Fox opened up on Drew Barrymore's talk show earlier this week about her short—and apparently exhausting—relationship with Ye.

The 33-year-old actor said she quickly realized their relationship would not last. The rapper, 46, is a subject of frank discussion in the her new biography, Down the Drain. Fox and West met in Miami on New Year's Eve 2022, and dated for a month before breaking up on Valentine's Day 2022.

Fox found West to be needy and to need "a full-time person." She said he called often and needed to talk a lot, interrupting her time with her son from a former marriage.

I had my son [Valentino] and then he’d wanna talk on the phone a lot, like, I’d have to change diapers so I bought a pair of AirPods so I could keep it in while I was doing mom stuff. It was just — it was so overwhelming and so unsustainable.”

Eventually, Fox decided to draw a line.

"My son has to be first. It just became too much. I didn’t sign up to have two babies. I couldn’t do it. It felt like two babies."


People latched onto the comment about taking care of two babies.
