While the pair don't appear to have officially separated yet, a recent article by Page Six stated that Julia is allegedly in a tumultuous relationship with her husband because due to a number of scathing remarks she made about him on Instagram over Christmas.

One such statement made by Julia alleged that her husband 'left her' with their baby and to 'pall all the bills' alone.

"This man left me with a 5-month-old and a dog and a home and ALL THE BILLS," it read.

Responding to the claims, Julia's husband Peter told Page Six: "I was saddened to learn of the utterly false statements made on social media by Julia Fox, my co-parent, who is clearly struggling.

"Out of respect for her privacy and to protect our child, I will not comment further.”

Just days after her scathing comments about her husband, Julia was spotted out on a date with newly-single Kanye.

While the pair have yet to confirm their relationship, Julia gushed about her 'date night' with Kanye in Interview Magazine.

"I met Ye in Miami on New Year’s Eve and it was an instant connection," she penned.

“His energy is so fun to be around. He had me and my friends laughing, dancing, and smiling all night.

"We decided to keep the energy going and fly back to New York City to see Slave Play."

"Ye’s flight landed at six and the play was at seven and he was there ON TIME. I was impressed," she added.

The actress went on to address her second date with the rapper, admitting that it was a photoshoot and he directed all of it.

"At the restaurant, Ye directed an entire photo shoot for me while people dined. The whole restaurant loved it and cheered us on while it was happening. After dinner Ye had a surprise for me. I mean, I’m still in shock.

“Ye had an entire hotel suite full of clothes. It was every girl’s dream come true. It felt like a real Cinderella moment."

"She knows it's not serious and is just typical hijinks from Kanye."

The source continued to say the SKIMS founder sees it as a desperate attempt to make her jealous. "She honestly doesn't care, she's very over him at this point so his little game isn't working," they added.

And they said that the only thing Kim cares for regarding Kanye is that their kids are happy and enjoy life.
