While she was still with Artemiev at the time, after they broke up, a source told Page Six ‘she got back in touch with Drake on the social media app.’
During their short-lived romance in early 2020, Drake reportedly ‘showered her with gifts including two Birkin bags’ around Valentine’s Day and they shared drinks at the Bowery Hotel.
While she shot a campaign at Bloomingdale’s, staffers ‘closed down the store so he could visit.’

‘Ye [Kanye West] is not thrilled about it,’ the insider noted of his reaction to learning of her past romantic link to Drake.
Despite managing to keep their dates under the radar, Fox ‘went to [Drake’s hometown] Toronto to stay with him.’

Fox went on to rekindle with Artemiev, but they called it quits months later.
On New Year’s Eve, the mom-of-one ended up meeting West in Miami and they’ve been enjoying quite the whirlwind romance for the past month.

After just two dates, the lovebirds starred in a widely mocked photo shoot for Interview Magazine, in which they passionately kissed and rolled around on the floor together.
She even wrote an essay about their ‘instant connection’ and how West’s ‘energy is so fun to be around.’
Fox also gushed that he surprised her with a hotel suite full of clothes, which was ‘every girl’s dream come true’ and ‘felt like a real Cinderella moment.’
Last week, they were seen enjoying a getaway to Paris, France together.
