Just weeks before her and West's romance made headlines, Fox stated in a December episode of her "Forbidden Fruits" podcast that she has been a fan of KUWTK since it premiered almost 15 years ago.
"I've been watching Keeping Up since it first came out in like 2007, when watching it was embarrassing," she said on the podcast episode, per People. "[We are] like die-hard, O.G. [fans of the show]...I, like, wanted them to be my family."
Fox recently opened up about her relationship with the Yeezy designer in an essay for Interview Magazine, where she explained she met the rapper for the first time in Miami, Fla. on New Year's Eve.

"His energy is so fun to be around. He had me and my friends laughing, dancing, and smiling all night," Fox said of the "Famous" singer. She also recalled her recent date night with West after flying back to New York to see "Slave Play" together.
Following the show and dinner at Carbone, West — who recently changed his name to Ye — surprised Fox with a hotel suite filled with a bundle of new clothes. "It was every girl's dream come true," she gushed to the outlet. "It felt like a real Cinderella moment."
"I don't know how he did it, or how he got all of it there in time. But I was so surprised," she continued. "Like, who does things like this on a second date? Or any date!"
The brunette babe also explained the nature of her relationship with Ye, insisting: "Everything with us has been so organic. I don't know where things are headed but if this is any indication of the future I'm loving the ride."
And as for Kardashian's thoughts on West's brewing romance, OK! learned she has no problem with her ex dating someone new as long as whoever he's with is "child-friendly." Kardashian and West share four children: North, 8, Saint, 6, Chicago, 3, and Psalm, 2.
Fox also has a son, Valentino, who she welcomed in January 2021.
