Kanye West’s whirlwindromance with Julia Foxmay be winding down.
A source tells PEOPLE that the pair’s relationship, which began after they met in Miami on New Year’s Eve, has been difficult to maintain cross-country.
“Kanye and Julia both have separate busy lives. Julia lives in New York City and Kanye has been in Los Angeles. The distance makes it hard,” the insider says. “They are still in touch and will see each other when they can. Kanye really likes her. It’s fair to say that they have cooled off a bit, though.”
“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,” Fox wrote in the magazine at the time.
