Julia Fox’s brother reveals he had ‘no idea’ his sister actress came out as lesbian

Julia Fox’s brother on Wednesday revealed he had “no idea” his famous sister recently came out as a lesbian — as he told The Post he’s lost 50 pounds since getting busted on gun charges more than a year ago.
A perplexed Christopher Fox, 31, was stunned when a Post photographer asked for his thoughts on the “Uncut Gems” star’s announcement about her sexuality earlier this month.
“Coming out here?” Fox asked, confusing the question to mean his older sister was coming to Manhattan Supreme Court, before it was rephrased.
“I have no idea — maybe? I wouldn’t know, to be honest,” Fox said from the Lower Manhattan courthouse, where he had a routine hearing in his ongoing criminal case on allegations he operated a 3D-printed weapons enterprise from his family’s Upper East Side apartment.

Fox, who is out on $450,000 cash bail in the case, was nearly unrecognizable in a black suit that swallowed him up, and told The Post he’s slimmed down since his March 2023 arrest.
“I’m eating less, working out. I was on a treadmill every day for six months,” he said, denying he uses Ozempic, a celeb-favorite weight loss injection.
“I still have a long way to go,” he added. “I lost 50 pounds but I have another 50 [pounds] to go.”

She came out as a lesbian after revealing she’s been celibate for over two years in a response to a TikTok video on July 8, when someone said, “I love when I see a lesbian with their boyfriend. It’s like ‘Aww, you hate that man. You literally hate him.'”
“Hey, that was me. I was that lesbian. So sorry, boys. Won’t happen again,” Julia quipped in the since-viral video.
She was married to Peter Artemiev from 2018 to 2020 before calling it quits, when she moved on with Kanye West.

Her brother has been charged with weapons possession and manufacturing for allegedly using a 3D-printer to make parts that could be used to build “ghost guns.”
He has pleaded not guilty.
