After the separation from Kardashian, Ye bought a house on the same street as his ex; this led to speculations about him wanting to reconcile with her.

The talented model felt secure in her relationship with West, and she believed that people would understand what they have with time.

The 32-Year-Old Receives Pleasant Surprise From Ye On Her Birthday

Earlier this month, The Blast shared that Fox got a surprise gift from West on her 32nd birthday. The rap star gifted her and her friends with five Birkin bags, of which each bag costs around $10,000. 

Not only did she get those beauties, but the couple also had fun at Lucien, a French bistro, with some of Fox's friends, where she rocked one of her new Birkin pieces.

They both wore complementing outfits; the celebrant wore a tiny black leather tube top and a pair of black snug leggings while West rocked a leather jacket with a purple hoodie under.

Getting her Birkin bags wasn't the first elaborate gesture West had made to Fox; he once got her an entire hotel suite filled with clothes.
