Last week, Julia Fox casually revealed via TikTok comment that she’s been celibate for two and a half years and “never been happier.” Appearing on Watch What Happens Live on Monday, Fox told Andy Cohen that she views her celibacy as a personal response to the current political climate.
“Nothing good comes from having sex, including children,” Fox, who has a 3-year-old son, joked before getting serious. “I think, with the overturning of Roe v. Wade and our rights being stripped away from us, this is a way that I can take back the control,” she said. “It just sucks that it has to be in that way, but I just don’t feel comfortable until things change.”
Fox said that while she initially missed sex, “it’s just like getting over anything ― smoking, drugs, whatever it may be. Eventually you just forget and then all that energy that you were putting toward sex, you can put it toward other things.” Still, Fox said she hadn’t planned on being celibate for this long. She apparently thought it would be for six months, but “then it was a year, and then I’m like, ‘Oh my god, it’s almost two and a half years and it’s still going.’”
Asked if there’s an end date to her celibacy, Fox said she doesn’t think so. Between Fox’s embrace of not having sex and the backlash to Bumble’s ad poking fun at celibacy, maybe we really are in for Hot Celibate Summer.
