Grimes criticizes Elon Musk for letting his son appear in public

Grimes criticized Elon Musk when he brought his son X into the Oval Office on February 11, expressing his displeasure with his son’s public appearances.

Grimes, whose real name is Claire Boucher, reacted after a follower on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) alerted her son to the arrival. “My son shouldn’t be out in public like this,” she wrote. “I didn’t know about this, thanks for letting me know. But I’m glad my son behaved,” the Canadian singer-songwriter added.

Grimes previously called Musk’s public announcement of his son X a “personal tragedy.”

Elon Musk and Grimes dated from 2018 to 2022. They have three 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren together, two sons, X AE A-XII and Techno Mechanicus, and a daughter, Exa Dark Sideræ. After their split, Musk sued Grimes for custody of the 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren in Texas, where his company is based. Grimes later countersued, filing a “petition to establish parentage” in a California court, which is often considered the first step in a custody case against unmarried parents.

The 36-year-old singer revealed in November that she had been in a year-long custody battle with Musk, during which she said she had not seen one of her 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren for five months. She claimed that Musk had prevented her from seeing her 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren and even prevented them from seeing their terminally ill grandmother. A Travis County clerk confirmed that the Texas dispute had been resolved, but declined to provide further details.

Grimes said the ordeal nearly left her “broke” and unable to make music. “I would just sleep and cry if I wasn’t fighting for my 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦,” she said.

This isn’t the first time Grimes has used her ex-husband’s platform to address custody issues. She previously pleaded with Shivon Zilis, the CEO of Neuralink and mother of Musk’s other two 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren, to help her contact Musk.

Zilis is the mother of Musk’s twins Strider and Azure, as well as a 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 this year whose identity has not been made public. Musk has a total of 12 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren with three women. Justine Wilson is the mother of the six older 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren: twins Vivian Jenna and Griffin and triplets Kai, Saxon and Damian, all of whom were conceived via in vitro fertilization.

They had another daughter, Nevada, who died of sudden infant death syndrome at 10 weeks old. Musk has expressed his desire to have a large family and has frequently tweeted his concerns about the plummeting 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 rates in several countries around the world, including Australia.
