Elon Musk’s ex-partner cries out over his refusal to respond while showing off at political event
By Jeph Ajobaju, Chief Copy Editor
Canadian singer Grimes (real name Claire Boucher) has called out ex-partner Elon Musk, owner of X, for ignoring the urgent medical concerns of their child, who she did not name among the three she has for the billionaire Tesla and Space X Chief Executive Officer.
Grimes explained in a series of posts that Musk has repeatedly ignored her despite several attempts to communicate.
Her latest grouse comes on the heels of their ongoing co-parenting dispute that has reignited discussions about Musk’s personal life and responsibilities.
New York Post reports Grimes as making an “urgent” plea to Musk on their child’s behalf.
The “Genesis” singer, 36, took to X, imploring Musk, 53, to respond to the texts, calls and emails she says she sent to him about a “medical crisis” that one of their three children currently faces.
“Plz respond about our child’s medical crisis,” she wrote.
“I am sorry to do this publicly but it is no longer acceptable to ignore this situation. This requires immediate attention.
“If you don’t want to talk to me can you please designate or hire someone who can so that we can move forward on solving this.
“This is urgent, Elon.”
Grimes did not mention which of her and Musk’s children is in duress.
When a commenter replied that they didn’t think going public would help the situation, Grimes underscored the direness of her situation, saying their child could “suffer life long impairment.”
“I’m not giving any details but he won’t respond to texts call or emails and has skipped every meeting and our child will suffer life long impairment if he doesn’t respond asap, so I need him to f – – king respond and if I have to apply public pressure then I guess that’s where we are at,” she posted.
She shared one more comment before removing her posts.
“I am deleting them now because if they’re being shadow banned and not eliciting a response then all it is a media circus at the expense of the kids,” she wrote.
Following her plea, Musk made a surprise appearance at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Oxon Hill, Maryland, raising a giant chainsaw in an attempt to underscore his mission to drastically cut the United States federal budget and workforce via President Donald Trump’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
“This is the chainsaw for bureaucracy,” Musk said to cheers from the crowd.
The South African began dating Grimes in 2018 and had an on-again, off-again relationship until splitting for good in 2022.
The following December, the pair welcomed their daughter, Exa Dark Sideræl Musk, who goes by Y, via surrogate. Musk and Grimes had their third child, Techno Mechanicus, a k a “Tau,” in June 2022.
The former couple have been locked in an acrimonious custody battle since ending their relationship.
Grimes, who has accused Musk of keeping her children from her, has recently disavowed the tech entrepreneur’s politics and criticized him for bringing X Æ A-Xii, nicknamed X, to the White House for a photo op with Trump in the Oval Office earlier this month.
Musk has 10 other children apart from those he shares with Grimes, allegedly including a new one with Ashley St. Clair, 26, who recently claimed she gave birth to his 13th child five months ago.
