Elon Musk Faces Lawsuit From Ex-Girlfriend Grimes Over Parental Rights

Elon Musk, the billionaire entrepreneur, finds himself embroiled in a legal dispute with his former partner, the Canadian musician Grimes (legal name Claire Boucher), regarding the parental rights of their three children. This contentious situation has taken a legal turn, as Grimes filed a petition in San Francisco Superior Court seeking to establish a parental relationship.

The Musk-Grimes Offspring

X AE A-12, Exa Dark Siderael Musk, and Techno Mechanicus

Elon Musk, aged 52, and Grimes, aged 35, share three children together. Their family expanded with the birth of their first child, X AE A-12, followed by the arrival of Exa Dark Siderael Musk in 2021 through surrogacy. Subsequently, they welcomed their third child, a son named Techno Mechanicus.

Allegations of Denied Access

Grimes’ Claim of Restricted Access

Grimes’ petition alleges that Elon Musk has been denying her access to one of their children. Her request to the court revolves around the legal status of the child-parent relationship in cases where the parents are not married.

A Relationship Unraveled

From Romance to Separation

Mr. Musk and Grimes had an on-again, off-again relationship that spanned from 2018 until their official separation in September 2021. The news of their third child’s existence was only recently revealed in Walter Isaacson’s biography of Elon Musk, where it was also disclosed that Musk had impressed Grimes with a high-speed Tesla Autopilot ride.

Grimes’ Perspective

“The Best Internship Ever”

In an interview with Wired, Grimes described her relationship with Musk as “like the best internship ever.” She praised Musk as a “great general” professionally, shedding light on why the billionaire often involves himself in various social issues. Grimes also emphasized that their children would have an intense upbringing due to the unique circumstances of being Elon Musk’s offspring.

A Complex Family Situation

Ten Children, Three Mothers

Elon Musk is the father of a total of ten living children, shared among three different women. Five of his children, Griffin, Vivian, Kai, Saxon, and Damian, are with Canadian author Justine Wilson. Additionally, he welcomed twins with Shivon Zilis, the director of operations and special projects at Neuralink, in November 2021, shortly before the birth of his second child with Grimes.
