Elon Musk’s ex Grimes ‘begs billionaire’s to let her see their three year-old son X – and claims the mother of his twins Shivon Zilis blocked her on Twitter’
Elon Musk’s ex-girlfriend Grimes has reportedly begged the billionaire to show her son X, age three, under a photo of Musk and his twins that he shares with Shivon Zilis.
Claire Boucher, 35, who goes by her stage name Grimes, accused her children’s father of “tearing my family apart” and said the mother of his other two children, Zilis, had blocked her on Twitter.
According to screenshots of her now-deleted tweet, Grimes wrote, “Tell Shivon to unblock me and tell Elon to show me my son or please respond to my lawyer.
“I’ve never even been allowed to see a picture of these kids until now, even though the situation completely ripped my family apart.”
Claire Boucher, known by her stage name Grimes, accused the father of her children, Elon Musk, of “tearing my family apart” and said the mother of his other two children had blocked her on Twitter.
The tweet has since been deleted, but was written under a new image of Musk and his twins he had with Zilis
Grimes representatives have been contacted for comment.
She allegedly wrote the comment under Elon Musk’s newly released image featuring the Neuralink director and the twins they quietly had together nearly two years ago.
The twins, Strider and Azure, were born in November 2021, just weeks before Musk and Claire Boucher, the musician who performs as Grimes, had their second child via surrogate.
Musk’s complicated personal life has included three marriages and three divorces, including two with the same woman, and seven children from two long-term romances plus the twins with Zilis they fathered via in vitro fertilization.
Elon began dating singer Grimes in April 2018, and the eccentric couple made headlines when they made their red carpet debut at the Met Gala the following month.
In the midst of a series of breakups and reconnections, the couple welcomed their son ‘X AE A-XII’ in May 2020.
With the arrival of their second child Exa Dark Sideræl, who is named Y, via surrogate in December 2021, Grimes shares two of Musk’s nine children.
Y was born just a few weeks after the twins were born with Zilis.

Musk’s other children come from his ex-wife, Canadian author Justine Wilson.
He married his first wife, Justine Wilson, in 2000. Their first son Nevada died tragically after ten weeks in 2002, before the couple welcomed twins Griffin and Xavier in 2004.
Born in Ontario, Canada, Zilis met Musk through OpenAI, the non-profit organization for research and deployment of artificial intelligence that Musk co-founded in 2015, Insider reported.
In 2015, Zilis was listed on Forbes’ 30 Under 30 list in the venture capital category, and in 2017 she joined Musk’s brain chip company Neuralink as director of operations and special projects, according to her LinkedIn profile.
Musk and Zilis filed a petition last April to change the twins’ names so that they “have their father’s last name and their mother’s last name as part of their middle name,” the court documents said.
Walter Isaacson’s photo of Musk, Zilis and the twins was taken at Zilis’ house in Austin, Texas, according to an excerpt from the biography published in Time.
