Elon Musk’s ex-girlfriend Grimes has claimed he won’t let her see their children and has become ‘unrecognizable’ since teaming up with Donald Trump.
The singer revealed that she was in a year-long custody battle with the father of their three children, during which time she reportedly did not see one of her children for five months.
The former couple share two sons, X Æ A-Xii and Techno Mechanicus, as well as a daughter Exa Dark Sideræl together.
The bitter dispute has now been settled Business insider reports, although no details of the scheme have been made public.
Musk and Grimes dated from 2018 to 2022, but lately the X owner has become a prominent figure in the MAGA sphere.
He was pictured celebrating with the president-elect at Mar-a-Lago with son X by his side and has been formally appointed to oversee the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Grimes, real name Clare Boucher, revealed she was baffled by his rightward shift and claimed she was struggling during their ongoing custody battle in Texas.
“Spent a year in a battle in a state with terrible maternal rights, with my Instagram posts and modeling used as reasons why I shouldn’t have children, and I fought and broke away from the love of my life, while he becomes unrecognizable to me, with a fraction of his resources (or IQ/strategy experience),” she wrote on X.

‘All this time I haven’t seen one of my babies for five months. And this is only what we can say publicly, as most of my experiences over the years should remain behind closed doors.”
The statement is believed to refer in part to Musk’s disowning his transgender daughter Vivian Jenna, whom he shares with his first wife Justine Wilson.
Grimes previously stated that Musk’s anti-trans comments were “not his heart” and she shared public support for Vivian Jenna.
Musk has filed a lawsuit for custody of the children he shares with Grimes in Texas, where his headquarters are located.
Grimes then counterclaimed by filing a claim “petition to establish parental relationship” in a California court, usually seen as the first step in suing for custody of unmarried parents.
She alleged that Musk denied her children access and even prevented them from seeing their terminally ill maternal grandmother.
A Travis County clerk confirmed this that the Texas dispute had been settled, but declined to provide further details.
Grimes claimed the ordeal nearly left her “bankrupt” and unable to make new music.

“I just slept and cried every minute that I wasn’t explicitly fighting for my kids that year,” she said.
This is not the first time that the artist has used her ex-partner’s platform to confront him over custody issues.
She previously appealed to the mother of several of Musk’s other children, Neuralink director Shivon Zilis, pleading for her help in reaching Musk.
Zilis is the mother of Musk’s children, twins Strider and Azure, and a child they welcomed earlier this year who has not yet been publicly named.
Musk has a total of twelve children by three women. Wilson is the mother of his six eldest children: twins Vivian Jenna and Griffin and triplets Kai, Saxon and Damian, all welcomed via IVF.
The couple had another daughter Nevada, who tragically died of cot death when he was ten weeks old.
Musk has expressed his desire for a large family and regularly expresses concerns about the plummeting birth rate in various countries around the world.
He recently warned Australians about their record low birth rates.
