Singer Grimes lashed out at her ex-partner Elon Musk as she took to social media to accuse him of having previously blocked her on his own social media platform X

Grimes has hit out at ex-partner Elon Musk, claiming he blocked her on his social media platform X. The musician, who has three children with the Tesla Motors CEO, responded after an X user noticed she no longer appeared to follow Musk on the site. Taking to social media, Grimes clarified the situation for her followers.

She wrote, “For context I am just living my life. He followed me and unblocked me. I am not gna be following and unfollowing. My only priority is co-parenting. I am not interested in public dramatics. It is so silly lol [sic].”

Back in 2021, Musk revealed they were “semi-separated” while continuing to raise their first child together, X Æ A-Xii Musk, who was born in 2020. Despite this, the pair welcomed two more children: daughter Exa Dark Sideræl, born via surrogate in December 2021, and son Techno Mechanicus in June 2022.

Though the precise nature of their current relationship remains unclear, the former couple has a history of public disagreements. As recently as last month, Grimes delivered a stark eight-word warning about the X owner and the “imminent threat” posed by a man she “can’t control” when it comes to their children.

The artist, whose birth name is Claire Elise Boucher, expressed her view that “the biggest imminent threat is just outsourcing thinking”, in reference to AI services. Her ex and billionaire SpaceX owner has embedded several types of AI into the social media site X.

Back in February, he declared Grok 3 is “the smartest AI on Earth” during a presentation on X. Asserting that studies have demonstrated AI “atrophies the brain,” she told Doomscroll’s Joshua Citarella, referring to AI, “I’m tired of experimenting on kids, you know, smoking, McDonald’s, and now we’re gonna do it with this?”.

Musk’s platform, featuring both text and image-based AI, is accessible to anyone aged 13 and above. Currently, no age verification system exists when creating an X account.

While the mother-of-three believes AI could potentially cause kids to “die”, conversely, she also expresses enthusiasm about a forthcoming AI revolution. Grimes added, “In some ways I can’t wait for super-intelligence – in some ways I can’t wait. It’s not as easy since I’ve had kids.”

Back in October 2023, Grimes submitted a petition seeking to establish parental rights for all three children, based on online documents reviewed by PEOPLE. Subsequently, in November 2024, the artist revealed she had postponed releasing fresh music due to being caught up in a custody dispute with Musk.

“Spent a year locked in battle in a state with terrible mothers rights having my instagram posts and modelling used as reasons I shouldn’t have my kids and fighting and detaching from the love if my life as he comes unrecognisable to me, with a fraction of his resources (or iq/strategy experience),” she wrote on X at the time. “All the while I didn’t see one of my babies for 5 months,” she added, noting, “And this is only what can be said publicly, since most of my experience these last years should remain behind closed doors.”

Several months later, Grimes expressed her frustration with Musk’s parenting after he took their eldest child, X, who was 4 years old at the time, to the Oval Office on February 11. Shortly afterward, Grimes revealed that she had been unaware of her son’s public appearance and only discovered it through an X user.
