Grimes Speaks Out About Custody Struggles with Elon Musk

The singer alleges a year-long legal battle over their three children, claiming it kept her from one child for five months.

Grimes, real name Claire Boucher, claims she went five months without seeing one of her three children with Elon Musk during their custody dispute.
The singer alleges her social media activity and modeling work were used against her in a state she describes as having poor protections for mothers' rights.
She describes Musk, once the 'love of her life,' as now 'unrecognizable,' highlighting the disparity in resources between them during the legal battle.
The custody battle, which began in 2023 with lawsuits in both Texas and California, was reportedly resolved in August 2024, though details remain private.
Despite the challenges, Grimes says the experience has deeply influenced her personal growth and creativity, which she is channeling into her music.
