According to a series of recent tweets, it looks like Canadian musician Grimes had no choice but to use the social media platform X in a public attempt to contact Elon Musk over a “medical crisis” involving one of their children.
Grimes, real name Claire Boucher, shares several children with Musk. The singer took to X on Thursday to publicly plead for Musk’s “immediate attention” in regards to what appears to be an illness involving one of their children. The specific child was not noted in the post.
“Plz respond about our child’s medical crisis,” Grimes wrote. “I am sorry to do this publicly but it is no longer acceptable to ignore this situation. This requires immediate attention. If you don’t want to talk to me can you please designate or hire someone who can so that we can more [sic] forward on solving this. This is urgent, Elon.”
When a fan responded to her initial post, Grimes responded that she would not reveal “any details”. However, she did note that Musk “won’t respond to texts calls or emails and has skipped every meeting.” She also went on to say that their child would suffer “lifelong impairment” if Musk did not get in touch with her as soon as possible.
“If I have to apply public pressure then I guess that’s where we are at,” Grimes continued.
For reference, Grimes and Musk were involved in an off-and-on relationship starting in 2018 through 2022. The two share three children together. The pair have also been at odds in a years-long parental rights dispute. Grimes once said that she hadn’t seen one of her children for five months amidst the custody battle.
Neither Grimes nor Musk have elaborated on the child who is dealing with the serious medical crisis in question.
Grimes is Apparently Shadowbanned on X, According to Posts
Elon Musk has not responded to Grimes via X, which he also happens to own. In addition to being left in the dark, it appears that her posts have also been shadowbanned, according to another user.
As of today, February 21, it looks like Grimes deleted her original pleas for contact.
“I am deleting them now because if they’re being shadow banned and not eliciting a response then all it is is a media circus at the expense of the kids,” Grimes replied to the above-embedded tweet.
