The exes made headlines once again on Thursday, February 20, as Grimes admitted on social media she was having no luck getting in contact with the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to talk about one of their children being ill.

"Plz respond about our child’s medical crisis. I am sorry to do this publicly but it is no longer acceptable to ignore this situation," she tweeted but then deleted, referring to X or one of the two other children they had together, Exa Dark Sideræl, 3, and Techno Mechanicus, 2.

"This requires immediate attention," the mom-of-three continued. "If you don’t want to talk to me can you please designate or hire someone who can so that we can move forward on solving this. This is urgent, Elon."

Prior to this month, it was believed Musk had a total of 12 children, but on February 14, a woman named Ashley St. Clair shockingly revealed she gave birth to a child with the mogul last year.

"Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father," she stated. "I have not previously disclosed this to protect our child's privacy and safety, but in recent days it has become clear that tabloid media intends to do so, regardless of the harm it will cause."

"I intend to allow our child to grow in a normal and safe environment," the influencer added. "For that reason, I ask that the media honor our child's privacy, and refrain from invasive reporting."

Musk has allegedly had no part in raising their baby, and on Friday, February 21, she filed for sole custody.
