With the various controversies surrounding Elon Musk, it can be easy to forget he has three oddly named children from his relationship with Grimes.
However, his behavior regarding those children became a viral topic of discussion on X / Twitter, Musk's platform, after the grandmother of those children publicly accused Musk of "withholding" them and refusing to let them see their dying great-grandmother.
In a lengthy thread, Sandy Garossino, the mother of Claire Boucher (aka Grimes), begged Elon Musk to let X Æ A-12, Exa Dark Sideræl Musk and Techno Mechanicus see their great-grandmother, who Garossino describes as being in "end-of-life palliative care." According to the thread, the children were supposed to see the great-grandmother on her birthday, but the trip was canceled because Musk was "withholding them and their needed passport documents from [Boucher]."
Garossino also wondered about who was taking care of the children, since they were not with Boucher while Musk was at the Paris Olympics and making trips to Washington D.C. to reaffirm his desire to fight Mark Zuckerberg, among other things.
She concluded her thread by saying, "Please Elon, I beg you. This is so painful for my mother, and concerning for the kids. Time is of the essence now."
This is not the first time the children's family has gone public about Musk withholding the children from their maternal side. In September last year, Grimes tweeted at Musk biographer Walter Isaacson asking him to get Elon Musk to respond to her lawyer and let her see her son.
It's unknown why both Garassino and Boucher have had to use Twitter / X to beg Musk to see the children – it was reported that Grimes was suing Musk for parental rights in October last year – but it is not the only time a person in Musk's orbit has publicly posted their questions to Musk, as it seems he is difficult to reach but is well-known to constantly be on X.
During the chaotic first months after Musk took over then-Twitter, ex-employee Halli Thorleifsson took to the platform asking Musk for clarification about his employment status after exhausting internal communication channels.
Garossino's thread subsequently went viral on Twitter, with many condemning Musk harshly for his alleged handling of the Grimes/Musk children.
This incident comes shortly after Vivian Wilson_, Musk's trans daughter, went viral on Threads last week for discussing her childhood in regards to her estranged father, who recently described Vivian as a "son" he lost to the "woke mind virus."
Wilson claimed Musk was making up stories about her childhood to make himself appear sympathetic when in reality, he was nearly completely absentee and made fun of her for feminine traits as a toddler.
