Grimes slammed "clueless" Elon Musk for sharing photos of her after having a C-section.

The musician, whose real name is Claire Elise Boucher, said that the tech giant sent a picture to some of their closest friends and family, including her dad and brothers.

In a new biography about Musk, author Walter Isaacson, who shadowed the SpaceX CEO for about three years, talked about discussing the sensitive subject with Grimes. She told him at the time: "He was just clueless about why I’d be upset." Isaacson also writes about Elon's 10 surviving children, after one passed away from sudden infant death syndrome at the age of 10 weeks in 2002.

Grimes and Elon reportedly secretly welcomed a third child together, a son named Techno "Tau" Mechanicus. It has not yet been confirmed when their baby was born, but the two of them are already parents to one-year-old daughter Exa Dark Sideræl — whose nickname is "Y" — and 3-year-old son X Æ A-12, who gets called "X" for short.

The now separated couple were together on and off from May 2018 until March 2022, but have remained close since. However, it was just last month that they had a falling out and Grimes took to Twitter last week to slam her ex.

Isaacson shared a photo of the Tesla founder’s twins, Strider and Azure, with Shivon Zilis, as Grimes tweeted back: "Tell Shivon to unblock me and tell Elon to let me see my son or plz respond to my lawyer. I have never even been allowed to see a photo of these children until this moment, despite the situation utterly ripping my family apart."

It is not known which of her sons Grimes was referring to. Musk and Shivon secretly welcomed their twins in November 2021, but they waited nearly a year to share the news.

Grime soon deleted the tweet and took to Twitter just a few days later to "de-escalate the narrative" that there was drama between her and Zilis. She said: "I spoke with Shivon at length finally, which was long overdue. This wasn’t her fault, plz don’t be angry at her! We respect each other a lot and we’re excited to become friends and have the kids grow up together."

She went on to apologise and say that they "both just want what’s best" for their children.
