Elon Musk, the billionaire chief executive of Tesla and SpaceX, has revealed that he and his girlfriend, Canadian singer Grimes, are 'semi-separated' after three years together.
According to a report by Page Six on September 24, 2021, the pair, who began dating in May 2018, remain on good terms and are co-parenting their one-year-old son, X Æ A-Xii Musk.
"We are semi-separated but still love each other, see each other frequently and are on great terms," Musk said in a statement.
He attributed their semi-separated status to his work commitments at SpaceX and Tesla, which require him to be primarily in Texas or traveling overseas, while Grimes' work is primarily in LA.
"She's staying with me now and Baby X is in the adjacent room," Musk added.
