Secret Third Child with Grimes Revealed in Elon Musk’s Latest Biography

Elon Musk’s impending biography penned by Walter Isaacson revealed that Musk and the avant-garde musician Claire Boucher, known as Grimes, reportedly had their third secret child.

The CEO of Tesla and the founder of SpaceX, Elon Musk, has always been a figure under the spotlight. However, his personal life, especially his relationship with Grimes, has also garnered significant attention. The couple has recently welcomed their third offspring, a son affectionately named Techno Mechanicus, who also bears the nickname “Tau”. Details regarding the birth specifics, such as the exact date and place, remain undisclosed in the initial snippets from the upcoming biography.

This addition to the family marks their third child, following their first son, X Æ A-12, born on May 4, 2020. This distinctive name later underwent a slight modification to X Æ A-Xii, with the couple fondly nicknaming him “X”. Musk and Grimes expanded their family further when they embraced a second child, Exa Dark Siderael or “Y”, born through surrogacy in December 2021. This event occurred shortly after the couple’s publicized separation, which followed a three-year romantic journey. Despite their separation, Grimes hinted at their desire for a larger family during an interview with Vanity Fair in March 2022, expressing their mutual wish to have “three or four” children.

The Larger Canvas of Musk’s Paternity Journey

Elon Musk, whose journey into fatherhood predates his relationship with Grimes, has fathered six other children from his previous marriage to Canadian author Justine Wilson. Their firstborn, Nevada Alexander, tragically passed away at 10 weeks, succumbing to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) in 2002.

Following this heartbreak, the couple welcomed a set of twins, Griffin and Vivian Jenna Wilson, into their lives. Vivian, who recently turned 18, has initiated legal procedures to alter her name and gender, expressing a wish to discontinue her association with Musk, as reported by People.

2005, the family expanded with twins, followed swiftly by triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian in 2006. As per court documents unveiled by Insider on July 6, Musk fathered another set of twins, Strider and Azure, with Shivon Zilis in November 2021, a development that occurred shortly before the birth of his daughter with Grimes.

In a recent interview with Wired, Grimes emphasized her dedication to co-parenting despite their separate paths. She stressed her intention to foster a nurturing relationship with her children, balancing the role of a disciplinarian and a confidant. Grimes expressed optimism that, despite potential challenges, her bond with her children would withstand the tests of time, nurturing hopes that they would appreciate their family culture in the long run.
