00:00 Grimes sets the record straight after alleging Elon Musk won't let her see her son.
00:04 On September 6th, writer Walter Isaacson, who has penned an upcoming biography of the Tesla CEO,
00:11 shared a photo of Elon with Neuralink executive Siobhan Zillis and the pair's 19-month-old twins
00:16 on X, formerly known as Twitter. The following day, Grimes said on the platform in a now-deleted
00:22 post, "Tell Siobhan to unblock me and tell Elon to let me see my son or please respond to my lawyer.
00:27 I have never even been allowed to see a photo of these children until this moment,
00:32 despite the situation utterly ripping my family apart." Grimes and Elon share three children
00:37 together, son X, daughter Exa, and a third child, a son named Technomechanicus. Techno's existence is
00:44 revealed in Isaacson's biography, as the couple had kept news of his arrival private. In a September
00:50 10th post, the singer seems to clarify the situation, telling followers, "Hey, I would prefer
00:54 not to breathe any more life into this current press cycle, but I want to de-escalate the narrative
00:59 at the moment." Grimes explains, "I spoke with Siobhan at length finally, which was long overdue.
01:04 This wasn't her fault. Please don't be angry at her. We respect each other a lot and we're excited
01:09 to become friends and have the kids grow up together." She also has a message for Walter
01:14 Isaacson, saying, "I truly apologize for responding to Walter like that. As you can imagine, that was
01:20 a very gut-level reaction to a thing that has been very hard for me. Communication about the twins
01:25 wasn't handled super well in the past, but I now totally understand what happened and totally
01:30 forgive the situation." She adds, "Women are so often pitted against each other. Speaking with
01:35 Siobhan, it's very evident she's an amazing human, and we both just want what's best for our kids."
01:40 The songwriter also reflects on their latest addition, saying, "I wish I could show you how
01:46 cute little Tecno is, but my priority right now is keeping my babies out of the public eye."
01:50 Shortly after Grimes shared her note, Siobhan also confirms that all is well between the two.
01:56 She responds, "At the end of the day, it all ended up for the best. Thank you for taking the time to
02:01 really connect and understand each other. So glad we had such a wonderful talk. Was insanely overdue.
02:06 You're a total badass, and I respect you very much as well."
02:10 "I'm so proud of you. I'm so proud of you."
