Grimes gave an update in her custody battle with Ex Elon Musk.

Grimes has hinted that her personal life gets in the way of her music career, writing in August 2023, “I am completely unable to continue to pretend that the situation has been completely okay or that I am not on my last legs and beyond mentally totally destroyed by what has been going on in my personal life. It has deeply affected my work so clear.”

The dispute over their three young children began in September 2023, where Grimes’ mother accused the Tesla billionaire of “withholding” the children and preventing them from visiting their great-grandmother in palliative care. The custody lawsuits that the couple brought against each other were at the end of the day closed from the public, so their status is unclear.

Yesterday, when another X user asked Grimes why she hadn’t been making new music, she replied, “Because the threat of losing your kids while going bankrupt and fighting for them isn’t very conducive to creative thought. I just slept and cried every minute I didn’t explicitly fight for my kids that year.”

Alluding to a potential custody agreement, she continued in another post, “It’s my week without my kids so if you want an answer from me it’s now or every other week after this because … bro I can barely function when I got relatives – Mon -> Fri every two weeks – I am available.”
