Elon Musk took the unconventional approach while pursuing his romantic interest, Grimes, by demonstrating his Tesla’s Autopilot feature with a hands-free drive in a sneak peek from Walter Isaacson’s upcoming tell-all book about the tech mogul. Isaacson, who spent over a year shadowing Musk, revealed that the billionaire invited the “spellbinding performing artist” to dinner after connecting online in 2018. During their drive to a restaurant, Musk accelerated the car and then removed his hands from the wheel, covered his eyes, and allowed Grimes to experience Autopilot. Grimes, shocked by his actions, told Isaacson, “I was like, oh sh-t, this guy is f–king crazy.” Isaacson described their relationship as a “chaotic new subplot.”
Their three-year romance began with Musk giving Grimes a pop quiz about “Lord of the Rings,” and in return, Grimes gifted Musk a box of animal bones, highlighting the unique dynamics of their courtship. Isaacson also revealed that Musk and Grimes had initially met in an elevator when Musk was accompanied by his then-girlfriend, Amber Heard.
Despite their initial meeting, Musk reached out to Grimes a year later via Twitter, the platform he now owns, after learning about their shared interest in Roko’s basilisk. The duo’s first date took place at Musk’s Tesla factory in California, where they spent the entire night walking the factory floor as Musk attempted to fix things. This courtship continued the next day with Musk picking up Grimes for dinner in his Tesla. During their time together, Grimes compared Musk to Gandalf from “Lord of the Rings,” which prompted Musk to test her knowledge about the epic tale. Grimes passed the trivia test, which mattered to Musk. As a gift, Grimes presented Musk with a box of animal bones she had collected. Before bed, the couple would listen to history podcasts and audiobooks.
Their relationship resulted in two children, namely X Æ A-12 Musk, born in May 2020, and a girl named Exa Dark Sideræl Musk, born via surrogate in December 2021. Grimes and Musk separated in September 2021 but allegedly reconnected after the birth of their daughter, Exa Dark, whom they refer to as Y. Grimes, 17 years younger than Musk, had previously given birth to Æ A-12 Musk, making Musk a father to nine children with three different women.
In March, Grimes announced their breakup on Twitter, describing Musk as her best friend and the love of her life. Despite the separation, Musk’s life and art remain dedicated to “The Mission,” as stated by Grimes.
