On social media, many viewers stunned after Grimes reacts to her son’s unexpected TV appearance.
Grimes expresses frustration over son’s public appearance
Ex-girlfriend Elon Musk, Grimes has criticized her ex-boyfriend Elon Musk after their son, X AE A-XII, appeared on television during a White House press conference.
The singer, whose real name is Claire Elise Boucher, voiced her disapproval on social media. She admitted she had no prior knowledge of their four-year-old son’s presence at the event.
The relationship between Elon Musk and Grimes gained attention despite their breakup. Previously, Grimes and Musk began dating in 2018. They share three children: X AE A-XII, Exa Dark Sideræl, and Techno Mechanicus.
Although the couple has since separated, Musk continues to involve their children in public events.
While, Grimes has distanced herself from the billionaire, recently stating that she is “not him” after Musk was accused of making a controversial gesture at a rally for Donald Trump.
X AE A-XII appears at the White House with Musk
X AE A-XII, nicknamed Little X, was seen playing in the background of the Oval Office while Musk attended the event.
Musk, now head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), was present to witness Trump sign an executive order aimed at reducing federal costs.
On social media, many viewers expressed their shock that X AE A-XII appeared at the White House. While, others also criticized Elon, suggesting that he used his son to gain attention.
Additionally, others claimed that X AE A-XII was too young to attend a political event.
However, viewers took note of the child’s behavior, describing him as “polite” and “well-mannered.”
One Twitter user praised Grimes for raising him well, recalling how he told Trump, “Please forgive me, I need to pee.”
One person said: They should have their children there more often! Its wonderful to see children in th W.H. Good for you Elon! A very well behaved young man and a little cutie pie too!
A second wrote: Young man was well behaved.
While a third commented: Everyone has kids. The Oval Office is not the time and place. Bring a caregiver to occupy your son while you’re with the President.
Another added: Using his kid as a prop and a shield.
Someone else said: Great bonding! He is adorable!
Grimes reacts to her son’s unexpected TV appearance
Despite the praise, Grimes was displeased with her son’s presence on national television. She responded to the post, saying, “He should not be in public like this. I did not see this, thank you for alerting me. But I’m glad he was polite. Sigh.”
The original poster later apologized, clarifying they “didn’t mean to cause trouble” and noting that Little X was well-dressed and cared for.
Musk has previously involved his son in public events
This was not the first time Musk had brought his son to a public setting. Little X has previously appeared on stage at a rally and in an interview with right-wing commentator Tucker Carlson.
While Musk continues to expose their child to the public eye, Grimes appears to prefer a more private upbringing. Her latest reaction suggests an ongoing disagreement over their son’s media presence.
