Elon Musk and Grimes have called off their relationship, three years after shocking the world with their unlikely yet fitting pairing.
Though it's unclear whose decision it was, the 50-year-old SpaceX founder is the one who made the announcement.
"We are semi-separated but still love each other, see each other frequently and are on great terms," Musk told Page Six on Friday. "It's mostly that my work at SpaceX and Tesla requires me to be primarily in Texas or traveling overseas and her work is primarily in LA. She's staying with me now and Baby X is in the adjacent room."
The 33-year-old Canadian musician gave birth to the now-former couple's son, X Æ A-Xii Musk, last May – two years after they started dating.
Musk and Grimes – real name Claire Elise Boucher – were last seen together shortly after this year's Met Gala in New York City, which took place last Monday.
Grimes walked the red carpet alone, even though Musk attended the event. She was, however, present for his star-studded after party.
Days later, the second richest person in the world tried to go incognito, hiding from the paparazzi after a woman claiming to be his half-sister came forward and insisted that her late mother was Errol Musk's mistress in the 1970s.
