Grimes’ 4-year-old son with Musk was seen making faces and grabbing at his father during a press conference in the White House

Grimes is advocating for her son’s privacy amid his father Elon Musk’s new role in politics.

Musk, 53, brought their son X Æ A-Xii, 4, to the Oval Office on Tuesday, Feb. 11, to witness President Donald Trump sign an executive order granting the Department of Government Efficiency more power.

As Musk took questions from reporters and defended DOGE’s controversial actions, X Æ A-Xii was seen making faces and grabbing at his father in front of cameras.

Grimes, who shares three children with Musk, revealed afterward that she wasn’t aware of her son’s public moment, only learning about the Oval Office appearance through a random X user.

“He should not be in public like this,” the singer wrote on X. “I did not see this, thank u for alerting me. But I’m glad he was polite. Sigh.”

Her sentiments came in response to the X user writing under one of her posts, “Lil X was very polite today! You raised him well. He was so cute when he told DJT ‘please forgive me, I need to pee.’ “

Following Grimes’ split from Musk in 2022, she has repeatedly distanced herself from her ex-boyfriend, with whom she shares children X Æ A-Xii, Exa Dark Sideræl and Techno Mechanicus.

When Musk made a one-armed gesture that heavily resembled a Nazi salute in January, Grimes shared a lengthy post on X — which Musk notably bought in 2022 and renamed from the original, Twitter — denouncing Nazism but defending herself.

“It’s absurd that someone can be this cancelled for something their ex did before they even heard it happened,” she wrote. “I am not him. I will not make a statement every time he does something. I can only send love back into a world that is hurting.”

She added, “To be clear i could go talk s— and be on a bunch of magazine covers and be a feminist hero and get clout – but it would serve no purpose. I choose my children’s wellbeing.”
