Canadian singer Grimes, who has three children with Elon Musk, begged him online Thursday to return her messages about one of their children regarding a pressing medical issue.

The 36-year-old posted on Musk’s platform X that she had tried to no avail to reach him. The message was eventually deleted.

Independent journalist Ken Klippenstein was among numerous X users who screen-shotted the message.

“Plz respond about our child’s medical crisis,” she wrote. “I am sorry to do this publicly but it is no longer acceptable to ignore this situation. This requires immediate attention. If you don’t want to talk to me can you please designate or hire someone who can so that we can move forward on solving this. This is urgent, Elon.”

The singer offered no additional details regarding the matter. One of Musk’s children with Grimes – their son X – was in the White House with Musk last week during a joint media conference with President Donald Trump.

At the time of the message, Musk was at the annual CPAC convention, where he brandished a golden chainsaw onstage and declared he was living a “meme.”

Musk was called out in a New York Post report last Saturday by conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair, who claimed Musk fathered her son but had been ghosting her.

The 26-year-old said Musk had not publicly claimed paternity of the boy and that attempts to reach him before she went public with the information had gone unanswered.

A representative for St. Clair released the following statement:

We are waiting for Elon to publicly acknowledge his parental role with Ashley, to end unwarranted speculation, and Ashley trusts that Elon intends to finish their agreement quickly, in the best interests of the wellbeing and security of the child they share.
