Musk appeared unphased as he and another person exited the building. The Tesla CEO — who’s worth has been reported as high as $195 billion — looked casual with a jacket over his t-shirt and one hand in his pocket.

“We are semi-separated but still love each other, see each other frequently and are on great terms,” he told us, adding that his work with Space X in Texas keeps him traveling while she is “primarily in LA.”

“She’s staying with me now and Baby X is in the adjacent room,” he shared.

Musk and Grimes’ last appearance together was at the Met Gala in New York earlier this month. Though Grimes walked the red carpet alone, Musk later joined her inside the event.

They were photographed leaving the Big Apple together with their dog two days later.

Ironically, the Met Gala is also where the estranged couple marked their first public appearance together in 2018.

Two years into their relationship, Musk and Grimes welcomed a son together in May 2020. The tech guru originally shared the news on Twitter while responding to questions about EPA testing for the Tesla S model.

The couple baffled fans when they announced they named their son X Æ A-12 Musk.

While Baby X is Grimes’ first child, Musk shares five sons with this ex-wife, author Justine Wilson: twins Griffin and Xavier and triplets Damian, Saxon and Kai.
