Grimes Opens Up About Motherhood’s Impact on Her Identity
Singer Grimes, 36, shared intimate insights on X, revealing how motherhood altered her life.
“Since becoming pregnant, my focus shifted from technical skills to reading, writing and creativity, but my connection to queerness diminished,” Grimes wrote.
When a fan suggested her relationship with Elon Musk influenced this shift, Grimes countered, “Logically, being with him should amplify my queerness.”
Grimes (Claire Boucher) and Musk, 53, co-parent sons X Æ A-12 (4), Techno Mechanicus (2) and daughter Exa Dark Sideræl (2). Their complex custody battle unfolds.
