Elon Musk and Grimes have ended their custody dispute in Texas

  • The Travis County clerk’s office told BI Elon Musk and Grimes have ended their custody dispute.
  • Musk sued Grimes in the Texas court last year, and Grimes countersued in San Francisco.
  • They met at least once in court in Texas over the summer.

Elon Musk and Grimes’ legal dispute in Texas over their three children has been resolved.

The Clerk’s office in Travis County, the Texas locale where Musk first filed suit, confirmed on Wednesday that a judge issued a final order in August. The office said the status was listed as “closed” but declined to provide further details.

Representatives for Musk and Grimes did not respond to a request for comment.

The former couple had been in an ongoing battle over custody of their three children: 4-year-old X Æ A-12, also known as baby X; 2-year-old Exa; and 2-year-old Tau.

Musk first filed the custody lawsuit against Grimes in September 2023. Grimes filed her own countersuit against the billionaire in a San Francisco court that same month. A representative from the San Francisco Superior Court said they could not share information about the case due to its restricted status.

Grimes, whose legal name is Claire Boucher, and Musk met in court in August 2024, and the two parties’ legal representation met at least one more time in court before the case was resolved.

The case was sealed to the public in December 2023. The judge agreed to close the courtroom to the press and public only minutes after a hearing began.

It’s unclear how the lawsuit was resolved. On Wednesday, Grimes said on X that she has custody of the children every other week.
