Errol Musk Claims Grimes Wanted to Tattoo Their Baby’s Head

Errol Musk, father of billionaire Elon Musk, has made a shocking claim about his son’s ex-girlfriend, Claire “Grimes” Boucher, stating that she wanted to tattoo their child’s head as a baby.

In an exclusive interview with DailyMail, the 79-year-old said:
“She wanted to tattoo the baby’s head… You don’t do that. She is a little nuts.”

Is It a Misunderstanding or More Drama?

While Grimes has not responded to the accusation, some fans speculate Errol may have misinterpreted a joke between Elon and Grimes. In 2020, Musk posted a filtered image of their son, X Æ A-Xii, with digital face tattoos, which some believe Errol mistook as real.

However, this isn’t the first time Errol has criticized Grimes:

• He previously called her music “terrible.”

• He blamed her for the unusual names of his grandchildren.

• He claimed Elon only agreed to the names to please Grimes.

A History of Tension & Custody Battles

Elon and Grimes, who dated on and off from 2018 to 2023, have had a complicated co-parenting dynamic, including a high-profile custody dispute in 2023.

• Elon filed for custody in Texas in September 2023.

• Grimes countersued shortly after.

• The case was finally settled privately in August 2024.

Tensions resurfaced in February when Grimes publicly pleaded for Elon’s help, claiming he was unresponsive during a health crisis involving one of their children.

Elon Stays Silent

As of now, Elon Musk has not addressed Errol’s latest claims or Grimes’ previous concerns over their children’s well-being.
