Grimes has once again publicly urged her former partner, Tesla CEO Elon Musk, to keep their children out of the public eye. The Canadian musician, who shares three children with Musk, expressed her frustration after seeing a viral fake tweet about her kids. In a recent post on social media platform X, Grimes replied to a user asking what she was doing to protect her children from misinformation.
She said, “I have tried begging the public and my kids’ dad to keep them offline, and I’ve tried legal recourse.”
The 36-year-old added, “I, unfortunately, do not control the internet and cannot wipe this from the internet. I follow you here, I’ve seen young [people] destroyed by the internet too.”
Grimes lamented the lack of laws to protect young children’s privacy, writing, “The state of my children’s lives being public is of grave concern to me, and I think about how to solve this every day.
Grimes urges Musk on children’s privacy
It’s insane to me that there’s no way to deal with this.”
She further expressed her concern earlier this week on X: “He should not be in public like this. I did not see this, thank u for alerting me. But I’m glad he was polite. Sigh.”
Grimes has also previously pleaded for people to stop sharing images of her children, stating, “I would really like people to stop posting images of my kid everywhere.
I think fame is something you should consent to.” She emphasized, “Obviously, things will just be what they are. But I would really, really appreciate that. I can only ask, so I’m just asking.”
Grimes’ ongoing battle highlights the broader issue of children’s privacy in the age of the internet, raising important questions about the role of parents and laws in protecting the next generation from unwanted public exposure.
