Grimes is reportedly suing her ex, Elon Musk, over a matter involving their three children, according to court records from Friday obtained by Page Six.

Grimes, whose real name is Claire Boucher, filed a “petition to establish parental relationship” in a California court, per the outlet. The request reportedly intends to have the court identify the legal parents of a child born during their split.

The docket for the case is public but the filings have been sealed, according to the outlet. This kind of petition is typically filed to establish a child’s legal parents if they are unmarried or to seek custody or child support, according to WPTV. Musk has reportedly not yet responded to Grimes’ petition, and she has yet to request child support or custody rights, Page Six noted.

The petition comes a few weeks after the Canadian singer pleaded with Musk on Twitter, to allow her to see their son, according to Page Six.

She reportedly responded to a post by Walter Isaacson, author of the biography “Elon Musk,” who shared photos of Musk with his twins with Shivon Zilis. “Tell Shivon to unblock me and tell Elon to let me see my son or plz respond to my lawyer,” she wrote in a now-deleted post, according to Page Six. “I have never even been allowed to see a photo of these children until this moment, despite the situation utterly ripping my family apart.”

Days later, she revealed she and Zilis talked it out and resolved their issues, per the outlet.

Grimes, 35, and Musk, 52, began dating in 2018 and dated on and off until their split in September 2021. She gave birth to their firstborn, named X Æ A-Xii, in May 2020. The couple welcomed their daughter, Exa Dark Sideræl, aka Y, via surrogate in December 2021. (RELATED: ‘He Was Just Clueless’: Grimes Alleges Elon Musk Acted Inappropriately As She Was Giving Birth)

In September, it was revealed by Isaacson that the couple secretly had a third child named Tau Techno Mechanicus, per the outlet. Musk confirmed the birth of their child on Twitter by responding to a post by Pop Base.

Despite their split, Grimes described their relationship status as “very fluid,” according to CNN.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
