But it looks like things have changed for the two as Grimes confirmed that she and Elon added to their family and were blessed with a daughter.

In an interview with Vanity Fair Cover Story, the musician said she didn't know what she was thinking of while trying to conceal the baby after she started crying during the interview.

Grimes tried to keep baby news private

This was after the journalist who was crying as she had already mentioned that her son was with Elon.

"She’s a little colicky too. I don’t know. I don’t know what I was thinking,” she said.

When asked about her current relationship with the SpaceX owner, Grimes responded:

"I would probably refer to him as my boyfriend, but we’re very fluid. We live in separate houses. We’re best friends. We see each other all the time. We just have our own thing going on, and I don’t expect other people to understand it. This is the best it’s ever been. We just need to be free.”

The 34-year-old artist and her 50-year-old lover named their daughter Exa Dark Sideræl but nicknamed her Y because it follows their first child's name.

How to pronounce the baby's name

Speaking with Vanity Fair, Grimes explained the new baby's name which would naturally cause some confusion.

While "Exa" and Dark are pronounced as expected, Grimes explained that "Sideræl" is pronounced, “sigh-deer-ee-el.”
