Elon Musk and Grimes share first photos of their newborn using ‘face tattoo’ filter – and claim he’s called ‘X Æ A-12’ – The Sun

ELON Musk shared the first photos of his newborn son with singer Grimes on Twitter on Tuesday.

The Tesla CEO, 48, posted a cute snap of their sleeping baby using a face tattoo filter, as well as one of him cradling the newborn at the hospital.

Responding to a fan who said their son is "gorgeous", Elon joked about the tattoos: "Thanks 🙂 Never too young for some ink haha."

The South African tech mogul, who has five sons from his previous marriage, looked every inch the doting dad as he cuddled his newborn, who was swaddled in blankets.

When Elon's followers pressed him for a name, he joked that the newborn is called "X Æ A-12 Musk."

The name appeared to be partially inspired by one of the songs from 32-year-old Grimes' last album – 4ÆM.



Grimes gave birth to their baby on Monday, with Elon announcing that "mom and baby are all good".

The Canadian singer and producer – real name Claire Elise Boucher – announced she was pregnant back in January with a photo in which a baby appeared to be superimposed on her stomach.

She wrote: "I thought about censoring them [her nipples] for a hot minute haha (this may get taken down anyway) but the photo is so much less feral without the nipples.

"Plus being knocked up is a very feral & war-like state of being. Might as well be what it is."



But Grimes ended up taking down the uncensored photo and reposting it with her nipples blurred out.

She captioned the snap: "Censored for insta haha – almost got away w it."

It is Grimes' first child, while Elon already has five children of his own – Nevada, Griffin, Kai, Xavier, Saxon, and Damien.

The couple reportedly started dating in March 2018.

The first time they appeared in public together was at the Met Gala on May 7, 2018.

The birth of their first child together comes after Elon Musk announced in a series of bizarre tweets on Friday he would sell "almost all" of his physical possessions and "will own no house".

He admitted to his 33 million followers that Grimes is "mad at him" for selling off his stuff.

"I am selling almost all physical possessions. Will own no house," he wrote.

"My gf @Grimezsz is mad at me."

Elon – who has taken a pay cut amid the coronavirus crisis – appeared to send a caveat about the second home to future buyers on Twitter.

"Just one stipulation on sale: I own Gene Wilder's old house. I cannot be torn down or lose any (sic) its soul," Musk tweeted on Friday.

True to his word, two of the entrepreneur's California properties appeared on the real estate website Zillow for a combined asking price of $39.5 million.

One of the properties is a 20,000 foot Bel Air mansion Elon originally bought for $17 million.

The sprawling home includes seven bedrooms, a two-story library, swimming pool, and a tennis court.

The second home on the market is on the same street, had a $9.5 million price tag, and once belonged to actor Gene Wilder.
