Are on-and-off-again exes Elon Musk and Grimes set to enjoy a romantic Italian reunion?

The former couple were both seen enjoying a getaway in the picturesque town of Portofino this week – when the musician was spotted strolling through the streets with their three-year-old son X, while the billionaire Tesla founder enjoyed a meal with his teenage son Saxon just a few feet away.

The former flames – who first got together in 2018, welcomed two kids together, and broke up and got back together numerous times before ultimately splitting in March 2022 – are said to have both attended the wedding of billionaire venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya and his longtime girlfriend, Nathalie Dompé, this week.

According to an onlooker, the exes are currently staying at the same lavish hotel in the Italian seaside village, but it’s unclear whether or not they spent any time together.

Photographers caught the Tesla creator, 52, dining with his 17-year-old son Saxon, whom he shares with ex Justine Wilson, at the restaurant of the resort on Tuesday.

Doting mom Grimes wore a cut-out, turtleneck, red dress and chunky black boots to the nuptials.

At one point, the singer – who was surrounded by bodyguards – picked little X up and carried him.

The toddler was dressed in brown shorts and a blue, button-down top.

Grimes left her long, blonde hair in loose waves around her face, and accessorized with dark shades and an eye-popping spikey necklace.

Elon and Grimes first started dating in April 2018, and a source told Page Six at the time that they connected online ‘through a joke about artificial intelligence that Elon had planned to tweet, but discovered Grimes had already made.’

However, rumors started to swirl that they had split by that fall, after the pair unfollowed each other on Twitter.

But Grimes insisted that they were still together during a March 2019 interview with Wall Street Journal.

Then, in January 2020, she announced that she was pregnant with their first 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 via Instagram, when she shared a pic of her 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 bump, with no caption.

They then welcomed their son in May of the same year.

However, in September 2021, Elon told Page Six that they were ‘semi-separated’ but insisted they were ‘still in love.’

‘We are semi-separated but still love each other, see each other frequently and are on great terms,’ he said.

‘It’s mostly that my work at SpaceX and Tesla requires me to be primarily in Texas or traveling overseas and her work is primarily in LA. She’s staying with me now and Baby X is in the adjacent room.’

Then, in March 2022, the pair revealed that they had secretly welcomed a second 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 together via surrogate – a 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 girl who they named Exa Dark Sideræl, or ‘Y’ for short – the previous December.

At the time, Grimes also referred to the billionaire mogul as her ‘boyfriend’ while chatting with Vanity Fair, hinting that they were a couple again.

But hours after the interview came out, Grimes took to Twitter to state that they had broken up again since she spoke to the publication.

She said in the interview: ‘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.’

Both Grimes and Elon noted to the outlet that their current separate living situation is the best for both of them, explaining that they each have very different needs and likes when it comes to creating a home.

While Elon likes things to be ‘reasonably neat,’ Grimes is described as taking a more creative, artistic approach to her home.

She also enjoys Japanese art and anime, which the businessman explained he ‘doesn’t like.’

Hours after the magazine was released, she tweeted: ‘Me and E have broken up *again* since the writing of this article. But he’s my best friend and the love of my life.’

In June 2022, it was revealed that Elon had quietly welcomed another set of twins with Shivon Zilis, one of his top executives, in November – weeks before he and Grimes had their daughter

Elon previously welcomed twins Griffin and Xavier – who has since changed her name to Vivian – now 19, in 2004, and triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian, now 17, in 2006 with his ex Justine

Elon (seen with Saxon in Italy) has been in the hot seat since he purchased Twitter and started making a slew of changes to the social media platform

He recently rebranded it to X – a move that sparked immense backlash online

Elon previously welcomed twins Griffin and Xavier, now 19, in 2004, and triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian, now 17, in 2006 with his ex Justine. All five of the 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren were conceived via IVF.

The couple faced tragedy when they lost their 10-week old son, Nevada Alexander, in 2002, when he died of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).

In April 2022, Xavier submitted a legal petition to change her gender to female and her name to Vivian, which was approved that June.

She also dropped her father’s famous surname and took her mother’s maiden name – after telling a court that she ‘no longer wishes to be related’ to Elon ‘in any way.’

In June 2022, it was brought to light that Elon had quietly welcomed another set of twins with Shivon Zilis, one of his top executives, in November – just weeks before he and Grimes had their daughter.

Shivon is the director of operations at Musk’s brain-machine interface company Neuralink.

That same month, Elon briefly sparked dating rumors with Australian actress Natasha Bassett when they were spotted cozying up in St. Tropez, but it was reported that they had split in late July.
