Grimes said in an interview published this week that her on-again, off-again partner Elon Musk — the world's richest person — sometimes lived "below the poverty line." Speaking with Vanity Fair , the musician recalled how they had once found a hole in her side of the mattress while living in Los Angeles. Instead of buying a new one, she said, Musk suggested that they bring over the mattress from her home instead. "Like, bro wouldn't even get a new mattress," she told the publication. "Bro does not live like a billionaire. Bro lives at times below the poverty line," Grimes said, per Vanity Fair. "To the point where I was like, can we not live in a very insecure $40,000 house? Where the neighbors, like, film us, and there's no security, and I'm eating peanut butter for eight days in a row?" In May 2020, Musk tweeted that he would be selling all his possessions and would "own no house." He is believed to be living in a $50,000 prefab tiny home , which he rents from SpaceX . Grimes also told Vanity Fair about how dating the richest person in the world made her feel "trapped between two worlds." "I mean, when people say I'm a class traitor that is not an inaccurate description," she said, per the outlet. "I was deeply from the far left and I converted to being essentially a capitalist Democrat. A lot of people are understandably upset." In the same interview, Grimes said she and Musk had a secret second child together, a baby girl they call "Y." The couple's older son, X Æ A-Xii — pronounced "X A.I. Archangel" — was born in May 2020. Y, whose name is Exa Dark Sideræl Musk, was conceived via a surrogate and is Musk's seventh child. Musk told Page Six in September that he and Grimes had broken up after three years of dating . The billionaire has recently been spotted with the Australian actor Natasha Bassett .businessinsider.com
