Claire “Grimes” Boucher has taken to Instagram to reveal her new romantic involvement with DJ Anyma, even as her custody dispute with ex-partner and co-parent Elon Musk continues to unfold.

The 36-year-old Canadian musician shared a series of images capturing intimate moments with the 35-year-old music producer, captioning the post “Beauty and the Beast.” The identity of Anyma in the photographs was quickly recognized by fans, despite Boucher not directly tagging him.

Anyma, originally from New York and raised in Italy, was previously married to model Vittoria Ceretti, who is currently linked to Leonardo DiCaprio.

Boucher shares a co-parenting arrangement for their three children, X Æ A-Xii, Exa Dark Sideræl, and Techno Mechanicus. This dynamic has been a source of tension and open conflict for several months, dating back at least to September 2023, when Musk initiated a legal battle over the parental rights of their children, with Grimes responding in kind shortly thereafter.

The lawsuits filed by both parties are related to the geographic residences of the parents, with Boucher preferring the trial to occur in California, where she currently resides, potentially for its legal advantages.

Amidst these proceedings, Musk has been seen spending time with their son X, suggesting he might have primary physical custody, as evidenced by their appearances at a Tesla plant in Germany and the Super Bowl in Las Vegas.
