Elon Musk's ex-wife has come to his aid after the tech billionaire has been accused of cheating in games, and he has issued back a simple one-word response.

You'd think that someone with as many responsibilities as Elon Musk wouldn't have much free time, yet he's been known to be a 'video game addict' according to biographer Walter Isaacson.

Musk is certainly no stranger to people making fun of his gaming abilities either, as a viral social media post of his rather suboptimal Elden Ring build made him a laughing stock, but some think that he might have had the last laugh.

It recently came to light that Musk might actually be one of the best Diablo 4 players in the world, as he cleared one of the game's toughest challenges in a record-breaking time, and even has the video to prove it.

He has also achieved almost the same in the recently released Path of Exile 2, and it would appear to the untrained eye that he's got a knack for dungeon-based ARPGs.

Yet, as always, this is not without controversy, as many have levied accusations of cheating - specifically account sharing - against Musk, leaving his otherwise incredible accolades more embarrassing than if he'd just been bad in the first place.

The claim is that Musk simply wouldn't have the time in order to achieve the things that he has done in Diablo 4, and is likely paying someone else to play the game for him - an action that is a bannable offence.

This has been only further cemented for many after he streamed Path of Exile 2, as he was seen passing by valuable items and attempting to enter portals that he wasn't eligible for.

Popular streamer Quin69 revealed that Musk "literally has no idea what he's doing," and that his actions prove that "this is straight-up account sharing."

It's safe to say that Musk didn't exactly react to the news well, and has had a public spat with huge content creator Asmongold in the days following, yet he might have just been handed a lifeline by an unlikely source.

Despite being currently in the middle of a rather toxic custody battle with his unofficial ex-wife Grimes, she has taken to X (formerly Twitter) to defend his honor and add veracity to his gaming accolades.

"Just for my personal pride," Grimes declared, "I would like to state that the father of my children was the first american druid in diablo to clear the abbatoir of zir and ended that season as the best in the USA.


"He was also ranking in Polytopia, and beat Felix himself at the game. I did observe these things with my own eyes. There are other witnesses who can verify this. That is all."

While it does all seem a little too official and legal for something that is simply just 'proof' that someone is good at a video game, this does perhaps throw water on the fire of cheating allegations.

Elon Musk did indeed reply to the declaration, issuing the simple response of: "Thanks."

Grimes isn't the only mother of Musk's children that has come to his defense in the past few days either, as Shivon Zilis has seemingly also provided proof of his dedication to Diablo.

"Popped up in the 'one year ago today' memories," Zilis posted with a video of Musk playing Diablo, "Didn't realize how much Season 2 would be one for the record books."

She also added in the replies that it was "accurate" that Musk was playing for 17 hours a day over the Christmas period, detailing: "He took breaks for family meals and Xmas presents but was too excited for sleep, which is how he made both time with the kiddos and a 17 hour AoZ push work that day."

Grimes did add that she 'agrees' with the notion that Musk should 'just be honest' about his gaming achievements though, so the story might not just be over quite yet.
