Natasha Began Reportedly Dating Elon Musk After His Split With Grimes
As we have mentioned above both of them are reluctant to reveal anything about their reported romance. But, some high-profile media sources said Natasha’s seemingly new relationship with Musk began soon after his breakup with his ex-girlfriend Grimes.
An insider said,
