The duo also attended Rihanna’s Met Gala afterparty on Monday. An eyewitness told Us Weekly that Musk and Grimes “made out the whole night” at the event, which was sponsored by Beats by Dre.

“They have been dating for about a month,” another source tells Us of the new couple.

The source added that pair designed the musician’s dress together over dinner and commissioned a team to make it.

“Amber wants her independence and prefers being friends rather than romantically linked,” one source told Us at time.

Another source aded that “Elon decided it was time to end things, and Amber agreed … They both care for one another, but the timing just isn’t right.”

The Tesla CEO and the Justice League actress, 31, split for the firs time in August 2017 after dating for a year. Five months later, they were spotted kissing in Los Angeles and spent New Year’s Eve together in Chile. Heard also attended the 2018 Met Gala.
