"We are not dating," the Tesla CEO responded to a post on X.
The post received a mixed reaction from the netizens with some expressing with some shipping the two with one user saying, "Why not, you clearly get along."
"That would had been a very nice romantic date photo Boss! Minus the bodyguard in the background getting in your way. Boss her net worth is like 30 million! Very impressive for politicians! She made a positive impression on Maye too! I notice when you were making your speech you were very shy very unlike you. And I think she might have a crush on you. But she might be after SpaceX too. I think she is a good and sincere woman. When the EU was against you, she did stood by you! I love this video!! So cute!" said another.
This came a day after Musk bestowed praise upon Meloni at an awards ceremony in New York.
While presenting the Atlantic Council Global Citizen Award to Meloni, Musk remarked that it was an honor to recognize "someone who is even more beautiful on the inside than on the outside."
“She’s also someone who is authentic, honest, truthful — and that can’t always be said about politicians,” Musk said.
