From Town & Country

Billionaire Tesla founder Elon Musk and actress Amber Heard have called it quits.

Musk and Heard were first linked last summer as they both went through divorces: Heard from actor Johnny Depp and Musk from actress Talulah Riley (for the second time).

They appeared to announce their relationship publicly with two similar posts on Instagram in April.

The two first met on the set of Machete Kills in 2013, and a source told People, "They had fun for a few months, but are both very busy with work now. It was getting hard to find time to see each other."

"Elon’s is working day and night. This is his life and he loves it," the source added. He is in no position to be in a relationship right now and ended it."

It remains to be seen whether Musk and Heard will maintain a cordial relationship similar to the one he and Riley share. Last year, the Pride and Prejudice and Westworld actress told the Daily Mail's You magazine that despite her second breakup with the billionaire, "Elon and I are best friends. We still see each other all the time and take care of each other." She also did not rule out marrying Musk a third time when asked about it in August: "I mean, never say never," the actress said. (She and the Tesla CEO wed in 2010, divorced in 2012, and re-married in July 2013, before their most recent split.)

The tech tycoon is now worth $16.6 billion, according to Forbes, and the divorce filing that Riley made in Los Angeles Superior Court in March 2016 did not mention a prenuptial agreement. Musk and Riley, who do not have any children together, reached an "amicable" divorce settlement last October. Their divorce was finalized in November.
