He is said to have eleven children with the famous billionaire and former richest man in the world. He is said to have recently made a big request to the mothers of his children.
A few days ago, news outlets from other countries said that investor and businessman Elon Musk wants all of his children and their mothers to live together in some way.
The man who owns Tesla and SpaceX has 11 kids from three different women. The New York Times said last week that Musk wants to move his whole family into three mansions in Austin, Texas, that are next to each other.
The singer Claire Boucher, better known as Grimes, who Musk is married to and has three kids with, however, is against his plans. They have been fighting over who gets to keep their kids. People magazine says that Grimes wants an extra mansion, maybe in Los Angeles, so that all of Musk’s ex-partners and their kids can live together, as reported by The Bytes.
Musk’s mother of three known children, Shivon Zilis, is said to have agreed to his plan as well. She is an executive at Neuralink.
She is said to have moved into one of Musk’s three Austin mansions. But it’s still not clear if Musk’s fifth wife, Justine Wilson Musk, will follow suit or if she might like the mansion Grimes has suggested in Los Angeles better.
Musk and Justine also had a son named Nevada, but he died very young. This means that Musk now has 12 children, as far as we know.
But Musk’s views on transgender issues have made his relationship with his daughter Vivian Jenna Wilson (formerly his son Griffin Musk) tense, so it doesn’t look like he will be able to bring the whole family together.
Why does Musk have so many kids?
Musk has said in the past that he thinks falling birth rates are the biggest threat to humanity. And he thinks that having as many kids as possible will “fix the problem.”
The New York Times said that Musk has even offered his own sperm to SpaceX employees and “friends and acquaintances,” such as Nicole Shanahan, who ran for vice president as an independent candidate.
What kind of kids does Elon Musk have?
Elon Musk is the CEO of Tesla and the founder of SpaceX. He has at least 12 children from three different relationships.
Musk has six kids with his first wife, Justine Wilson. They met in college and fell in love. He later had three children with musician Grimes, his ex-girlfriend, while they were dating, which got a lot of attention. He just had three more kids with Shivon Zilis, who works as an executive at Neuralink, one of his other businesses.
Alexander Musk in Nevada
They got married in January 2000. Their names were Elon Musk and Justine Wilson. Their first child, a son named Nevada Alexander Musk, was born in 2002. Nevada died too soon by sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) at the age of 10 weeks.
Flint and Vivian Musk
Musk and Wilson used IVF to have another child after losing their first child. Griffin and Vivian, their twins, were born in 2004. They are now 20 years old.
Vivian came out as transgender in 2022. She legally changed her name and stopped being close to Musk. She said she didn’t want to be “related to” her biological father anymore. Later, Musk said he was “tricked into signing” papers for her to change her gender, and he used her deadname and said, “My son Xavier is dead—killed by the woke-mind virus.” This caused a lot of controversy.
Kai, Saxon, and Damian Musk
They had three more children, sons Kai, Saxon, and Damian, who were born through IVF in January 2006. Each of the three is now 18 years old. They were the last children the couple had together before they split up in 2008.
X AE A–XII Musk
Musk started dating singer Grimes (Claire Elise Boucher) in May 2020. He had been married twice to Westworld actress Talulah Riley and had a short relationship with Amber Heard. In the same month, the couple had their son, X AE A-XII. X, who is now 4 years old, was first named X A-12, but the name had to be changed because the characters “Æ” and “12” were not allowed in California.
In September 2021, Page Six was the only news source to say that Musk and Grimes were no longer together.
Dark Siderael Musk
Grimes told the public in March 2022 that she and Musk had their first daughter, Exa Dark Sideræl Musk, in December 2021 through a surrogate. She has a brother named X, so people call her Y. She is 2 years old now.
In an interview with Vanity Fair, Grimes called Musk her “boyfriend,” but she also said that their relationship was “fluid.” But she tweeted that they were no longer together hours after the story came out.
Grimes said on social media in March 2023 that her daughter goes by “Y,” “Why?” or even “?” but that the government won’t officially recognize the sound.
Strider and Azure
Court documents that Business Insider got in July 2022 show that Musk secretly had twins with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis in November 2021. Their names, Strider and Azure, were made public in September 2023. They are now 2 years old.
An Austin, Texas judge agreed with Musk and Zilis’s request that the twins should have their father’s last name and part of their mother’s last name in their middle names.
