This section is an excerpt from Elon Musk.[]
Musk in 2022

Elon Reeve Musk (/ˈiːlɒn/ EE-lon; born June 28, 1971) is a businessman known for his key roles in Tesla, Inc., SpaceX, and Twitter (which he rebranded as X). Since 2025, he has been a senior advisor to United States president Donald Trump and head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Musk is the wealthiest person in the world; as of February 2025, Forbes estimates his net worth to be US$353 billion.

Born to a prominent family in Pretoria, South Africa, Musk emigrated to Canada in 1989 and acquired its citizenship though his mother. He moved to the U.S. and graduated from the University of Pennsylvania before moving to California to pursue business ventures. In 1995, Musk co-founded the software company Zip2. After its sale in 1999, he co-founded X.com, an online payment company that later merged to form PayPal, which was acquired by eBay in 2002 for $1.5 billion. That year, Musk also became a U.S. citizen.

In 2002, Musk founded SpaceX and became its CEO and chief engineer. The company has since led innovations in reusable rockets and commercial spaceflight. In 2004, Musk joined Tesla, Inc., as an early investor, and became its CEO and product architect in 2008; it has become a market leader in electric vehicles. In 2015, he co-founded OpenAI to advance artificial intelligence research, but left its board in 2018. In 2016, Musk co-founded Neuralink, a company focused on brain–computer interfaces, and in 2017 launched the Boring Company, which aims to develop tunnel transportation. Musk was named Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2021. In 2022, he acquired Twitter, implementing significant changes and rebranding it as X in 2023. In January 2025, he was appointed head of Trump's newly created DOGE.

Musk's political activities and views have made him a polarizing figure. He has been criticized for making unscientific and misleading statements, including COVID-19 misinformation, affirming antisemitic and transphobic comments, and promoting conspiracy theories. His acquisition of Twitter (now X) was controversial due to a subsequent increase in hate speech and the spread of misinformation on the service. He has engaged in political activities in several countries, including as a vocal and financial supporter of Trump. Musk was the largest donor in the 2024 U.S. presidential election and is a supporter of global far-right figures, causes, and political parties.

Relationships and children of Elon Musk

Musk has fathered twelve children, one of whom is deceased, along with an alleged thirteenth child that Musk has not yet acknowledged.[1][2] He met his first wife, Canadian author Justine Wilson, while attending Queen's University in Ontario, Canada; they married in 2000.[3] In 2002, their first child Nevada Musk died of sudden infant death syndrome at the age of 10 weeks.[4] After his death, the couple used in vitro fertilization (IVF) to continue their family;[5] they had twins in 2004, followed by triplets in 2006.[5] The couple divorced in 2008 and had shared custody of their children.[6][7]

In 2008, Musk began dating English actress Talulah Riley.[8] They married two years later at Dornoch Cathedral in Scotland.[9][10] In 2012, the couple divorced, before remarrying the following year.[11] After briefly filing for divorce in 2014,[11] Musk finalized a second divorce from Riley in 2016.[12] Musk then dated Amber Heard for several months in 2017;[13] he had reportedly been "pursuing" her since 2012.[14]

Grimes performing on stage in 2014

In 2018, Musk and Canadian musician Grimes said that they were dating.[15] Grimes gave birth to Musk's seventh child in May 2020.[16][17] In December 2021, Grimes and Musk had a second child together (Musk's tenth child), born via surrogacy.[18] Despite the pregnancy, Musk confirmed reports that the couple were "semi-separated" in September 2021; in an interview with Time in December 2021, he said he was single.[19][20] In March 2022, Grimes said of her relationship with Musk: "I would probably refer to him as my boyfriend, but we're very fluid."[18] Later that month, Grimes tweeted that she and Musk had broken up again.[21] In September 2023 it was reported that the pair had had a third child (Musk's eleventh).[22] In October 2023, Grimes sued Musk over parental rights and custody of their eldest.[23][24][25]

In July 2022, Insider published court documents revealing that Musk had had his eighth and ninth children, twins born via IVF with Shivon Zilis, director of operations and special projects at Neuralink, in November 2021.[26] They were born weeks before Musk and Grimes had their second child via surrogacy in December. The news "raise[d] questions about workplace ethics", given that Zilis directly reported to Musk.[27] Zilis's third child together with Musk (his twelfth child) was born in early 2024 via surrogacy.[28][29]

Also in July 2022, The Wall Street Journal reported that Musk allegedly had an affair with Nicole Shanahan, the wife of Google co-founder Sergey Brin, in 2021, leading to their divorce the following year.[30] Musk denied the report.[31] Musk also had a relationship with Australian actress Natasha Bassett, who has been described as "an occasional girlfriend".[32] In October 2024, The New York Times reported Musk bought a Texas compound for his children and their mothers,[33] though Musk denied having done so.[34]

On February 14, 2025, Ashley St. Clair, an influencer and author, posted on X claiming to have given birth to Musk's son five months earlier, which media outlets reported as Musk's supposed thirteenth child.[35][36] On February 22, 2025 it was reported that St Clair had filed for sole custody of her five-month-old son and for Musk to be recognised as the child's father.[37][38] St. Clair's pleadings also requested child support be paid by Musk.[39]

Vivian Wilson

"Vivian Wilson" redirects here. For the rugby player, see Vivian Wilson (rugby union).

Vivian Jenna Wilson (born 2004) is a college student studying languages, who is the eldest living child of Elon Musk and Justine Wilson. In 2022, she came out as a trans woman and officially changed her name,[40] adopting her mother's surname because she no longer wished to be associated with Musk.[40] Elon's former partner Grimes has defended Vivian, supported her transition, and has stated she is proud of Vivian for speaking out.[41][42]

Vivian has been vocally critical of Elon Musk's actions and supportive of transgender rights.[43][44] She expressed that Musk was "cold", "quick to anger", "uncaring and narcissistic", and that his infrequent visits commonly involved him berating her for being feminine.[45] Following the result of the 2024 United States presidential election, Vivian voiced her intention to emigrate from the United States in the future,[46] and after Elon's controversial gesture at Trump's inauguration which has been described as a Nazi salute, she proclaimed "let's call a spade a fucking spade".[47][48]

Musk blamed the estrangement on what the Financial Times characterized as "the supposed takeover of elite schools and universities by neo-Marxists", and has said that Vivian's gender transition is primarily what sparked his drive to "destroy the woke mind virus".[49][50] In a July 2024 episode of Jordan Peterson's podcast, Musk said that he had "lost [his] son, essentially" because of gender-affirming care. He commented: "You know, they call it deadnaming for a reason. The reason it's called deadnaming is because your son is dead", stating that Vivian "is dead, killed by the woke mind virus".[51]

X Æ A-Xii Musk

Elon and X Æ A-Xii Musk, in the Oval Office, February 2025

X Æ A-Xii Musk was born in May 2020, the eldest child of Elon Musk and Grimes.[16][17] Musk and Grimes originally gave the baby the name "X Æ A-12", which would have violated California regulations as it contained characters (Arabic numerals) that are not in the modern English alphabet,[52][53] which they then changed to "X Æ A-Xii".[54][55] They have received criticism for choosing a name perceived to be impractical and difficult to pronounce.[56]

During the second presidency of Donald Trump, Elon Musk took X Æ A-Xii to numerous official events in Washington, D.C.[57]
