Elon Musk, the renowned entrepreneur and CEO of SpaceX and Tesla Inc., is the father of 11 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren. He recently posted on X, stating, “Doing my best to help the underpopulation crisis. Population collapse due to low 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 rates poses a much greater threat to civilization than global warming.”

Musk shares five 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren with his first wife, Justine Wilson. Their twins, Vivian Jenna and Griffin, are currently 19 years old. They also welcomed triplets named Kai, Damian, and Sax, 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 in 2006. Their eldest son, Nevada, tragically passed away at 10 weeks old.

In recent years, Musk’s family has grown with his ex-girlfriend, musician Grimes. In his newly released biography by Walter Isaacson, it has been disclosed that Musk and Grimes welcomed a third 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥. The young one is named Techno Mechanicus, but he goes by the nickname Tau. Until now, they kept Tau’s existence private.

Elon Musk is constructing a compound for his 11 kids and their mothers.

This follows the precedent set with their second 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥, Exa Dark Sideræl Musk, known as Y, who was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 in 2022. Their first 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 together, X Æ A-12, commonly referred to as X, was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 in 2020.

Musk also volunteered to be a sperm donor for Shivon Zilis, an executive at Neuralink Corp. They utilized in vitro fertilization (IVF) to ensure that the 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren would carry his genetic lineage. According to the biography, Musk expressed a wish for intelligent individuals to have 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren. Zilis gave birth to twins in 2021, coinciding with the time Grimes was expecting their second 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥. Despite there being no romantic involvement, as reported by Reuters, Musk allegedly did not inform Grimes about his participation in the 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 of Zilis’s twins.

The two mothers seem to have a strained relationship. In a now-deleted post, Grimes claimed that Zilis had blocked her on X and alleged that Musk was preventing her from seeing their son. “Tell Shivon to unblock me, and ask Elon to let me see my son or please respond to my lawyer. I have never been allowed to see a photo of these 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren until this moment, despite this situation completely tearing my family apart.”

Additionally, there are reports of a strained relationship between Musk and his daughter Vivian, who is transgender. Vivian petitioned a California court to recognize her new name and gender identity, stating that she sought these changes due to her gender identity and her desire to distance herself from her biological father.
