The desire for more children seems unending: US media report that Elon Musk has become a father for the twelfth time.
It is well known that Elon Musk, 52, is one of the richest, currently the richest person in the world. However, he also appears to be working towards becoming one of the most prolific celebrities. According to the news and media company “Bloomberg,” Musk and his girlfriend Shivon Zilis quietly welcomed a child earlier this year. This would be their third child together after the birth of their twins, Strider and Azure, in November 2021.
Elon Musk reportedly becomes a father for the twelfth time
Neither Musk nor the executive of his company Neuralink has confirmed the report so far, which is not unusual for the multi-billionaire. Although he is usually open about his private thoughts on his news service X, which he acquired and promptly renamed in 2022, he tends to be very private about the birth of his children. The birth of the twins also came to light much later.
Musk is a fan of large families
Musk has repeatedly emphasized that he does not see a potential overpopulation as a problem – quite the opposite. In 2022, he tweeted: “A declining birth rate is by far the greatest danger to civilization.” The US site “Page Six” quoted him shortly after the birth of his twins, saying, “Cheers to big families.” He also mentioned that he plans to have more children – “as long as I am able to spend time with them and be a good father.”
This seems to still be the case. If the report is true, it would be Musk’s twelfth child. With his ex-partner Grimes, 36, Musk also has three children. His first six children are from his marriage to ex-wife Justine Musk, 51, who gave birth to twins and even triplets. Their first son together died of sudden infant death syndrome in 2002.
