Elon Musk gave birth to his seventh child in December. According to media reports, however, he is said to have become a father again shortly before – of twins that have been kept secret so far.
Normally, Elon Musk is not too bad for any headline. Whether it’s about his companies Tesla or Starlink or he’s trying to buy Twitter, Musk likes to seek out the public eye and also shares insights into his private life. The richest person in the world has so far successfully kept a message about his offspring secret: He is said to have become the father of twins in November. Just before he had his second child with singer Grimes.
This emerges from a report by “Business Insiders”. The magazine apparently has court documents that show Musk had twins with Shivon Zilis of the United States in November last year. The documents show that the two parents had tried to change the names of the two children in court. They should go by Musk’s last name and be given the mother’s last name as their middle name. The court granted the request in May, reports “Business Insider”. Neither Musk nor Zilis are said to have answered inquiries from the magazine, and the agency “Reuters” also tried unsuccessfully to get confirmation from the parents.
Child seven and eight for Elon Musk
For Musk, the story is unfavorable in several respects. For one thing, the children are from an affair. Just weeks later, he had a second child with his official partner, musician Grimes. Daughter Exa Dark Sideræl Musk was born with the help of a surrogate mother. On the other hand, Musk also has a conflict of interest as an employer: Zilis is a high-ranking employee at Musk’s company Neuralink. She is considered a very talented manager and has also been discussed as a possible head of Twitter should Musk succeed in his plans to buy the company.
Nothing else is known about the twins. Business Insider is not giving their names or gender to protect their identities. Should Musk actually be the father, they would be the seventh and eighth children of the multi-billionaire. Musk already has five children from his first marriage to ex-wife Justine Wilson.
