Billionaire businessman Elon Musk’s father has claimed that he fathered a second unplanned child with his stepdaughter, reported an American tabloid. The 76-year-old Errol Musk also said that he felt that the only reason for being on Earth is to reproduce.
The US Sun newspaper reported that Errol said he had a child with his stepdaughter Jana Bezuidenhout, who is 35 years old, three years ago. Errol and Bezuidenhout had a girl named Elliot Rush, who they called Rushi, in 2018. He told the paper that they had lived together for a while.
The report said that Errol Musk, an engineer who went into business, was married to Jana’s mother Heide for almost 20 years and had two children with her.
Errol said that even though he hasn’t looked at the child’s DNA, it’s “pretty obvious” that she is his because she looks just like his other two daughters, Rose and Tosca.
In the interview, he said, “The only reason we are on Earth is to have children. If I could have another one, I would.” I see no reason why not.”
But he added that while he missed the infant, it was also challenging. “I mean, I would much rather have them here. But Jana came and spent a few days here about six months ago. And the kids were starting to get on my nerves. Then I miss them as soon as they have gone,” he said.
He added that his other daughters were “shocked” by his relationship with his stepdaughter and that they found it creepy. “And they still don’t like it. They still feel a bit creepy about it, because she’s their sister. Their half-sister,” he said in the interview.
Elon is yet to respond to the news. In the 2015 book Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future, author Ashlee Vance wrote that while Elon’s family were “in agreement that he [Errol] is not a pleasant man,” they seemed determined not to badmouth him.
“It would certainly be accurate to say that I did not have a good childhood,” Elon told the author. “It may sound good. It was not absent of good, but it was not a happy childhood. It was like misery. He’s good at making life miserable—that’s for sure. He can take any situation no matter how good it is and make it bad. He’s not a happy man,” he said.
He also said that he and Justine Wilson, who was his wife at the time, had promised that their children would never meet Errol.
In a court document filed earlier in July, Elon Musk, who is 51 years old, said that he and Shivon Zilis, who is 36 and a top executive at his brain-chip company Neuralink, had twins in 2021. Musk has a total of nine children. Two of them are with the Canadian singer Grimes, and the other five are with his ex-wife, the Canadian author Justine.
