Elon Musk, the visionary behind Tesla and SpaceX, is known for pushing technological boundaries. However, his growing family has also drawn significant public attention. As of 2025, Musk is a father to 14 children from multiple relationships. His most recent child was born earlier this year.
Musk has often spoken about his belief in large families. In a 2022 interview with the Financial Times, he hinted at the possibility of having even more children in the future. Despite his busy career, he continues to emphasize the importance of fatherhood.
The Musk Family Tree
A Tragic Beginning: Nevada Alexander
Musk’s first child, Nevada Alexander, was born in 2002 with his first wife, Justine Wilson. Sadly, he passed away at just 10 weeks old due to sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).
Twins and Triplets with Justine Wilson
After Nevada’s passing, Musk and Justine turned to IVF and welcomed five more children:
- Twins (2004): Vivian Jenna Wilson (formerly Xavier) and Griffin Musk. Vivian legally changed her name in 2022, distancing herself from Musk due to gender identity and personal reasons.
- Triplets (2006): Kai, Saxon, and Damian Musk. They have largely remained out of the public eye.
Musk and Justine divorced in 2008 but share custody of their children.
Children with Grimes
X Æ A-Xii (born 2020): Known as “X,” his name sparked curiosity due to its unique spelling and pronunciation (X Ash A Twelve).
- Exa Dark Sideræl Musk (born 2021): Nicknamed “Y,” she was born via surrogate.
- Techno Mechanicus (date undisclosed): Also called “Tau,” his birth was revealed in a 2023 biography about Musk.
Twins and More with Shivon Zilis
Musk fathered four children with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis:
- Twins Strider and Azure (born 2021): Their birth became public after a 2022 court filing.
- Arcadia (born 2024): Musk and Zilis later confirmed her birth.
- Seldon Lycurgus (born 2025): Zilis announced his birth in early 2025, describing him as “a juggernaut with a heart of gold.”
Rumored Child with Ashley St. Clair
Conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair claimed she gave birth to Musk’s 13th child in late 2024. While Musk has not publicly confirmed this, St. Clair requested privacy regarding the matter.
Musk’s Views on Parenthood
Despite his demanding schedule, Musk prioritizes time with his children. In an interview with Business Insider, he shared that he spends as much time as possible with them. He believes that strong family bonds are essential.
As Musk continues to shape the future of technology, his growing family remains a topic of fascination. With 14 children and counting, he frequently makes headlines not just for his innovations but also for his personal life.
