Elon Musk, the enigmatic billionaire, may have quietly added another member to his ever-growing family. Reports suggest that Musk welcomed his third child with top Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis earlier this year, bringing the total number of his children to 12.
While the details regarding the baby's name and gender remain undisclosed, the news of this new addition has sparked curiosity and speculation among Musk's followers and the public.
Shivon Zilis, the alleged mother of Musk's latest child, has chosen to remain tight-lipped about the matter, and Musk himself has not responded to media inquiries regarding the reported birth.
This purported third child comes after Musk welcomed twins Strider and Azure with Zilis in November 2021. Additionally, Musk and his then-partner Grimes welcomed daughter Exa Dark Siderรฆl, also known as Y, via surrogate around the same time.
When congratulated on the arrival of the twins last year, Musk expressed his enthusiasm for having a large family, stating his desire to have as many children as he could be actively involved with and be a good father to.
In a tweet in 2022, Musk highlighted his concerns about declining birth rates, emphasizing the importance of maintaining healthy population growth for the stability of civilization.
Notably, Musk also shares parental responsibilities for sons Techno Mechanicus and X AE A-XII with his ex-partner Grimes, with whom he is currently embroiled in a legal battle over custody rights.
Despite the ongoing legal disputes, Musk has been actively involved in his children's lives, recently taking his 4-year-old son to various high-profile events and locations, showcasing his commitment to fatherhood.
Furthermore, Musk has older children from his previous marriage to Justine Musk, including twins Griffin and Vivian, as well as triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian. Tragically, the couple's eldest child, Nevada, passed away from sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) in 2002.
Elon Musk's expanding family continues to capture public interest, with each new addition adding to the intrigue surrounding the tech mogul's personal life and parenting journey.
