Musk and his first partner, Justine Wilson, had twins Griffin and Xavier in 2004, followed by triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian in 2006. Unfortunately, Nevada Alexander Musk, their initial child, succumbed to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) at the tender age of 10 weeks. Musk and Wilson parted ways in 2008.
In 2010, Musk married actress Talulah Riley. They had a tumultuous relationship, divorcing and remarrying twice before ultimately ending their marriage in 2016. They did not have any children together.
In 2018, Musk began dating singer and musician Grimes. They welcomed their first child, X Æ A-Xii, in 2020. Their son’s unusual name, pronounced “X Ash A Twelve,” sparked much discussion and debate. In 2022, they had a second child, a daughter named Exa Dark Sideræl Musk, who they affectionately call Y, through gestational surrogacy.
Musk’s family is undoubtedly unique and unconventional, reflecting his own larger-than-life persona. With 11 children from three different partners, Musk’s personal life has garnered as much attention as his business ventures.
