<strong>Errol Musk claimed that he is still having kids and that he had a new one with his stepdaughter three years ago! Here are some facts about Elon Musk's father.</strong>

The father of Elon Musk, Errol Musk, age 76, has admitted to having a second kid with Jana Bezuidenhout, age 35, in an interview with The Sun. He also discussed his experiences as a frequent parent and what it's like to have children with younger women. People are also becoming more interested in the millionaire and his father as Elon, the 51-year-old Tesla inventor, just disclosed that he secretly welcomed twins with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis back in November.  

5 Facts About Elon Musk's 76-year-old Father, Who Just Announced He Had Another Child

1. Errol is a man of many hats.

On Elon's Wikipedia page, it is stated that his father is a multitalented individual. Errol, who was born in 1945, is mentioned as an electromechanical engineer and pilot (probably most tellingly as Elon's father). He was a co-owner of an emerald mine in Zambia and has also held positions as a consultant, sailor, and property developer.

2. He had just one marriage.

Errol has only been married once, to model and nutritionist Maye Musk (née Haldeman), who is now 74. Errol is said to have fathered children with a number of other women. Elon was born on June 28, 1971, Kimbal Musk, a 49-year-old chef and entrepreneur, was born in 1972, and their only child together, filmmaker Tosca Musk, a 47-year-old, was born in 1974. The couple was married from 1970 to 1979.

3. There are 7 kids born to Errol.

In a July 2022 interview with The Sun, Errol disclosed that he and Jana had two "unplanned" children: a daughter, age three, in 2019, and a son, age five, called Elliot Rush. Asha and Alexandra Musk are Elon Musk's half-sisters, according to a different article in The Sun, and he is also said to have fathered two daughters with her mother, Heide, to whom he was married for almost two decades. Errol has three children with Maye, bringing his total number of kids from three different partnerships to seven.

4. He has a strong belief in reproduction.

Like his son Elon, Errol is quite forthright about his feelings towards having kids. He told The Sun, "Reproduction is the only purpose for which we are here on Earth. "I would have more kids if I could. There is no justification, in my opinion. He continued by saying that if he had delayed having his older children, the world might have been drastically different. Elon or Kimbal "wouldn't exist" if I had given it any thought, he claimed.

Elon has also acquired a sizable brood, totaling 10 children, the most recent of which were the twins with Shivon Zilis in November 2021.

5. He's been charged with assault.

When speaking to Harper's Bazaar about her reportedly unhealthy relationship with Errol, Maye didn't hold back. The CoverGirl model told the publication in November 2019 that "everyone I knew called him 'the Pig' because he treated me so poorly in public." And I was afraid to inform anyone about the more severe violence. Like every victim of abuse, I felt humiliated and was aware of my error. He repeatedly criticized me, calling me dull, ugly, and stupid. Despite being extremely wealthy, he made sure I had nothing.
