Elon Musk's father, Errol Musk said he sees no issue with his son having many children. In an interview with GB News earlier this year, Errol Musk spoke about his son's growing family and said he supports his choices. Speaking during the interview, Errol said “Elon’s not married”, adding “Marriage is what really defines whether you are doing something outside of a relationship. If he is not married, he can do whatever he likes.”
Elon Musk’s father says son can have “as many children as he likes”
Errol said the idea of Elon having more children is “wonderful” and mentioned meeting a man who had 18 wives and 25 children.
“There’s nothing stopping him [from having a child]. Only so-called morals that don’t exist in two-thirds of the world,” he stated.
Errol Musk also spoke positively about modern fertility technologies like embryo freezing and gender selection, calling them “absolutely extraordinary.”
Commenting on his own situation, Errol said he would be happy to have another child but added, “It’s really a question of finding the right partner, you know. That’s what it really boils down to.”
He said he now has 22 grandchildren, mostly through Elon, but that doesn’t stand out to him. “Compared to some of the men I’ve met in the Middle East, I’m a beginner,” he repeated.
When asked about the women Elon has children with, Errol said, “If you don’t marry the man, you’re just another individual. She can go and have as many children as she likes.”
When Ashley St. Clair announced she is mother of Elon Musk’s baby
Earlier this year in February, Ashley Clair publicly announced that she and Elon Musk had welcomed a son together in September 2024. The twenty-six-year-old author shared a post on X stating “Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father. I have not previously disclosed this to protect our child's privacy and safety, but in recent days it has become clear that tabloid media intends to do so, regardless of the harm it will cause.”
Ashley Clair added, "I intend to allow our child to grow in a normal and safe environment. For that reason, I ask that the media honor our child's privacy, and refrain from invasive reporting."
Musk, however, refuted Ashely's claims. But a Wall Street Journal report disclosed the results of a paternity test ordered by the New York Supreme Court, which confirmed Elon Musk as the child’s father with a 99.9999% probability. With the confirmation, Ashley Clair’s son – Romulus becomes Musk’s 14th child.
The tech billionaire shares his other children with three different women.
