Elon Musk’s father, Errol, dropped a bombshell as he revealed he welcomed a secret second child with his stepdaughter.
During an interview with The Sun, Errol Musk shared that he welcomed a daughter with his stepdaughter, 35-year-old Jana Bezuidenhout, in 2019.
Errol previously married Jana’s mother Heide and had two children with her.
He explained to the outlet the second child with Jana was “unplanned” but he was living with her after they had a son nicknamed Rushi.
“I haven’t checked her DNA. But she looks just like my other daughters. She looks like Rose and Tosca mixed up,” Errol Musk said.
He added, “She looks exactly like Rushi and she behaves like him. So it’s pretty obvious you know.”
Errol Musk continued, “She wasn’t planned. But I mean, we were living together. She [Jana] stayed here for about 18 months after Rushi was born.”
The tech billionaire’s father then realized “she’s two generations behind whereas her mother was one generation behind when I married her.”
According to Errol Musk, they no longer live together but “have a lot of affection for each other.”
He went on, “But the thing is it’s not practical. She’s 35 next birthday. So she’s getting on. So eventually if I’m still around she might wind up back with me. It’s difficult.”
When it comes to having more kids, Errol Musk told The Sun, “The only thing we are on Earth for is to reproduce. If I could have another child I would. I can’t see any reason not to.”
Later in the interview, Errol Musk claimed he has “about six people, women who claim that their child is my child right now. Obviously, they are opportunists.”
He continued, “There was period in Johannesburg in the eighties that I was going out with different woman every night. I had plenty of dates. So it’s quite conceivable that that one of them could actually come back and say, this is your child. It’s possible.”
The outlet reported that Elon Musk went “berserk” when he found out about the child.
The interview comes just a week after it was reported that Elon Musk had twins with one of his top executives.
He responded to the report in a tweet, saying, “Doing my best to help the underpopulation crisis. A collapsing birth rate is the biggest danger civilization faces by far.”
