PALO ALTO, CA – Tesla CEO Elon Musk has recently welcomed his third child with Shivon Zilis, a director at Neuralink, Musk’s brain-chip implant company. The new addition to Musk’s growing family comes after the birth of twins with Zilis back in 2022, which were reportedly conceived through in vitro fertilization.

With a net worth of around $200 billion, Musk has made headlines for fathering at least 12 children, with six of them born in the past five years alone. Three of these children are with Zilis, while the other three are with Canadian popstar Grimes. The billionaire entrepreneur has joked about helping with the underpopulation crisis, a concern he views as a significant threat to civilization.

In light of these personal revelations, Musk has also faced allegations of sexual harassment and inappropriate behavior at his space exploration company, SpaceX. Multiple female subordinates have accused him of misconduct, including engaging in a sexual relationship with an intern who later became an employee. The Wall Street Journal reported that Musk allegedly pursued relationships with other female subordinates, one of whom he asked to bear his children on multiple occasions.

Beyond his personal life, Musk has made controversial claims about world population trends, despite evidence to the contrary. While the UN projects continued population growth, Musk has persistently argued that the world is facing a declining population. These conflicting views on population dynamics have added layers of complexity to his public image as a tech entrepreneur and innovator.

Most recently, eight former SpaceX engineers have filed a lawsuit against Musk, alleging that they were fired for raising concerns about harassment against women in the workplace. The lawsuit paints a troubling picture of a “pervasively sexist culture” at SpaceX, where female engineers faced harassment and discrimination, all while their complaints went unaddressed.

As Musk navigates these personal and professional challenges, his actions and statements continue to draw attention and scrutiny. The blend of personal drama, legal disputes, and controversial opinions has created a multifaceted narrative around one of the world’s most prominent figures in the tech industry. The ongoing developments in Musk’s life underscore the complexities and controversies that surround high-profile individuals and their impact on society at large.
