They met again after graduation. She flew out several times to meet him in Silicon Valley, where he moved after graduation.

That’s the difference between you and me. I just assume that there will be nannies.

After Elon and Justine's divorce, Elon had another child, son X Æ A-Xii (X Ash A Twelve), on 4th May 2020 with his girlfriend, Claire Boucher (aka Grimes).

After three years of dating, Grimes and Musk broke up in September 2021 but later rekindled their relationship. Elon and the Canadian singer welcomed daughter Exa Dark Sideræl Musk via surrogate in December 2021. The girl was nicknamed Y after their other child, who was named X.

Their third child, Techno Mechanicus (nicknamed Tau), was born around June 2022. Grimes and Musk are battling for custody of their children in California and Texas courts.

Elon also quietly welcomed twins Strider and Azure on Shivon Zilis, a Neuralink executive, in November 2021. The two had a third child together at the beginning of 2024. Musk exclusively confirmed having a 12th child to Page Six in June 2024.

Who are Elon Musk's daughters?

Elon and the Canadian singer Grimes have a daughter named Exa Dark Sideræl Musk (born female in December 2021 via surrogate). The Tesla tycoon also has a transgender daughter named Vivian Jenna Wilson (born male on 15th April 2004 as Xavier). Vivian was born to Elon by his first wife, Jennifer Justine. She had a twin brother named Griffin.

Elon’s relationship with his children

Elon Musk's relationship with Vivian Jenna Wilson, his transgender daughter, has been tense in recent years. The pair reportedly are not close, and she tried to hide her true gender identity from her dad for several years.

Three days after her 18th birthday, she filed a petition to change her gender to female and drop the name Xavier Musk in 2023. She also revealed in court filings that she no longer wished to be related to her father in any way.

Musk, who was confidently optimistic about his daughter's transition, called the then-19-year-old Vivian a communist who thinks anyone rich is evil, blaming her political views on the expensive private high school she attended.

Elon claimed he was tricked by the "woke mind virus" into allowing Vivian to become a transgender woman. He said:

I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys, Xavier. This was really before I had any understanding of what was going on, and we had COVID going on, so there was a lot of confusion. And I was told Xavier might commit suicide.

On the other hand, Elon Musk's other children love playing video games, traveling, and hanging out with him but are not interested in visiting his Tesla factory. He believes video games improve children’s learning ability by boosting their concentration.

Saxon, one of Damian Musk's triplet brothers, plays the piano. Elon shared a video of him performing for older adults; some thought he was Damian because he also loves music. For now, little is known about the hobbies of Musk's other children.
