Errol Musk, Elon’s father confessed that he became a father once more. His latest child is born 5 years ago, but he came out to confess this to the world just now.
As he states, he had an ‘unplanned’ child with his stepdaughter Jana Bezuidenhout. Yes, you read that right. His stepdaughter.
In 2018 rumors were spreading of Errol’s sexual relationship with his stepdaughter, but they were not proven, nor confessed until now. The newborn, Elliot Rush is now five and is a fruition of the relationship between Elon’s controversial father and Elon’s stepsister.
Elon Musk did not receive the news about his father’s relationship with joy. On the contrary, it is said that he went berserk and was grossed out by the situation. He knows Jana all his life and they lived together since she was 4.
Errol had a long marriage with Jana’s mother, Jock Bezuidenhout. They were together for 18 long years and had two children together. According to him, the relationship with Jana came unexpectedly and he is delighted that it happened. He also reveals that since the birth of their son the couple is living together in his home.
Elon Musk’s Father Had A Son With His Stepdaughter Jana – Errol Musk (76) Says We Are On Earth To Reproduce
Errol has some advice for all unmarried men out there. He says that they should seek a woman near their age, a big gap in the years like in his case eventually shows up and affects the relationship. And according to him, it is not pleasant.
“So any man who marries a woman, even if you feel very sprightly, it’s going to be nice for a while. But there’s a big gap… And that gap is going to show itself.” – Errol states. “I married her mother when she was 25 and I was 45. She was probably one of the best-looking women I’ve ever seen in my life.”
Errol says that he is not living with Jana at the moment, however, they still have great affection for one another.
“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.”
“I mean, I would much rather have them here. But Jana came and spent a few days here about six months ago. And the kids were starting to get on my nerves.” – he says. “Then I miss them as soon as they have gone.”
Lastly, seems like Errol is sharing his opinion on reproduction and multi-member families with his son, Elon. Even though in the 8th decade of his life he says he would have another child if he still can.
“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. If I had thought about it then Elon or Kimbal wouldn’t exist.”
He goes on to explain how his other children think it is strange how he has a child with his stepdaughter. He says especially his daughters are not able to accept the fact since they were playing together when they were little.
Furthermore, the billionaire’s father is not exactly sure how many children he has. He says that during some period in his life he had sex with different women each day. So it is possible that he has other children as well. However, at the moment he hasn’t recognized them as his own.
“I have about six people, women who claim that their child is my child right now. Obviously, they are opportunists. There was a period in Johannesburg in the eighties when I was going out with different women 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. But I haven’t had anything genuine presented to me. But I’ve got a lot of people claiming.”
Errol Musk jokes about the number of grandchildren he has as well. He says that it is really hard to keep track of his grandchildren since they are so many.
One cannot help but ask, what good is such a broad family if you are not enjoying your time together and if you are not in ‘good’ relations with most of your offspring. There were times when Elon didn’t have any contact with his father.
In an article for Rolling Stone back in 2017, Elon explained what he thinks of his father. He says he is a terrible human being and he claims he was isolated from him for the majority of his childhood. What good is having children if they think about you in this manner?
But, what is Elon doing differently than his father? Seems like the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. He is not in so good relationship with his children from his first marriage. Moreover, one of them even asked for a name change, so it can have nothing in common with Musk and his legacy.
Another thing is that Elon is following in his father’s footsteps by having extramarital children wherever he can. Most recently, he welcomed twins with one of his top executives in the Neuralink company. Allegedly he was in a relationship with her since 2017 but had the children past November, just a year and a half after he had his second child with the singer Grimes.
Seems like these Musks are reproduction machines. Even in the 8th decade of their life, they are ready to welcome more children.
Elon believes that there is a shortage of babies in the United States and in the world in general. And by the looks of it, he is taking the matter into his own hands to normalize that number. Seems like his father is there to help him. That’s what fathers are for.
