Who doesn’t know about the rich and famous Elon Musk, the business tycoon and investor? Musk is the CEO of Space X and Tesla, Inc. listed as the wealthiest person in the world with a net worth of a whopping US$242 billion as of 2022. Elon Musk has always been creating headlines for his messy business dealings. Recently the billionaire is ruling the internet with the scandal involving him dating Google co-founder Sergey Brin’s wife Nicole Shanahan. In this article, you will find everything about Elon Musk girlfriend and children.

The 51-year-old has left quite the trail of heartbreak with several affairs and had multiple partners including two ex-wives and nine children.

Let’s take a look at the controversial billionaire’s complicated love life:

1. Elon Musk’s first wife Justine Musk, 2000 – 2008

Justine Wilson is the first wife of Elon Musk, the duo met in Ontario while studying together. They soon fell in love and got married in 2000. The couple moved to Los Angeles after their marriage and had their first child Nevada. Unfortunately, the baby died from SIDS when he was only 10 weeks old.

Musk has five children with his first wife, they had twins, Griffin, Xavier, and then triplets, Damian, Saxon, and Kai together.

In a Marie Claire article, Justine once told that she considered herself to be Musk’s ‘starter wife’. After eight years of marriage, they got divorced in 2008. She told that Elon made her ‘disposable’.

2. Elon Musk second wife Talulah Riley, 2010-2016

After his divorce from Justine, Musk started dating British actress Talulah Riley. Within weeks after they met, the pair got married in 2010. The marriage lasted for just 2 years and the couple got divorced in 2012.

But this is not the end of their story, hold on to your seats as this is just the beginning of the roller coaster ride.

Musk and Talulah got remarried in 2013 and she again became Elon Musk wife. Musk filed for divorce but withdrew the next year. The couple stayed together a little longer but eventually in 2016 Talulah filed for divorce. Reports suggest that they continue to ‘look after each other’ and speak highly of one another publicly.

3. Elon Musk girlfriend Amber Heard, 2017-2018

Amber Heard? Yes, you heard it right. After the divorce from his second wife, Musk was seen publicly with Amber Heard. This was after her abusive divorce from Johnny Depp.

Amber and Musk’s relationship was brief and lasted a year and they seem to remain friends. Reports suggest that Musk honored Amber’s pledged payments to the ACLU that were supposed to be paid by her using her divorce settlement from Depp. Looks like an easy way out huh?

Under questioning, Elon Musk girlfriend Amber revealed that Musk made some payments in her name. During her long and embarrassing court trial, Musk was missing in action and was not called to testify even once.

Later, Elon Musk was found tweeting that he hoped they would both ‘move on’ and also wrote ‘At their best, they are both amazing,’ at the end of the trial.

4. Musk dated singer Grimes, 2018-2021

Musk moved on with the singer Grimes after his brief relationship with Heard, and they were spotted as a couple at the 2018 Met Gala.

In May 2020, they welcomed a son and named him X Æ A-Xii. Grimes and Elon Musk baby name was something no one has ever heard of and it created headlines yet again.

They broke up by September 2021 but they are on ‘great terms’, as told to Page Six by Musk.

But in December 2021 came the astonishing news when Grimes announced the pair had welcomed another baby girl that they had through surrogacy. They refer to their daughter as ‘Y’ but her name is Exa Dark Sideræl. The latest update on their relationship is that they are ‘fluid’ about it.

5. Shivon Zilis and Elon Musk, 2021

Zilis met Musk through OpenAI, the artificial-intelligence research-and-deployment nonprofit cofounded by Musk in 2015. She was born in Ontario, Canada.

Zilis was on Forbes’ 30 Under 30 list in the venture-capital category in 2015 and got the chance to contribute to Tesla in 2017. She studied at Yale, and her subjects were economics and philosophy.

Currently working as the director of operations and special projects for Neuralink, Zilis is an integral part of Musk’s brain-machine interface company.

As per reports by Insider, Musk had twins with Shivon Zilis, their names were not revealed to protect their privacy. Even their existence was not made public until court filings in August this year gave them away. Zilis wants the children to be given their father’s last name and her last name as their middle name.

6. Elon Musk girlfriend Natasha Bassett, Feb 2022

It is not clear how Bassett met Musk but they were pictured together in May 2022 for the first time. Natasha Bassett is an Australian actress who moved to the US from Australia when she was 19. She worked in New York and then moved to L.A.

While both were in the South of France for movie premieres and weddings, the two were captured together having a romantic date. On the weekend when he was supposed to attend the wedding of Hollywood agent Ari Emanuel and designer Sarah Staudinger, Musk was spotted with Natasha separately.

Reports suggest that the 27-year-old actress Natasha, took Musk’s mother to the Cannes Film Festival to attend a film premiere.

7. Elon Musk love affair with Nicole Shanahan

According to recent reports by the Wall Street Journal, Musk and Shanahan had a ‘brief’ affair in December last year. This was before her husband Sergey Brin filed for divorce.

Musk and Google co-founder, Sergey Brin’s friendship got ruined because of Elon’s alleged affair with his wife, Nicole. Sergey is now said to be selling off all of his interests in Musk’s various companies.

Brin and Musk had been friends for a long time. Sources suggest that Sergey gave Musk $500,000 in funding for Tesla in 2008 when no one else would at the peak of the financial crisis.

Brin cited the reason for his divorce as ‘irreconcilable differences’ in January.

Nicole told in an interview,

”I hope for Sergey and I to move forward with dignity, honesty and harmony for the sake of our child” “And we are both working towards that”

There have been instances where Musk tweeted to slam the Wall Street Journal’s reports by saying that the two are just friends with no romantic equation between them.

This is total bs. Sergey and I are friends and were at a party together last night!

I’ve only seen Nicole twice in three years, both times with many other people around. Nothing romantic.

Musk’s kids with Grime, son X Æ A-12 is two, and daughter Exa Dark Sideræl Musk is eight months old.
