Elon Musk’s father reveals he had a second child with his stepdaughter, Jana Bezuidenhout in 2019
“The only thing we are on Earth for is to reproduce,” said Musk’s father.
Errol Musk, 76, welcomed his baby girl with Jana, 35, in 2019 but only confirmed the news yesterday, July 14th. The two already share a 5-year-old boy, Elliot Rush who was born in 2017 but have not disclosed the name of the latest addition.
Errol admitted Jana’s pregnancy was “unplanned” and told the publication that they are no longer living together, citing their 41-year age gap.
Musk’s Father Says it’s “impractical” to be partners with someone with such an age gap.
The problem is not that she is his stepdaughter, but that she is too young to get along with..
“It’s not practical. She’s 35. Eventually if I’m still around, she might wind up back with me,” he said.
“Any man who marries a younger 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 has 7 children, while Elon has 10 (that we know of)
The wealthy South African engineer married model Maye Haldeman Musk in 1970, and had 3 children including Elon, Kimbal and Tosca.
The couple split in 1979, before Errol married Heide Bezuidenhout, a young widow who already had two children, including Jana.
The pair divorced after 18 years of marriage.
Errol helped raise Jana, who was just 4-years-old when he became her stepfather.
Elon Musk and His Father Don’t Get Along Anymore…
After Elon found out that his father impregnated his step-daughter, the father and son had a falling out.
The Tesla CEO was furious and uncomfortable with what his father had done, calling his father a “terrible human being,” in an interview with Rolling Stone.
Errol’s other children were also surprised and uncomfortable about the pregnancy.
“They still don’t like it. They still feel a bit creepy about it, because she’s their sister. Their half-sister,” Errol admitted.
Elon has not yet commented on his father’s latest baby news.
Errol said Jana and their two young children have come to stay at his home in South Africa
While the duo are no longer together, the family still spends time together every now and then.
“They spent a few days here about six months ago. And the kids were starting to get on my nerves. Then I miss them as soon as they have gone,” said Errol.
Many women have claimed that Errol has fathered their children…
Apparently, many women have claimed that Errol is the father of their children, but he did not ask Jana for a paternity test to make sure he was the father.
“I haven’t checked her DNA. But she looks just like my other daughters … So it’s pretty obvious, you know.”
“I have about six people, women who claim that their child is my child right now. Obviously they are opportunists, but there was a period in Johannesburg in the ’80s that I was going out with a different woman every night. I had plenty of dates. So it’s quite conceivable that one of them could actually come back and say, ‘this is your child.’ It’s possible,” said Errol.
Errol Musk is Open to Having More Kids
The former engineer has not ruled out the idea of having more children in the future, saying “If I could have another child, I would. I can’t see any reason not to.”
Elon Musk and his father are clearly on the same page about our “underpopulation” crisis, which Elon openly advocates for.
After welcoming twins with an executive at SpaceX, Elon Musk tweeted the following:
Doing my best to help the underpopulation crisis.
A collapsing birth rate is the biggest danger civilization faces by far.
