Elon Musk Wants ‘Smart People’ To Have More Children, Ex-Wife Says

Shivon Zilis, the mother of two of Elon Musk’s children and an employee at his company Neuralink, has revealed that the billionaire tech mogul thinks people with high intelligence should reproduce at higher rates.

“[Musk] really wants smart people to have kids,” Zilis stated in an excerpt from Musk’s biography by Walter Isaacson.

In addition, the biography also confirms that Musk has a third child with Canadian singer Grimes. The baby’s name has been revealed to be Techno Mechanicus.

The CEO of Tesla, SpaceX, and X (formerly known as Twitter), has expressed his concern about declining birthrates. In response to reports that he had secretly welcomed children with Zilis, Musk tweeted that he was “doing my best to help the underpopulation crisis.”

Musk has also described declining birthrates as a “much bigger risk to civilization than global warming.” He has voiced his concerns about declining birthrates since 2017.

Musk has had 11 children with three women. In addition to the twins he has with Zilis, Musk has three children with Grimes and five with his ex-wife Justine Wilson. Musk’s first child with Wilson died of sudden infant death syndrome at ten weeks old.

He has also been married and divorced twice to actress Talulah Riley, though the two did not have any children.

Vivian, one of his kids from his marriage with Wilson, is transgender and has broken ties with her father. Musk blames the estrangement with her daughter on the “woke” school she attended.
