'It's weird': Elon Musk's daughter learns about 13th half-sibling online
What's the story
Vivian Wilson, the estranged daughter of Tesla CEO Elon Musk, recently learned about her possible 13th half-sibling via social media.
The 21-year-old sounded surprised in a TikTok video, saying, "Wow, if I had a nickel for every time I found out I had half-siblings through Reddit, I'd have two nickels...which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice, right?"
The revelation came after columnist Ashley St. Clair announced she had given birth to Musk's alleged 13th child.
Sibling revelation
Vivian's previous discovery of half-brother Techno Mechanicus
Vivian—Musk's transgender daughter from his first wife Justine Wilson—also revealed she learned about her half-brother Techno Mechanicus through Reddit.
The incident took place in 2022 when she and Grimes (who has three children with Musk) were "not talking," which is why she was surprised to learn about another sibling online.
In a separate post on Threads, she shared, "I don't know how many siblings I have' goes really hard on 2 truths and a lie though, I will admit."
Birth announcement
St. Clair's announcement of Musk's alleged 13th child
St. Clair, who is famous for her book Elephants Are Not Birds and a contributor to the conservative satire site Babylon Bee, revealed the birth of her child with Musk on social media.
"Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father," she wrote on X on Friday.
Later, in an interview with The New York Post, she claimed that Musk wanted her to keep their baby a secret for everyone's safety.
Parental agreement
St. Clair and Musk's ongoing discussions about child's upbringing
A representative for St. Clair said she and Musk had been "privately working toward the creation of an agreement about raising their child for some time."
The rep was disappointed that a tabloid reporter's actions disrupted this confidential process.
They are now waiting for Musk to publicly acknowledge his parental role to end speculation and trust he'll finalize their agreement quickly, prioritizing the wellbeing and security of the shared child.
