Elon Musk is now a father of 12.

And in a recent interview with Page Six, the entrepreneur opened up about the headlines on the birth of his 12th child.

According to reports, Musk and Neuralink director of special projects, Shivon Zilis, welcomed a baby into the world earlier this year. And that’s about all that is known about the child.

While the child’s name and gender remain private, Musk is pushing back against reports that call his child’s birth “a secret.”

“All our friends and family know,” Musk told Page Six. “Failure to issue a press release, which would be bizarre, does not mean ‘secret.’”

This little one is the third child Musk shares with Zilis.

He shares six more children with his ex-wife Justine Wilson and three more with singer Grimes.

While it’s unclear if Musk plans to welcome any more children into the world, in 2022, he told Page Six that he applauds big families and intends on having “as many (kids) as I am able to spend time with and be a good father.”

This 2022 interview came after Musk announced the birth of the twins he shares with Zilis. On his platform, X, Musk wrote, “doing my best to help the underpopulation crisis. A collapsing birth rate is the biggest danger civilisation faces by far.” – The Charlotte Observer/Tribune News Service
