Elon Musk's father has baby with step-daughter, he has known since she was four - Sensationalist Headlines

Errol Musk, 72, described the 10-month-old baby boy he had with Jana Bezuidenhout, 30, as “exquisite”. He married her mother Heide when Jana was four but told The Sunday Times he did not consider her to be his stepdaughter because she had been raised away from the family for long periods of time. Not a lot of people are reporting about this, very interesting though. Source: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/03/25/elon-musks-father-has-baby-step-daughter-has-known-since-four/

Well they were two consenting adults presumably. So at least there's that. Not that it makes it less weird. Poor kid who is going to grow up with a 70-80-90 something- father though.

is elon actually close to his family in the first place?

From this interview: But there was another side to Musk's father that was just as important to making Elon who he is. "He was such a terrible human being," Musk shares. "You have no idea." His voice trembles, and he discusses a few of those things, but doesn't go into specifics. "My dad will have a carefully thought-out plan of evil," he says. "He will plan evil." ... Elon's eyes turn red as he continues discussing his dad. "You have no idea about how bad. Almost every crime you can possibly think of, he has done. Almost every evil thing you could possibly think of, he has done. Um..." There is clearly something Musk wants to share, but he can't bring himself to utter the words, at least not on the record. "It's so terrible, you can't believe it." That sounds like a "no", at least where his father is concerned.

Musks whole family never really talked about their father/husband

people talk about musk being a super villain but it sounds like his father might be the super villain

Tesla self-driving cars to automatically drive him to the nearest SpaceX spaceport, BFR to get him off the planet before he completes his evil plan.

Or trying to escape his father by going to mars...

Musk had such a terrible childhood. I remember he still suffers from complications brought on him when bullies threw him down stairs and beat him until he lost consciousness. If he ever turned out to be a supervillain, I really couldn't blame the guy.

The first time that emote has a reason to exist!

I'm glad that whatever traumas Elon Musk has been through, he became the man we have today, rather than some degenerate like his Father comes off as.

He won't even let his kids meet him.

wow that sucks, feel bad for musk that hes got such a mong for a dad

i still don't get this is this incest?

its not incest but its very fucked up

Mr Musk senior, who is a millionaire and made his fortune through engineering, disputed that characterisation but has admitted shooting dead three intruders in his home in South Africa. He was charged with manslaughter but said he was acting in self-defence and was acquitted. wow damn alrighty then

Good thing they cut ties with old bastard and do not visit him anymore, really dodged a bullet.

probably not man i think incest is only incest if it involves blood relatives, is she a blood relative probably not?

Incest is just between blood relatives. The cut off is at first cousins, any further distance in relation and it's no longer incest. At least that's how it is around here. So since there is no blood relation between the two, it's no longer incest. Still creepy, though.

His father is white. There is something short of a genocide going on there these days so it probably was self defence.

I dont wanna defend the man, but south Africa is a shit show at this current time.

Just like Woody Allen

This explains some of Elon's funky behavior, if his dad is as insane as he says.

yeah looks like its passed down in the genes
