Tesla CEO Elon Musk fathered a third child with an executive at Neuralink, his brain-chip implant company, according to a report.
Neuralink director Shivon Zilis had Musk’s child — whose name was not released — earlier this year, Bloomberg revealed Saturday.
The birth came after Musk revealed in 2022 that he and Zilis had twins, which were reportedly conceived through in vitro fertilization.
Musk, the world’s second richest man with some $200 billion, has fathered at least 12 children — six of them in the past five years — including three with Zillis and three with Canadian popstar Grimes, according to Bloomberg.
Musk has previously joked that he’s “Doing my best to help the underpopulation crisis,” a problem he views as “the biggest danger civilization faces.”
On Thursday, Musk posted a chart claiming that Europe is suffering from a “fertility crisis,” saying “Civilization may end with a bang or with a whimper (in adult diapers).”
