Elon Musk’s vigorous dad, Errol, finally revealed he fathered a secret second love child with his alluring stepdaughter, Jana Bezuidenhout.
Errol, 76, welcomed the baby girl with Jana, 35, back in 2019. He only confirmed the news on Wednesday, bragging, “The only thing we are on Earth for is to reproduce.”
The two already share a 5-year old son named Elliot Rush, born in 2017.
Errol clearly shares the desire to procreate just like his son Elon. Errol’s admission comes just a week after it was revealed Elon fathered two children with an executive at his artificial intelligence company Neuralink, weeks before his second child with ex-girlfriend Grimes was born.
Errol admitted Jana’s pregnancy was unplanned and said that they are no longer living together, citing their 41-year age gap. “It’s not practical. She’s 35,” Errol declared. “Eventually if I’m still around, she might wind up back with me.”
He added, “Any man who marries a younger woman, even if you feel very sprightly, it’s going to be nice for a while, but there’s a big gap … and that gap is going to show itself.”
The Musk family tree seems to be rather complicated and is expanding more so by the day. Errol already has 7 children, while his son Elon has fathered 10 at this time.
Errol, who is a wealthy South African engineer, married model Maye Haldeman Musk in 1970, with whom he had three children: Elon, Kimbal and Tosca.
The couple seperated in 1979, before Errol went on to wed Heide Bezuidenhout, a young widow who already had two children, including Jana.
Errol and Heide had two biological children together, but he also helped raise Jana, who was just 4 years old when he became her stepfather. Errol and Heide eventually divorced after an 18-year marriage.
However, the Musk family was subsequently shocked when Jana became pregnant with Errol’s baby back in 2017. It led to a bitter falling out between Errol and Elon, with the Tesla CEO furious that his father had impregnated his stepsister.
Errol’s other children were also stunned and uncomfortable about the surprise pregnancy. “They still don’t like it,” Errol admitted in his new interview. “They still feel a bit creepy about it, because she’s their sister. Their half-sister.”
Elon has not publicly commented on his father’s latest baby admission. The pair are still estranged, with Elon describing his dad as a terrible human being in an interview.
Errol and Jana’s son, born in 2017, is named Elliot Rush and is nicknamed “Rushi.” Errol has not disclosed the name of their daughter, who was born in 2019.
Even though the two are no longer a couple, Errol said Jana and their two children, have come to stay at his home in Pretoria, South Africa.
“They spent a few days here about six months ago. And the kids were starting to get on my nerves,” he candidly stated. “Then I miss them as soon as they have gone.”
