During a recent interview, Errol Musk, the father of Tesla and SpaceX company president Elon Musk, admitted to having fathered a child with his stepdaughter Jana Bezuidenhout. Errol Musk is 76 years old. In 2017, Errol and Jana had a child named Elliot Rush, who is now five years old. A relationship between Errol Musk and his stepdaughter surfaced in 2018. It is, however, the first time he has confirmed the rumour.

Who Is Jana Bezuidenhout?

In an interview with the British newspaper The Sun, Musk said, "The only thing we are on Earth for is to reproduce." Additionally, he mentioned that the second child was an unanticipated pregnancy. He claimed that although he has not yet performed a DNA test on the second child, her characteristics resemble those of his daughters Rose and Tosca.

Furthermore, Errol Musk said that the second child resembles Rushi greatly in terms of appearance and behaviour, making it clear with whom he had the child. Errol Musk's second wife Heide Bezuidenhout is the mother of Jana Bezuidenhout.

After divorcing Elon Musk's mother, Maye, in 1979, Errol wed Heide. The older Musk became Jana's stepfather when she was four years old. With Heide, Errol had two children throughout the course of their 18-year marriage.

According to Errol Musk, Jana's first pregnancy shocked the Musk family and caused a rift between Elon Musk and his father. "They still don't like it ..they still feel a bit creepy about it, because she's their sister. Their half-sister," Errol said. 

Recently, it was widely reported that weeks before the birth of his kid with girlfriend Grimes, Elon had two children with a 36-year-old executive at his artificial intelligence startup Neuralink.

With three separate partners, Musk has fathered nine children: six with his first wife Justine Musk, two with Claire Boucher, and two with Grimes. One of the six children Musk and Justine had died at age 10 due to sickness.
