Elon Musk is a dad once again — to his alleged 14th child — describing the boy as “built like a juggernaut, with a solid heart of gold”.

Elon Musk is a dad once again — to his alleged 14th child.

The tech tycoon has welcomed a fourth kid with Shivon Zilis, the top Neuralink executive announced via X — which Mr Musk also owns — on Friday.

“Discussed with Elon and, in light of beautiful Arcadia’s birthday, we felt it was better to also just share directly about our wonderful and incredible son Seldon Lycurgus,” the 38-year-old gushed.

“Built like a juggernaut, with a solid heart of gold. Love him so much.”

Mr Musk, 53, commented with a love heart emoji.

The post also revealed the name of his and Ms Zilis’ third child, which was previously unknown.

Bloomberg reported in June 2024 that the pair had secretly welcomed a third kid together at the start of the year.

The next day, Mr Musk exclusively confirmed the birth of his 12th child to Page Six, telling us, “As for ‘secretly fathered’, that is … false. All our friends and family know. Failure to issue a press release, which would be bizarre, does not mean ‘secret’.”

The Bloomberg article was titled, ‘Elon Wants You to Have More Babies’, and focused on his obsession with birthrates.

“Many countries are already well below replacement rate, and the trend is that almost all will be. This is simply a fact, not a ‘debunked theory’,” he told Page Six in response, adding that “2.1 kids is replacement rate, and obviously the world as a whole will soon drop below that point”.

The billionaire also sent us a link to statistics on fertility rates from the World Bank Group.

“Bravo to big families,” he told us the following July.

As for how many kids he would like to have, he replied at the time, “As many as I am able to spend time with and be a good father [to].”

The twins were born just one month before he and alt-pop singer Grimes had daughter Exa Dark Sideræl via surrogate. He also shares two other children with Grimes and six with ex-wife Justine Wilson.

Seldon is believed to be the Tesla mogul’s 14th child, as he has yet to respond to Ashley St. Clair’s claims.

The conservative activist, 26, recently filed a paternity lawsuit against the SpaceX chief executive in which she asked for sole custody of her five-month-old son.

Ms St. Clair stated in her filing that she’s confident Mr Musk is the father of her newborn because she “did not have sexual intercourse with any other male during the time the child was conceived”.

She included in her complaint a photo she had sent the businessman that showed her holding her baby boy at the hospital, to which he allegedly replied, “I look forward to seeing you and him this weekend.”

Mr Musk then allegedly texted her in November 2024, “I want to knock you up again”, and allegedly reiterated a similar sentiment as recently as February 2, saying, “Well, we do have a legion of kids to make.”

The duo’s spicy online exchanges — in which they publicly alluded to different sex positions — have since resurfaced.
