Claims Circulate of Elon Musk's Over 100 Children

Multiple sources report that journalist Elizabeth Bruenig of The Atlantic has claimed Elon Musk could have fathered over 100 children, far more than the 14 publicly known, citing individuals familiar with Musk's private life and a Wall Street Journal exposé. The speculation is fueled by accounts that Musk requires the mothers of his children to sign non-disclosure agreements and provides substantial financial incentives to keep details private, with one woman allegedly offered $15 million and a $100,000 monthly stipend. Podcast host Alisyn Camerota described Musk as highly litigious, suing those who break confidentiality. Critics view this behavior as at odds with Musk's public alignment with 'family values,' noting he reportedly refuses to have his name on some children's birth certificates and is estranged from at least one child. The reports also mention Musk's preference for using IVF and selecting certain characteristics in his children, further raising questions about the ethics and motivations behind his reported quest for a large progeny. These revelations have sparked debate about hypocrisy and the social implications of Musk's actions.
