Elon Musk's dad says child with stepdaughter was unplanned
According to New York Post, the 76-year-old welcomed a baby girl with his 35-year-old stepdaughter back in 2019.
He, however, confirmed the news on Wednesday while bragging to The Sun after news about his son siring more kids in 2021 came out.

“The only thing we are on Earth for is to reproduce," he said.
Errol admitted Jana’s pregnancy was unplanned and told the publication that they are no longer living together, attributing the reason to their 41-year age gap.
“It’s not practical. She’s 35. Eventually, if I’m still around, she might wind up back with me. 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," he added.
The two already share a 5-year-old boy, Elliot Rush, who was born in 2017.
The Musk family tree, however complicated, is growing more so by the day. Errol has seven children, while Elon has fathered 10 offspring.
Errol, a wealthy South African engineer, married model Maye Haldeman Musk in 1970, with whom he had three children; Elon, Kimbal and Tosca.
The couple split 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 18-year marriage.
Elon Musk welcomes twins with employee
Elon Musk expanded his family in 2021 after it emerged that he had two other kids with his company's project director.
Musk and Shivon Zilis welcomed twins in November 2021, a month before he and his on-and-off lover Grimes also had a baby.
Musk and Shivon had gone to court in April to change the names of their kids to include his name and that of the kids' mum.
