People have learnt a bit about Elon Musk’s family, in particular his father, and they’ve taken to social media to share their thoughts.
It’s been a wild ride for Musk lately, as he became a part of Donald Trump’s administration as head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) before his recent departure before getting locked into a fierce feud with Trump soon after.
Musk kicked it off by firstly criticising the 78-year-old’s ‘big beautiful bill’ by calling it a ‘disgusting abomination’, then later accused the US President of being named in the Jeffrey Epstein files; however, he has since taken this back.
Amidst all this, it came to the internet’s attention that the Tesla CEO’s 79-year-old father, Errol Musk, has two children with his former stepdaughter, Jana Bezuidenhout, 37, in 2017 and 2019.
Errol had previously been married to Jana’s mother, Heide, in the 1990s, when Jana was 4 years old, and the two split in 2010.
Seven years later, when Jana was 30, she and Errol began a romantic relationship after ‘reconnecting’ following her breakup at the time, with the South African businessman telling The Times: “We were lonely, lost people. One thing led to another — you can call it God’s plan or nature’s plan.”
An X account mentioned this, adding: “When I learned this against my will it f****d me up for at least a week.”
