New Delhi: Tech billionaire Elon Musk welcomed his third child with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis earlier this year, according to a Bloomberg report. The couple, known for their work in technology and business, choose to keep the news private. Musk who already has twins Strider and Azure with Zilis born in November 2021, has not revealed the total number of his children, though he is publically known to have 11 kids. 

Reports suggest Musk had inappropriate relationships

Neuralink's director of special projects, Zilis, has not answered reporters' questions about the recent report. If the story is true, it would be true that Elon Musk now has 12 children. Public records show that Musk, who already has twins with Zilis, asked a court to change the kids' last names to his own and include their mother's last name as their middle name. 

The news about Musk's third child came just days after a Wall Street Journal report claimed he had inappropriate relationships with female SpaceX employees. A former SpaceX employee said Musk often asked her to have children with him. Later she refused and was denied a raise, she left the company with a large severance package.
