Elon Musk’s Son Picks His Nose and Wipes It on Donald Trump’s Desk – E! Online

Elon’s father is an engineer and like Elon, was born in South Africa.

Though Errol said in a 2015 Forbes interview that he used to often take his kids on trips overseas—“Their mother and I split up when they were quite young and the kids stayed with me. I took them all over the world.”—his relationship with Elon isn’t picture perfect.

In an emotional 2017 Rolling Stone interview, Elon criticized his father and talked about his upbringing, saying that after his parents split, he moved in with his dad, which, he said, “was not a good idea.”

However, Errol told Rolling Stone, “I love my children and would readily do whatever for them.”

Following his divorce from Maye, Errol married Heide, whose daughter Jana Bezuidenhout was 4 years old at the time. Errol and Heide went on to have two daughters together before they, too, broke up. 

Years later, Jana reached out to Errol following a breakup of her own. “We were lonely, lost people,” Errol explained in a 2018 interview with The Sunday Times. “One thing led to another—you can call it God’s plan or nature’s plan.”

Either way, the duo became romantic and welcomed son Elliott in 2017 and then a baby girl in 2019. As Errol put it to The Sun, “The only thing we are on Earth for is to reproduce. If I could have another child I would. I can’t see any reason not to.”
