Billionaire Elon Musk and Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis have revealed the birth of their fourth child together. Zilis shared the news on X on Friday, stating: “Discussed with Elon and, in light of beautiful Arcadia’s birthday, we felt it was better to also just share directly about our wonderful and incredible son Seldon Lycurgus. Built like a juggernaut, with a solid heart of gold. Love him so much.” Musk responded with a heart emoji.
The couple previously welcomed twins, Strider and Azure, as well as their daughter, Arcadia. The announcement comes weeks after influencer Ashley St. Clair claimed she had also had a child with Musk. In mid-February, she posted on X: “Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father,” explaining that she had initially kept the news private to protect the child’s safety. Musk has not publicly addressed her statement.
Musk also shares six children with his first wife, Justine Wilson: Nevada Alexander (who passed away at 10 weeks old), twins Griffin and Vivian, and triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian. Additionally, he has three children with musician Grimes—sons X Æ A-12 and Techno Mechanicus, and daughter Exa Dark Sideræl.
The Tesla CEO has often spoken about the dangers of declining birth rates. In a July 2022 post on X, he warned that “a collapsing birth rate is the biggest danger civilization faces by far” and stated that he was doing his “best to help the underpopulation crisis.”
