Errol Musk’s Shocking Remarks on Grandson’s Tragic Death Spark Backlash
In a startling and controversial statement, Errol Musk has stirred emotions with his claims regarding the heartbreaking loss of his grandson, Nevada Musk.
“I believe that if Elon hears this, he’s going to shoot me or something like that,” Errol Musk said during an appearance on the Wide Awake podcast. “But nevertheless, that is what I believe. They were excessively wealthy and had an excessive number of nannies. Then he had five more children with the same woman—all boys—and each of them had their own nanny. Are you keeping up with me?”
Describing the aftermath of Elon Musk’s divorce from Justine Musk, Errol continued:
“When they split, there were six nannies on this side and six nannies on that side. It was a rather peculiar circumstance.”

Musk Family’s Personal Struggles Amidst Public Scrutiny
Elon Musk has always been an open book when it comes to his personal life, but his recent reflections on a heartbreaking tragedy reveal a vulnerability not often seen in the public eye. The CEO of Tesla shared the deeply emotional details surrounding the passing of his firstborn son, Nevada, revealing that he was placed on life support for three days before ultimately making the painful decision to remove him from it. Musk shared that, “When he passed away, I was holding him in my arms.”
This sorrowful revelation comes at a time when Ashley St. Clair, an author, has publicly claimed she gave birth to Musk’s thirteenth child just five months ago. In an emotional statement, St. Clair expressed her desire to protect the privacy of their child, saying:
“I have not previously disclosed this in order to protect our child’s privacy and safety, but in recent days, it has become clear that tabloid media intends to do so, regardless of the harm it will cause.”
She added that her goal is to “allow our child to grow in a normal and safe environment.”
Increased Public Scrutiny on Musk
Musk has recently come under a heightened level of scrutiny, particularly following his appointment by President Trump to a newly established position within the administration. His role, designed to reorganize public expenditures and streamline bureaucracy, has only added more attention to his already-public persona.
Vivian Musk Criticizes Father Amid Alleged Nazi Salute Incident
In the midst of this heightened attention, Vivian Musk, Musk’s daughter, voiced her strong disapproval of her father’s actions following allegations that he had made a Nazi salute during Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20. Though Vivian did not directly name her father, she made her feelings clear on Twitter:
“I’m just going to say let’s call a spade a f**king spade… Especially if there were two spades done in succession based on the reaction of the first spade.”
The implications of her tweet were clear, as many speculated it was a pointed criticism toward her father’s actions.
The Musk family has undeniably been navigating personal and public challenges, with their lives in the spotlight now more than ever before.
Vivian Musk responded to the controversy surrounding her tweet with a series of clarifications, insisting that her comments had been misinterpreted. She explained, “I don’t know why you all are reacting with such vigor, it’s extremely obvious that I’m only talking about card suits.” In an attempt to provide further context, she added, “To clarify, I have attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and this was obviously just an accident that some individuals happened to interpret as meaning something other than just card suits.”
She continued to assert, “Considering that there is no evidence to suggest that I am not only referring to card suits, I just want to point out that the fact that people are assuming that I am not just talking about card suits is a clear indication of how dishonest individuals and the media can be.”
Vivian’s message became more pointed as she addressed the controversy directly: “For those who can read between the lines, do y’all understand how f**king easy this is to do? Honey, there is plausible deniability. If I may say so.”
The accusations that Musk made an antisemitic gesture, following her tweet, were firmly refuted by Elon Musk. In a statement on X, he responded, “Frankly, they need better dirty tricks. ‘Everyone is Hitler’ is an allegation that is sooo tired.”
This back-and-forth has ignited significant public discourse surrounding the Musk family, as Vivian defends herself against what she sees as misleading interpretations, while Elon works to challenge the ongoing accusations with a defiant stance.
