Elon Musk’s Transgender Daughter Says She Will Leave the U.S. After Donald Trump’s Win—Amid Dad’s Plans for $35 Million Family ‘Compound’

The 53-year-old Tesla founder has made no secret of his concerns about decreasing birth rates in the U.S., claiming in a July 2022 post shared on X (which he owns) that “a collapsing birth rate is the biggest danger civilization faces by far.”

Musk, who is worth around $270 billion, according to Forbes, appears to have been on something of a personal mission to prevent that so-called crisis by fathering as many children as possible—welcoming 12 children since 2002. His firstborn baby died of sudden infant death syndrome at just 10 weeks old.

The businessman shares five children—Vivian, who was born Xavier Musk, and her twin brother Griffin, as well as triplets Saxon, Damian, and Kai—with his first wife Wilson, whom he divorced in 2008 after eight years of marriage.

He also has three children with Shivon Zilis, a Neuralink executive who welcomed Musk’s twins in 2021, then confirmed that she had given birth to a third child with the billionaire in 2024.

Musk also has three kids with musician Grimes, whose real name is Claire Boucher: X Æ A-Xii, 4, who is known as “X;” Exa Dark Sideræl, 3, who is known as “Y;” and Techno Mechanicus, who was secretly born in 2022 and goes by “Tau.”

Grimes and Musk have been embroiled in a bitter custody battle over their three children since 2023; however, it appears that any legal tension between them may have thawed in recent weeks, with People reporting that the duo has been looking at homes together in Bel-Air, CA, in order to create a similar family “compound” setup to the one he reportedly boasts in Austin.

An unnamed insider told the outlet that the ex couple, who are not currently thought to be in a relationship, “went house hunting” in the upscale neighborhood, adding that Grimes, 36, also looked at a property in Upper Bel-Air.

It’s unclear whether his plans for his Austin compound have changed in recent days, or if he is hoping to create similar setups in Texas and California.

What is pointedly clear, however, is that his daughter Vivian currently has no plans to reside in any compound he may set up—having previously slammed her father as a “serial adulterer” in a blistering series of posts on Threads.

“You single-handedly disillusioned me with how gullible we are as a species because somehow people keep believing you for reasons that continue to evade me,” she wrote.

Her posts came not long after her father branded her a “communist” and claimed he was “tricked” into allowing her to begin taking puberty blockers.

“I was tricked into doing this,” he said during a July 2024 interview. “It wasn’t explained to me that puberty blockers are actually just sterilization drugs.

“I lost my son, essentially. They call it ‘deadnaming’ for a reason. The reason they call it ‘deadnaming’ is because your son is dead, so my son… is dead, killed by the woke mind virus.’
