Canadian model and dietician Maye Musk couldn’t hide her pride when her son, Elon Musk, received praise from former U.S. President Donald Trump.

On March 5, Trump expressed admiration for Elon’s hard work in a tweet during a joint address to Congress, which prompted Maye to share her own feelings of pride.

Trump’s Recognition of Elon’s Work

In his tweet, Trump acknowledged Elon Musk’s relentless effort and contributions.

“Thank you, Elon, you are working very hard.

Everyone appreciates it, even this side,” said the former president, as reported by the Times of India.

This public recognition by Trump seemed to deeply resonate with Maye, who expressed her joy by sharing a video on X (formerly Twitter) with the caption, “Elon Proud mom.”

An Incredible Experience with Air Force One

Maye Musk also shared a special moment she had with her son and grandson X, when they traveled together on Air Force One.

The three of them had the rare privilege of flying aboard the prestigious aircraft, followed by a ride in the Marine One helicopter. “X, @elonmusk and I flew in Air Force One, then in the huge helicopter Marine One.

An incredible experience. Thank you @realDonaldTrump,” Maye wrote, reflecting on the surreal experience.

Elon Musk’s Growing Family and Maye’s Praise for Her Son

In recent weeks, there have been rumors that Elon Musk may have fathered two more children, which would bring his total to 14 children. Despite his growing family, Maye Musk has continued to stand by her son.

She has often spoken about her admiration for him, recalling that she knew Elon was a genius from a young age.

During an interview promoting her 2021 memoir, A Woman Makes a Plan: Advice for a Lifetime of Adventure, Beauty, and Success, she recalled, “Well at 3, I knew he was a genius, but you still don’t know if he’s going to do great things.”
