Elon Musk’s personal life is back in the headlines this week, with the billionaire’s relationship with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis taking center stage.
The pair, who have kept their romance largely out of the public eye, seem to be getting more comfortable with visibility, especially after an appearance at Mar-a-Lago.
Musk, known for his ties to Donald Trump and his ventures in the tech world, was photographed alongside Zilis at a black-tie gala on Thursday.
The event, hosted by the First Policy Institute, saw Musk smiling beside Trump and Argentine President Javier Milei, while Zilis appeared in the background.
A Family Affair at Mar-a-Lago
Musk wasn’t just seen with Zilis at the gala, though.
He was also spotted carrying a young girl, believed to be Azure, one of the twins he shares with Zilis.
Their twins were born in 2021, and earlier this year, Zilis welcomed a third child with Musk.
In another image from the event, Musk and Zilis stood hand-in-hand, surrounded by their children near a swimming pool at the estate.
The presence of their children raised eyebrows, with many speculating that Musk might be going public with his relationship, which has largely been shrouded in mystery until now.
The Texas Mansion and Growing Family
The appearance at Mar-a-Lago comes shortly after reports that Zilis had moved into a luxurious $35 million compound Musk purchased in Austin, Texas.
This property was acquired with the intention of housing all of Musk’s twelve children, and it’s believed Zilis has already settled into one of the homes on the sprawling estate.
This adds to the growing speculation about Musk’s personal life, especially after his complex relationships with multiple women over the years.
Zilis and Musk’s relationship first came to light when she gave birth to twins with him in 2021, around the same time Musk was expecting another child with his ex, Grimes.
A Complicated History
Musk’s relationship with Zilis has a complicated backstory.
Reports reveal that Musk donated sperm to Zilis through IVF, the same method he used to have children with his first wife, Justine Musk.
It was later revealed that Grimes, Musk’s partner at the time, only discovered Musk was the father of Zilis’s twins a month after they were born.
To make matters more complex, Musk allegedly took the name “Valkyrie,” which he and Grimes had chosen for their daughter, and gave it to one of Zilis’s twins.
Eventually, Musk decided not to name either child Valkyrie, instead opting for the names Strider and Azure.
Musk’s Family Plans and Future
In June, Musk confirmed he had welcomed a third child with Zilis but kept the child’s name and gender under wraps.
While Musk has remained tight-lipped about the specifics of his relationship with Zilis, his public statements about his fears of depopulation provide some context.
Musk has long been outspoken about what he sees as one of humanity’s biggest threats—declining birth rates—and has made his own reproductive efforts a part of his solution.
His quest to “repopulate the earth” has led to him fathering twelve children across multiple relationships, with no signs that he plans to stop anytime soon.
The Bigger Picture
Musk’s family plans have often made headlines, as he balances his personal life with his vast business empire.
His first marriage to Justine Musk resulted in six children, one of whom tragically passed away shortly after birth.
Musk later had three children with Grimes, including the famously unique names Exa Dark Sideræl, Tau Techno Mechanicus, and X AE A-XII.
Musk’s desire to create a large family is also evident in his recent purchase of a 14,000-square-foot mansion in Texas, which he bought to provide separate living spaces for his children and ensure he can spend time with his youngest ones.
While it’s unclear how Musk’s exes feel about his latest family arrangements, it’s clear that Zilis is already a significant part of his life.
Her move into one of Musk’s properties signals that this relationship is moving forward, but the details of Musk’s complex family dynamics remain a topic of curiosity.
