Elon Musk's Dad, 76, Says 'Why Not' Donate Sperm To 'High-Class Women'

Billionaire Elon Musk has a lot on his plate right now. Photos of him going shirtless on a yacht in Greece went viral on Monday, and by Tuesday, a judge set a date for his legal battle with Twitter.

The Tesla CEO signed a $44 billion dollar deal to take over the social media company in April; however, Musk now seeks to back out of the deal, alleging that Twitter has misrepresented the amount of bot and spam accounts on the platform.

If his legal drama wasn't enough, the SpaceX founder is facing a new kind of drama. His father, Errol Musk, 76, just confirmed last week that he welcomed a second love child with his stepdaughter, 35, and it seems he's ready to welcome more children into the world.

As reported by the New York Post, a company in Colombia is asking him to donate his sperm to several South American women only about a week after he confirmed that he had welcomed a second love child with his stepdaughter.

Errol claims that he has been asked to donate his sperm by the company because it contains the same genes as his son, who is the world's richest man, at least according to Forbes.

In a recent conversation with The Sun, Errol Musk revealed, “I’ve got a company who want me to donate sperm to impregnate high-class women." He added, “They say, ‘Why go to Elon when they can go to the actual person who created Elon?’”

Although Elon has famously fathered at least ten children, several via surrogate, his father, a wealthy South African engineer, has had at least seven children with three different women. In his previous interview with The Sun, he had claimed "The only thing we are on Earth for is to reproduce."

So when he was asked to donate his sperm for some nice perks, Errol's response was, "Why not?" Errol didn't name the company, although he did say that “They have offered me first-class travel and five-star hotel accommodation and all that sort of stuff.”

Right now, it's hard to say how Elon, 51, feels about the offer. They had a falling out after Errol announced that he had impregnated Elon's stepsister, Jana Bezuidenhout, in 2017. They welcomed a son named Elliot Rush. Last week, Errol Musk confirmed that he and Jana had welcomed a daughter in 2019.

Errol had married Maye Haldeman Musk in 1970 and had three children: Elon, Kimbal, and Tosca. After nine years of marriage, the couple went their separate ways. Soon after, Errol married Heide Bezuidenhout, a young widow who already had two children, including Jana. Jana was only 4 years old when her parents married and he helped raise her from that time.

Errol and Heide divorced after 18 years of marriage. In his interview with The Sun, Errol claimed that he and Jana are no longer together, citing their large age difference.

Errol admitted that the pregnancy was “unplanned” and said that they are no longer living together, given their 41-year age gap. “It’s not practical. She’s 35,” Errol said, adding, “Eventually, if I’m still around, she might wind up back with me.”

“Any man who marries a [younger] woman, even if you feel very sprightly, it’s going to be nice for a while, but there’s a big gap … and that gap is going to show itself,” he added.

Errol also claims that other women are claiming that he fathered their children as well. Although he at first dismissed them as "opportunists," he later admitted that it was possible he has fathered other children without his knowledge.

“I have about six people, women who claim that their child is my child right now. Obviously, they are opportunists,” he stated. “[But] there was a period in Johannesburg in the ’80s that I was going out with a different woman every night. I had plenty of dates. So it’s quite conceivable that one of them could actually come back and say, ‘This is your child.’ It’s possible.”

His son, Elon Musk, has ten children of his own. Earlier this month, the news broke that he fathered twins with a 36-year-old executive at his Neuralink company, Shivon Zilis. Shortly after the news started circulating, Musk tweeted that he was "Doing my best to help the underpopulation crisis, adding, "A collapsing birth rate is the biggest danger civilization faces by far."
