Elon Musk's ex reveals the dehumanising term he used for mothers of his kids

More bombshell claims from Elon Musk's ex-wife Justine Wilson are making rounds on the internet ahead of the release of Alex Gibney's upcoming documentary Musk, set for release October 16.

It has now emerged that Wilson has also alleged Musk, 55, of referring to the mothers of his 14 children as "breeders," claiming in the documentary that to him, "the breeders are interchangeable."

Wilson, who was married to Musk from 2000 to 2008 and shares six children with him, also recalled him telling her he was the "alpha" in their relationship during their wedding.

She said she first learned the term "gaslighting" through her experience with him, describing how he made her feel "lacking" throughout their marriage.

The documentary also touches on Musk's relationship with his daughter Vivian, who is transgender. Wilson claims Musk cut off Vivian's health insurance after she came out and has made no effort to repair their relationship since, though she says he did ask her to pass along that he'd "always love her."

Musk did not participate in the documentary and has called it a "hit piece" in response. His attorney, Alex Spiro, has since threatened legal action, alleging the film falsely implies Musk manipulate the 2024 presidential election.

They have also claimed that Gibney's team has refused to let Musk respond to its claims. Meanwhile, a spokesperson for the film's production company defended the documentary as fact-driven.

A Wall Street Journal report from last year also claimed Musk views his children as a "legion," reportedly telling Ashley St. Clair, with whom he shares a child, that surrogates would be needed to reach that scale. The report also alleged Musk used X to seek out more women to have children with.

In addition to his six children with Wilson and one with St. Clair, Musk has seven more children with two other women, including three with musician Grimes, and four with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis.
