Technology CEO Elon was reported to be “freaking out” when he discovered his South African engineer father fathered a child with Jana, who lived with him while growing up. Errol was married to Jana’s mother Heide for 18 years and had two children together. Now Errol has told the Sun that his alleged second child with Jana was “unplanned” but that he was living with her after their son was born. The tech CEO dad said: “I haven’t tested her DNA. But she looks exactly like my other daughters. She looks like Rose and Tosca mixed up. “He looks exactly like Rousey and acts like him. So it’s obvious to know.” He added: “It was not planned. But I mean we lived together. She [Jana] she stayed here for about 18 months after Rushi was born. “But I realized she was two generations back, while her mother was a generation back when I married her. “So any man marries a woman, even if you feel very happy, it will be nice for a while. But there is a big gap… And that gap will show. “I married her mother when she was 25 and I was 45. She was probably one of the most beautiful women I’ve ever seen.” Errol said he no longer lives with Jana, but confirmed they “have a lot of affection for each other.” He added: “But the thing is, it’s not practical. He’s 35 next birthday. So he’s on. So if I’m still around, he might end up with me. It’s hard. “I mean, I’d rather have them here. But Jana came and spent a few days here about six months ago. And the kids started getting on my nerves. “Then I miss them once they’re gone.” As for having more children, Errol said: “The only thing we’re on Earth for is to reproduce. “If I could have another child, I can’t see any reason not to. “If I had thought about it, then Elon or Kimbal wouldn’t exist.” But Errol admits his other daughters were “shocked” by his relationship with Jana because “to them she was their sister”. He added: “And they still don’t like it. They still feel a little creepy about it because she’s their sister. Their half-sister.” And Errol said he’s no stranger to women claiming to have had his child. He claimed: “I have about six people, women who claim their child is my child right now. They are obviously opportunists. “There was a period in Johannesburg in the eighties when I went out every night with a different woman. I had many dates. “So it’s quite understandable that one of them could actually come back and say, that’s your kid. It is possible. “But they haven’t presented me with anything genuine. But I have a lot of people claiming.” Speaking to the Sun earlier this month, Errol appeared to hint at his son’s political ambitions. He also joked about his son’s number of children after the tech titan appeared to confirm he had twins with one of his top executives. Errol said he finds it difficult to “watch” his grandchildren. On July 6, 2022, it was revealed that Musk had welcomed two more children with Neuralink executive Sivon Gillis. Shivon, 36, is the third woman with whom the businessman fathered children. And Errol claimed his son had been labeled highly abusive by teachers when he was seven. Musk’s father revealed details of his relationship with Elon and the mogul’s mom, May, 74. He denies allegations that he has had a bad relationship with his son for years. In a 2017 interview with Rolling Stone, Elon described his dad as a “terrible man” and claimed his childhood was “painful and isolated.” One reason for the bitter rift is believed to be that Errol fathered love child Rousey with Jana, which he described as a ‘single mistake’. Meanwhile, Elon’s strained relationship with one of his children came under the spotlight last month after the teenager filed for a gender reassignment. The legal document revealed that the former Xavier Alexander Musk, 18, wanted to change her gender identity from male to female and become known as Vivian Jenna Wilson. She said she is changing her name because she “no longer lives with or wishes to be related to my biological father in any way, shape or form.” On Father’s Day, Musk tweeted that he loved all his children “so much.” When approached by The Sun, Jana declined to comment. 3 Elon’s strained relationship with one of his children came under the spotlight last monthCredit: Getty
