A photo has emerged showing Elon Musk's transgender daughter.
The 20-year-old was born a man but changed his gender.
Recall that the Chief Executive Officer of Tesla and Space X, Elon Musk, on Monday, said he was “tricked” into granting permission for his child to undergo puberty blockers.
“It’s evil. You’re taking kids who are far below the age of consent. It’s very possible for adults to manipulate children who are having an actual identity crisis into believing that they are the wrong gender,” Musk disclosed in a live interview with psychologist Jordan Peterson on X on Monday.
Musk added, “Well, it happened to one of my older boys. I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys, Xavier. This was really before I had any understanding of what was going on, and we had COVID going on, so there was a lot of confusion. And I was told Xavier might commit suicide.”
The billionaire business mogul said these while explaining the rationale behind his decision to relocate SpaceX’s headquarters from California, citing the state’s new legislation, Assembly Bill 1955, which enables schools to keep a child’s sexual orientation or gender identity confidential from their parents.
This move came after California Governor, Gavin Newsom, signed the bill into law on Monday, July 15, 2024.
Facts about Vivian:
Named Xavier at birth, Vivian was born a twin with her brother Griffin in 2004 in California.
She attended Crossroads K-12 school in Santa Monica, alongside her younger siblings, Kai, Saxon, and Damian, where annual tuition costs up to $50,000.
Vivian reportedly tried to hide her true gender identity from her dad for several years.
She officially adopted her mother, Justine’s, maiden name at the age of 18 in 2022, according to court filings.
She filed a petition to change both her name and legal gender, and was quoted as saying she “no longer wishes to be related” to her father “in any way”.
A Santa Monica judge issued a new birth certificate that reflected her changed name, and gender, while their ruling simply stated: “Xavier Alexander Musk to Vivian Jenna Wilson. The gender of the petitioner is changed from male to female.”
Vivian filed the petition just three days after her 18th birthday, though the court documents weren’t made public until the day after Father’s Day.
Vivian and her father reportedly have a strained relationship, with Musk disagreeing with her political views, claiming she believes that all rich people are evil.
“She went beyond socialism to being a full communist and thinking that anyone rich is evil,” the billionaire said, blaming Vivian’s education at the progressive California school as the reason for her political views.
