Elon Musk’s former wife, Justine Wilson, has spoken about his estrangement from their transgender daughter, Vivian Wilson, alleging that he viewed her transition as the “death of a child”.
In the upcoming documentary Musk, Justine said Vivian was hurt by her father’s public claim that he had lost her to the “woke mind virus”.
“Elon was telling her, through telling the world, what that point of view actually was. And Elon never tried to repair things, that’s not in his nature,” she said.
Justine also alleged that, after Vivian came out as transgender, Musk asked her to tell their daughter, “I’ll always love her”, but cancelled Vivian’s health insurance the following day. Vivian dropped her father’s surname several years ago amid their estrangement. She recently appeared in a series of advertisements critical of artificial intelligence, saying: “Some things aren’t meant to be fixed.”
