Elon Musk’s estranged transgender daughter has revealed that she found out about her latest alleged half-sibling not through family, but via Reddit.
Vivian Jenna Wilson, 21, took to TikTok to share the surreal experience, highlighting an unsettling pattern and noted this isn’t the first time she has learned about a potential new Musk sibling online.
Using a popular TikTok sound clip from Phineas and Ferb, Wilson captioned her video: ‘Wow, if I had a nickel for every time I found out I had a half-sibling through Reddit, I’d have two nickels… which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice, right?’
The post quickly went viral with more than 400,000 views and drawing thousands of comments from users who related to her experience.
She followed up with a joke suggesting she is in something of a unique position: ‘I don’t know how many siblings I have’ goes really hard on 2 truths and a lie though I will admit.’
One commenter wrote, ‘I found out I had a brother through Facebook. It gets better girl. My dad died, I hope you get the same gift.’
Another shared, ‘I found out through Facebook that I had a half-sister WITH MY SAME NAME. Thanks, bio dad.’

Musk welcomed Vivian with his first wife, Justine Wilson, in 2004.
She was born as a male named Xavier, but filed court documents seeking to legally change her gender from male to female in April 2022.
At the time, she also requested to change her name to Vivian Jenna Wilson, taking the maiden name of her mother.
She stated: ‘I no longer live with or wish to be related to my biological father in any way, shape or form.’
Musk has 12 other children spanning multiple relationships.
His children include twins Vivian and Griffin and triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian from his marriage to Justine Wilson. The couple divorced in 2008.
His high-profile relationship with musician Grimes led to the birth of three more children: X Æ A-Xii (known as ‘X’), Exa Dark Sideræl, and Techno Mechanicus.
Musk also shares twins, Strider and Azure, with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis as well as a third child, a baby boy, revealed last summer.
If recent allegations are to be believed, a new child with conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair would extend Musk’s brood to 13.
In the past, Wilson has been openly critical of her father, portraying him as both absent and cruel.
In a July 2024 interview with NBC News, she described Musk’s treatment of her as a child as ‘cruel’ due to her queerness and femininity.

Musk has since publicly slammed Vivian calling her a ‘communist’ who thinks ‘anyone rich is evil.’
As a transgender woman, Wilson has faced repeated dismissals and misgendering from Musk, who has previously described her as ‘not a girl’ and figuratively ‘dead.’
Meanwhile, Musk has also claimed that he was ‘tricked’ into authorizing gender-affirming care ‘for Xavier when he was just 16’, he said, using her former name.
‘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.’
When asked about gender dysphoria, he added: ‘It’s incredibly evil and I agree with you that the people that are promoting this should go to prison.
‘I was tricked into doing this. It wasn’t explained to me that puberty blockers are actually just sterilization drugs.
‘I lost my son, essentially. They call it ‘deadnaming’ for a reason.
‘The reason they call it ‘deadnaming’ is because your son is dead, so my son, Xavier, is dead, killed by the woke mind virus.’
Deadnaming is what transgender people typically refer to others calling them by the name they went by before they began to transition.
Elon said that he ‘vowed to destroy the woke mind virus after that.’
He also posted a Tweet in which he claimed that Vivian was born ‘gay and slightly autistic.’

Addressing those allegations, Wilson refuted her father’s claims in her NBC interview, saying, ‘I think he was under the assumption that I wasn’t going to say anything and I would just let this go unchallenged. Which I’m not going to do, because if you’re going to lie about me, like, blatantly to an audience of millions, I’m not just gonna let that slide.’
She said that her father was not around when she was a child, and would relentlessly harass her for her ‘femininity and queerness.’
‘He doesn’t know what I was like as a child because he quite simply wasn’t there,’ she fired back.
‘And in the little time that he was I was relentlessly harassed for my femininity and queerness.
‘I’ve been reduced to a happy little stereotype. I think that says a lot about how he views queer people and children in general.’
Despite the turbulent relationship with her billionaire father, Wilson has cultivated a significant social media following.
Her content, often peppered with humor and pointed commentary has resonated with many who see her as a voice of defiance against Musk’s public and private actions.
Her TikTok bio even reads: ‘I promise I’m not dead.’
