The daughter of Musk and ex-wife Justine Wilson, Vivian, 20, recently spoke to YouTube influencer Hasan Piker about her father
Elon Musk’s estranged daughter Vivian Wilson is speaking out about one of the last times she communicated with her father.
“One of the last interactions we ever had was arguing about wearing a mask,” Wilson, 20, told YouTube influencer Hasan Piker in a recent interview about her father, whom she has previously said she hasn’t spoken to since 2020, during the COVID pandemic.
“He sent me this GIF of a sheep and said, ‘Stop being sheeple.’ It was cringe.”
In the 90-minute interview, the daughter of Musk and his ex-wife, Justine Wilson, also shared that the Tesla CEO’s right-leaning politics are nothing new, despite his years of advocacy for the environment through his electric car company. She also alleged that his brand is a “Ponzi scheme.”

“People think it’s my fault,” Wilson told Piker about her father’s opinions. “I cannot take credit for that, unfortunately.”
She added, “[Elon Musk] was not a liberal darling. I f—ing know him, he was never on the left. It was a marketing scheme.”
In addition, Vivian — who came out as transgender in 2020 — also alluded to the fact that her father’s politics had no influence on her own evolution.

“People think that we live in a novel and that [my transition] is some tragic character motivation,” she said. “This is not a novel. I am not the reason.”
Wilson’s latest interview comes days after she spoke to Teen Vogue where she shared that her mother was more supportive than the Tesla CEO, 53, when she confirmed her gender identity to them in 2020.
“She was very supportive of my transition,” Vivian told the outlet of mom Justine, 52. “She is a published writer of supernatural romance fiction, which is where I get all my Vivian-isms.”
“When I came out to her, she was like, ‘Yeah, that figures.’ She kind of [pieced it together], so when I came out, she pretended to be slightly surprised for 30 seconds and then was like, ‘Yeah, honey. Okay,’ ” she continued.
As for Musk, Vivian told the outlet that “he was not as supportive as my mom,” adding: “First of all, I had not talked to him in months — in months — so I had to get f—ing parental consent to get testosterone blockers and [hormone replacement therapy].”
Elsewhere in that interview, Vivian — who is one of Musk’s 14 children with four different women — addressed her many siblings, and admitted that she doesn’t really know how many she has — especially since more and more of them keep becoming public.
“Well, I have four of them,” Wilson says when asked about her siblings, referencing Musk’s four kids with ex-wife Justine, twin brother Griffin and triplet brothers Kai, Saxon and Damian. “I’m tied for oldest. But when we fought, it wasn’t really with words. There was a lot of … I have four siblings. We’re going to leave it at that, honey.”
When asked if she’s on good terms with her siblings, Wilson candidly says, “That’s a question.”
