Elon Musk allegedly had twins last year with an executive at one of his companies, Neuralink.
Business Insider reports it.
36-year-old Shivon Zilis, the alleged mother
of Musk's eighth and ninth child
, has been working with the richest man in the world since 2016, when she joined the non-profit organization OpenAl.
She was then hired by Tesla, before joining Neuralink, a company that develops chips to be implanted in the brain.
If confirmed , it would be
Musk
's second pair of twins .
He and his first wife, writer Justine Wilson, had twins in 2004 and three twins two years later.
They also had another child who died shortly after giving birth.
Tesla's boss then had two more children with musician Claire Boucher, the last in 2021 as a surrogate mother.
The twins would be born in November just before this baby.
Musk has a complicated relationship with his large family.
One of his sons recently announced that he had begun the process of changing his name and gender.
Xavier, who is 18, will be called Vivian Jenna Wilson, taking her mother's surname.
Official documents filed with a Los Angeles court read that the young man started the case because of a "gender identity and the fact that I do not wish to be related to my biological father in any way or form".
