Saxon Musk Has an Opinion on Many Things - Facts about Elon Musk's Son
Saxon Musk is one of Elon Musk's ten children. He was conceived in the billionaire's first marriage via unconventional means. Per his father's tweets over the last year, the now-teenage youngster is quite opinionated.
As the son of a celebrity billionaire, Saxon Musk has made several public appearances and has already secured one TV credit. Although the teenager didn't have any social handles of his own at the time of publication, he has voiced many of his opinions through his dad.
Saxon grew up affluently alongside his siblings. He attended a school founded by his father after he pulled them out of another in Los Angeles. His parents would also allow him to have sleepovers as a babysitter once revealed in 2021, marveling at how "health-conscious" and "well-behaved" he was.

Saxon Musk Is One of the Triplets
Saxon took his first breath on January 1, 2006, alongside his triplet brothers, Kai and Damien. Born to Elon and author Justine Musk, Saxon and his brothers were conceived via IVF after their older twin siblings, Griffin, and Vivian Musk.
However, before Griffin and Vivian, Saxon had an even older sibling, Nevada Alexander Musk, who tragically died at the infant age of 10 weeks. Nevada was born in 2002, two years after Elon and Justine married, but he passed on due to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).
Saxon was two years old when his dad filed for divorce from his mom in 2008. Only six weeks later, Elon messaged Justine to inform her that he had moved on to actress Talulah Riley, who was in her early 20s at the time.

Saxon Has Made Several Public Appearances over the past Few Years
Saxon has led a relatively private life, as there is no information about what he is currently doing. Still, he has made public appearances, with the latest being last year on the tabloid news show "BILD LIVE."
His dad has also published his statements and opinions on social media, referring to the 16-year-old as SJM. The initials first confused fans, who were clueless about whom the Twitter CEO spoke. SJM stood for Saxon's full name Saxon James Musk.
In September 2022, Elon shared Saxon's amazement that newspapers were still in print. The youngster thought that publications should "just search the internet" and "print it out." Elon shared the sentiment again last December.
Earlier last year, in July, Saxon cited a line by Sonic The Hedgehog from the 2012 animated film "Wreck-It Ralph." Part of the film's plot was that if video game characters joined another game and died, they couldn't regenerate in their own game.
The reference was a prelude to his frustrations about the late YouTuber, Technoblade, who passed on after battling cancer. Saxon concluded his short think piece by encouraging others to live their best lives with those around them because they may die at any given time.
That same month, he accompanied his dad to Italy to meet Pope Francis. In June 2022, Elon revealed that Saxon was a cat lover and wanted 20,000 of the furry companions. Saxon has also spent time with his dad and his former partner Grimes.
He and his four siblings were all spotted during a trip to a pumpkin patch with the ex-lovers in 2018. The year before, Saxon and his brothers also enjoyed a day out in 2017 at the Sydney Opera House with their dad's alleged former lover, Amber Heard.
Saxon Musk Has Had a Good Upbringing
As a TikTok creator revealed in 2021, Saxon was raised to be health-conscious regarding his food intake. She shared the babysitting story as part of her "one-in-a-million" encounter in multiple parts, saying Saxon and his brothers were "polite" and "well-mannered."
However, out of the three, she described Kai as the "most normal." Saxon also attended his dad's school, Ad Astra, an online non-profit institution available to children aged 10-14 worldwide.
