Shivon Zilis, Neuralink Director and Elon Musk’s partner, announced the arrival of her fourth child as she wrote a post on Musk-owned X. With this, Elon Musk became the father of 14 children. Before their newborn son, Seldon Lycurgus, the couple had their youngest daughter, Arcadia, and twins Strider and Azure.
The celebration around the arrival of Shivon and Elon’s fourth child, a son named Seldon Lycurgus, drew attention to Zilis' Punjabi connection.
Four of Elon Musk’s children now have an Indian connection through their mother, Shivon Zilis. She was born to a Punjabi Indian mother and a Caucasian Canadian father in Ontario, Canada.
