Meet Elon Musk’s 14th child, Seldon Lycurgus, with Punjabi heritage and a ‘heart of gold’

                                                                  

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has become a father once again. His longtime associate and Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis announced the birth of their fourth child together, a son named Seldon Lycurgus. This marks Musk’s 14th child overall.

On 1 March, Zilis shared the news on X, writing, “Discussed with Elon and, in light of beautiful Arcadia’s birthday, we felt it was better to also just share directly about our wonderful and incredible son Seldon Lycurgus. Built like a juggernaut, with a solid heart of gold. Love him so much.”

Punjabi Roots Spark Interest

The birth announcement also reignited conversations about Zilis’s heritage. Born in Ontario, Canada, she has a Punjabi Indian mother and a Caucasian Canadian father. In a 2015 interview with People magazine, she remarked, “I pretty much turned out white — I just got the big eyes from the Punjabi side.”

Many social media users, particularly from India, were surprised to learn that four of Musk’s children have Indian roots through their mother.
