Elon Musk welcomes 14th child as Shivon Zilis announces birth of son: ‘Juggernaut with heart of gold’

BOCA CHICA, TEXAS: Elon Musk, known for both his business empire and ever-growing family, appears to have welcomed his 14th child, according to a surprise announcement from Shivon Zilis.
The Neuralink executive, who already shares three children with Musk, publicly celebrated the first birthday of their previously undisclosed child, Arcadia, on social media while also revealing the existence of a fourth, reported Irish Star.
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 ♥️

Arcadia, a mountainous area in the Peloponnese of ancient Greece, is known in mythology as the dwelling place of the gods Hermes and Pan.
In her post, she wrote, "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."
Musk responded to the post with a simple heart emoji, offering no further comment on the new addition. The exact birth date of Seldon Lycurgus remains unclear.
Elon Musk became a father for the first time in 2002 when he and his then-wife, author Justine Wilson, welcomed their son, Nevada Alexander Musk. Tragically, Nevada passed away at just 10 weeks old due to sudden infant death syndrome. In 2004, the couple used IVF to conceive twins, Griffin and Vivian.

Two years after their twins were born, Musk and Wilson expanded their family again with triplet sons Kai, Saxon, and Damian also conceived through IVF.
Musk later had three more children with musician Grimes: son X Æ A-Xii, daughter Exa Dark Sideræl, and son Techno Mechanicus.
More recently, MAGA influencer Ashley St Clair claimed Musk fathered her child, revealing on Valentine’s Day that she had given birth five months earlier. The revelation triggered legal action, with St Clair suing Musk for sole custody. She alleged that the billionaire had only met their child three times and had been largely absent from the infant’s life.
