Few lives seem to be as public as that of Elon Muskthe alleged richest man on the planet who now does not want to open his wallet to keep his word and finish buying Twitter.
All this after a fairly coincidental series of events in which his cryptocurrency assets collapsed, he implemented massive layoffs at Tesla Motors and quietly sold multiple shares of his companies as he prepares for the trial against the social network.
There is something strange and almost illogical in the behavior of the tycoon who has gone through turbulent times over the past few years.
So, as would be expected, it was only a matter of time before all these messes were also fed by gossip emanating from his personal life.
What perhaps no one expected is that the protagonist of this whole series of gossip was Elon’s own father, Errol Musk.
Elon Musk would have sent a severe text message to his father
Throughout the week, various statements by Elon’s father came to light, where he spoke of different details of his son’s life. Criticizing his overweight and relatively reviling the trajectory of Tesla cars, stating that he prefers other cars.
Obviously this would bring consequences and now we are witnessing them. Since Musk would have sent an unusual text message to his father asking him to “shut up” after the criticism he made public.
And all this has been leaked because Errol himself in an interview with the daily mail australiarevealed that he had misunderstood the question in the recent Australian radio interview by answering “no” when asked if he was proud of Elon:
“I didn’t really notice the question about being proud. It was only when I listened to the recording afterwards that I realized how it all came together.
If you ask any parent if they are proud of their child, you are proud of them from the day they were born.
Elon knows that’s not true, so he would never be upset about it. He just laughs at these kinds of things.”
Even so, everything would have had its repercussions, since, according to the subject, his three daughters Alexandra, Asha and Tosca, did not speak with him for days after having spoken in that interview.
Elon, for his part, would have sent him the aforementioned text message with the following request: “Dad, the press treats you like you’re a violin, so please shut up.”
This would have been in a joking and cordial tone, so everything indicates that they would be on good terms.
