Elon Musk has confirmed the arrival of his 12th child with an executive from his company Neuralink.

Between sending rockets into space, getting electric cars on the road and implanting humans with brain chips, you might think that Musk wouldn't have much time for a personal life.

But if the fact he's always getting involved in one discussion or another on X wasn't enough to tell you that's not the case, then maybe the arrival of his 12th child will do the trick.

Musk confirmed to Page Six this week that he'd become a dad for the 12th time earlier this year, though he insisted the arrival of the newborn was no secret.

Instead, the family simply decided not to shout it from the rooftops.

Musk responded to reports that he was keeping his latest stint of fatherhood under wraps, saying: “As for ‘secretly fathered,’ that is also false. All our friends and family know.

"Failure to issue a press release, which would be bizarre, does not mean ‘secret.'”

Musk shares his youngest child with Neuralink exec Shivon Zilis, with who he also shares twins Strider and Azure, who arrived in November 2021.

The birth of the new baby, whose name and sex have not yet been revealed, comes after he welcomed three children with singer Grimes, with their third child arriving just one month after Strider and Azure.

Musk has previously been open about his concern of a population decline, and he spoke further on the subject while discussing his new arrival with Page Six.

He said: “Many countries are already well below replacement rate, and the trend is that almost all will be.

"This is simply a fact, not a ‘debunked theory.'

“2.1 kids is replacement rate, and obviously the world as a whole will soon drop below that point.”

In July last year, Musk told the publication that when it comes to children, he wants to have 'as many as [he is] able to spend time with and be a good father'.

Musk's first child was born in 2002 with his first wife Justine Wilson, however the baby sadly died at 10 weeks old of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).

Since then, Musk and Wilson went on to welcome twins Vivian Jenna and Griffin through IVF in 2004, and triplets Kai, Saxon and Damian followed in 2006.

With Grimes, the Tesla founder shares X Æ A-Xii, Exa Dark Sideræl and Techno Mechanicus, who also goes by 'Tau'.
