Elon Musk's dad has said his son was 'too busy' to speak to him after the birth of his second child with his former stepdaughter.

Earlier this week, 76-year-old Errol Musk claimed to have fathered another baby with 35-year-old Jana Bezuidenhout.

Musk Sr raised Bezuidenhout since the age of four after marrying her mother Heidi, who he shares two children with from their 18-year marriage. 

The South African electromechanical engineer and pilot went on to have a baby – Elliot Rush, nicknamed Rushi – with Bezuidenhout back in 2018, and has now said he's welcomed a second child with his stepdaughter.

One person who wasn't particularly excited about the news, however, was the 51-year-old Tesla founder.

Speaking to The Sun, Musk Sr said that when he told his billionaire son about the first arrival, Musk replied: "Okay, I got it, but l’m real busy right now. I'll speak to you in due course."

Well, that's one way to avoid the awkward chat.

As for his other kids, the 76-year-old said: "I notified all my children. I said take it or leave it. And my youngest son, Kimbal, his initial reaction was, 'It happens'. 

"My three daughters all said 'Jeez', because Jana’s their half sister. Tosca, Rose and Allie, Alexandra. They were like, 'How could Jana do this?'

"And they still don’t like it. They still feel a bit creepy about it, because she's their sister. Their half-sister. They were more concerned [than the boys]."

In an earlier interview, Musk Sr said the birth of their purported second child was 'unplanned', telling The Sun: "I haven't checked her DNA. But she looks just like my other daughters. She looks like Rose and Tosca mixed up. 

"She looks exactly like Rushi and she behaves like him. So it's pretty obvious you know.

"She wasn't planned. But I mean, we were living together. She [Jana] stayed here for about 18 months after Rushi was born. 

"But I realised she's two generations behind whereas her mother was one generation behind when I married her. 

"So any man who marries a woman, even if you feel very sprightly, it's going to be nice for a while. But there’s a big gap… And that gap is going to show itself."

Musk added that he has other women alleging to have had his child, saying there are currently six ‘opportunists’ making the claim but that it was ‘quite conceivable’ that one could be his as there was a period in the 80s where he was ‘going out with different women every night’ in Johannesburg.

That said, Musk revealed he would happily have another child if he could, as he couldn’t ‘see any reason not to’. 

"The only thing we are on Earth for is to reproduce,” he said, pointing out that if he had ‘thought about it’, then sons Elon and Kimbal ‘wouldn’t exist’.
