Vivian Jenna Wilson Discovers Half-Siblings Through Reddit Again

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 16, 2025 — Vivian Jenna Wilson, the estranged daughter of billionaire Elon Musk, revealed that she learned about a new potential half-sibling through Reddit, an unusual twist in her already complicated family dynamics. The 21-year-old shared her experience on TikTok, emphasizing that this was not an isolated incident, as she has discovered a total of six half-siblings online.

In her viral TikTok video, which rapidly amassed over 400,000 views, Wilson used a sound clip from the animated series ‘Phineas and Ferb.’ She humorously noted, ‘Wow, if I had a nickel for every time I found out I had a half-sibling through Reddit, I’d have two nickels… which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice, right?’

The post struck a chord with viewers, sparking a flood of comments. One user shared their own experience, saying, ‘I found out I had a brother through Reddit. It gets better girl. My dad died; I hope you get the same gift.’ Another chimed in, ‘I found out through Facebook that I had a half-sister WITH MY SAME NAME. Thanks, bio dad.’

Wilson subsequently took to Threads to reinforce her discovery and the unexpected nature of finding siblings online, a situation that has drawn both amusement and empathy from social media users. She has been openly critical of her father, describing him as distant and unsupportive. In an interview with NBC News in July 2024, Wilson recounted her painful experiences with Musk, stating, ‘His treatment of me as a child was cruel, particularly due to my queerness and femininity.’

Born as Xavier Musk, Wilson legally changed her name and gender in April 2022, distancing herself from her father. ‘I no longer live with or wish to be related to my biological father in any way, shape, or form,’ she stated in her legal documents.

Musk has acknowledged his children, which include twins Vivian and Griffin, as well as triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian, from his former marriage to Justine Wilson. The couple divorced in 2008. Most recently, he has been linked to several relationships, including one with musician Grimes and a conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair, who made headlines with allegations that she gave birth to Musk’s 13th child.

The estrangement between Wilson and Musk has been publicly contentious, particularly regarding Musk’s views on gender identity and his daughter. Musk has previously referred to Vivian using her former name, engaging in deadnaming that has invoked backlash from LGBTQ+ communities.

Despite the challenges she faces in her relationship with her father, Wilson has built a robust online presence, attracting followers with her humorous and poignant insights on social media. Her TikTok bio concludes with the assertion, ‘I promise I’m not dead,’ a statement reflective of her defiance against the long-standing family drama.
