Elon Musk is known for many things—revolutionizing electric cars, taking humans to Mars, launching AI projects, and even shaking up social media with his acquisition of X (formerly Twitter). But beyond his genius and ambition, there’s a softer, more personal side to the tech billionaire—his love for his children.
Among them, one child stands out the most: X Æ A-Xii, affectionately known as Lil X. Despite having 11 children (and possibly more in the future), it’s undeniable that Lil X holds a special place in Musk’s heart.
But why is Lil X so special to Musk? What makes him the favorite among his many kids? Let’s dive into Elon Musk’s unique bond with his adorable firstborn son from Grimes and why Lil X might just be the center of Musk’s universe.
Lil X: The Son That Changed Everything for Elon Musk
Elon Musk has always been a deeply private person when it comes to his personal life, but when Lil X was born in May 2020, something changed. Suddenly, the world saw a different side of Musk—not just as a billionaire entrepreneur but as a devoted and playful father.
Unlike his older children, who were raised mostly out of the public eye, Lil X has been a frequent presence in Musk’s life, even at work!
Did you know? Lil X has been spotted at Tesla factories, SpaceX launches, and even sitting on Musk’s lap during high-profile interviews.
Musk brings Lil X everywhere—whether it’s important business meetings or rocket launches, Lil X is right by his father’s side.
He is Musk’s little “co-pilot”—Musk has even joked that Lil X helps him make decisions at Tesla!
The billionaire adores every moment with him—often seen carrying, playing, and talking to his little boy in the cutest way possible.
It’s clear that Lil X isn’t just another one of Musk’s kids—he’s a constant companion in his father’s extraordinary life.
