In a jaw-dropping interview on the Podcast and Chill show, Errol Musk, father of billionaire Elon Musk, has revealed a controversial and deeply troubling chapter of his personal life. The 76-year-old retired engineer disclosed that, years after his divorce from Heide Bezuidenhout, he began a romantic relationship with her daughter—his stepdaughter—Jana Bezuidenhout. This relationship, which began in 2016, resulted in two children, a revelation that has stunned South Africans and sparked widespread outrage.
Musk explained that the relationship started when Jana, facing significant financial hardship, reached out to him for help. He offered her financial support and provided her and her boyfriend with a second-hand car. However, things quickly escalated when Jana moved in with him, leading to an intimate relationship that, according to Musk, ultimately produced two children. The children were confirmed through DNA testing, and Musk also provided Jana with a small house to live in.
The bombshell revelation has set social media ablaze, with South Africans expressing their disgust and disbelief. On Facebook, many users voiced their shock and condemnation. Paul Adom Nkra reacted sharply, writing, “The gods are preparing to teach him a lesson.” Jessica Fourie described the news as “absolutely sickening,” while Sibusisow Sakhi criticized the behaviour as symptomatic of the moral problems often associated with wealth. Another user, Sekgota J Pheeha, simply called Errol Musk “a vile individual.”
The shocking disclosure has raised serious ethical and moral questions, both about Musk’s actions and the broader implications for his family. The Musk name has long been associated with technological innovation and wealth, but this revelation places Errol Musk under a very different kind of spotlight—one that has nothing to do with his son’s achievements and everything to do with the controversial choices of his own life.
