Elon Musk’s Mother Claims He Was a Genius at Age Three in Unusual Interview
Elon Musk's mother claims he was a genius at three and defends him against racism accusations in exclusive interview.
POLICY WIRE — New York, United States — Elon Musk’s mother, Maye Musk, has revealed that the tech mogul was considered a genius by the age of three during an exclusive interview with The Telegraph.
The 78-year-old model and dietitian, who is also the mother of Elon Musk, shared insights into her son’s early life, describing how he would engage in complex reasoning at just three years old. She recounted how he would suggest cost-saving alternatives while she was shopping, which she found surprising for a child of that age.
Maye Musk, who has Canadian, South African, and U.S. citizenship, married Elon’s father, Errol Musk, in 1970. She has worked with top fashion brands and appeared in Beyoncé’s 2013 music video. She later divorced Errol in 1979, after which Elon moved in with his father. She described how her ex-husband provided access to resources like encyclopedias, a library, and a computer, which she could not afford at the time.

Despite facing criticism for his alignment with far-right groups, including the German AfD and British figure Tommy Robinson, Maye Musk remains supportive of her son. She called the negative media coverage “dishonest” and expressed concern over the death threats he receives. She also noted that family gatherings now take place in remote locations due to Elon’s high-profile status, and the family does not have a group chat.
Maye Musk shared that Elon is constantly busy, even during weekends, and that she often attends his meetings. She mentioned that their most recent gathering took place in secret for his 55th birthday in June, where they could relax without public attention.
