Elon Musk’s estranged daughter responds to her father after he tweets ‘gross’ statement about her

Vivian Jenna Wilson, daughter of tech mogul Elon Musk and Justine Wilson, has addressed a recent tweet made by her father. In 2022, Wilson filed a legal petition to change her name, expressing her desire to sever any connection with her biological father.

Despite Wilson’s decision to distance herself from Musk, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO has continued to make public comments regarding his daughter, including a recent online statement where he alleged that Wilson, who is transgender, was negatively influenced by what he termed a “woke mind virus.”

In a recent interview with Teen Vogue, Wilson shared her perspective on seeing news about her father. She described some of the coverage as uncomfortable and noted that she has occasionally felt compelled to publicly denounce certain statements or actions attributed to him.

One instance that attracted widespread attention involved a controversial gesture made by Musk at a political rally, which some interpreted as inappropriate. Wilson described the incident as “insane” and expressed her disapproval.

Social media users also weighed in, debating the context and intent of Musk’s actions. One Twitter user questioned whether Wilson’s remarks were factual, emphasizing that public statements do not always equate to truth. In response, Musk addressed the situation using Wilson’s former name and reiterated his previous statement about her being impacted by societal influences.

Wilson’s reaction to Musk’s comments was succinct and straightforward. Posting on Threads, she wrote, “Ew. Gross. I’ll deal with this nonsense in a bit, for now a simple ratio will suffice.”

Many social media users offered support to Wilson, expressing empathy for her situation. One user remarked that Musk’s comment was hurtful and criticized the public nature of the remarks. Another encouraged Wilson to stay strong, emphasizing that she deserves support and kindness.

Ultimately, Wilson expressed that she no longer allows fear or negative associations to influence her mindset. She highlighted her intention to focus on positive aspects of life and not be weighed down by her past connections.
