Elon Musk’s 20-year-old trans daughter, Vivian Wilson, has once again garnered media attention for her harsh criticism of her multibillionaire father.
Wilson voiced her displeasure with Musk’s family philosophy in a recent Threads post, specifically accusing him of utilizing sex-selective IVF to choose the gender of his child.
Wilson’s recent comments have further strained their already tense relationship by illuminating her difficult personal life and her choice to sever her contact with her well-known father.
In June 2022, Wilson—real name Xavier Musk—came out as transgender. She asked to officially alter her first name to Vivian at that time, and she took her mother’s last name, Justine Wilson.
A major turning point in her life, her choice to transition also signaled a break from the treatment she had received from her father all of her childhood.
