Vivian Jenna Wilson

Vivian Jenna Wilson (born April 15, 2004) is an American student whose estranged father is the businessman Elon Musk. She is a transgender woman, and in July 2024, she began openly criticizing Elon Musk in response to his public comments on her gender transition. She currently studies languages in college.
Early life
Wilson was conceived by Justine Musk via and born in 2004 as a twin. She has a twin brother, Griffin, followed by younger brothers Kai, Saxon, and Damian. She describes Musk as largely absent as she grew up and, when he was around, he could be "cruel" and allegedly harassed her for displaying "femininity and queerness". According to Wilson, Musk often instructed her to "appear more masculine". She attended school in Santa Monica.
Wilson began her treatment for gender dysphoria at the age of 16, which, according to her, Musk did not initially support. In the petition for the changes, Wilson stated she no longer wished to be related to Elon Musk "in any way, shape or form".
Public responses to Musk
In a July 2024 interview conducted by Jordan Peterson, Musk spoke negatively of Wilson's transition, shared anecdotes that he suggested characterized her early supposed homosexuality, and deadnamed her. He said he was "tricked" into granting her request for gender-affirming treatment, as California law required his permission since Wilson was under 18 at the time. Musk ultimately described her as having been figuratively "killed by the woke mind virus" in conjunction with her transition. She later addressed them in an interview with NBC.
Musk's former partner Grimes expressed her support for Wilson following Musk's and Wilson's comments.
