Elon Musk's Daughter Vivian Wilson Says Her Childhood Was 'Very Isolating'

Vivian Jenna Wilson is opening up about her “isolating” childhood.

The 21-year-old estranged daughter of Elon Musk, who came out as transgender in 2020, chatted about being born into “extreme wealth” and why she decided to reject it.

“It was a very strange experience, very isolating.…The upper class have their own private schools, social circles, and whatever,” she told Cosmopolitan.

“I have unlearned a huge amount, but even as a child, I was like, ‘This is a bit gauche,’” she added. “I remember being very young and seeing homelessness and feeling sick to my stomach. People would get on me for being like a dramatic little child. But no, I was right to be a dramatic little shit about that.”

Vivian said that in those circles, she noticed a “level of detachment from reality itself, in favor of wealth and this illusion that you deserve it while people are sleeping on the streets… Oh, and also Santa Claus is real.”

“I also know that, like, I was a rich kid; I should not be lecturing anyone on materialism,” she said.

Vivian seemingly called out her father in the next comments. He is currently the richest man in the world with an estimated net worth of $798 billion, according to Forbes.

“Absolutely yes,” she said when asked if immense wealth warps people.

She added, “I have seen that sh-t firsthand. It will change you, and the desire for power corrupts people from within. It is cartoonish. Achieving that and wanting more is a never-ending cycle of greed and gluttony, where nothing is enough and you kind of go insane. It turns you into someone different. Which is honestly one of my biggest fears.”
