“It`s not practical. She`s 35, eventually, if I`m still around, she might wind up back with me.” Errol added to his statement.
Jana`s first pregnancy with Errol`s child in 2017 shocked the Musks and led to a harsh falling out between Elon and his father. “They still don`t like it ..they still feel a bit creepy about it, because she`s their sister. Their half-sister.” Errol said when asked about how his family reacted to the shocking pregnancy news.
