Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, had sex with SpaceX intern revealed in a recent Wall Street Journal report.
The tech billionaire has been accused of engaging in inappropriate sexual relationships with employees, including an intern, and asking another employee to bear his children.
The report claims Musk cultivated a workplace environment at both companies that made female employees feel uncomfortable and unsafe.
Previous Accusations of Drug Use and Hostile Work Environment:
This latest revelation is part of a series of allegations against Elon Musk.
He has previously been accused of using drugs like LSD, cocaine, ecstasy, mushrooms, and ketamine, sometimes in the presence of board members.
Moreover, former employees have described a “hostile work environment” at SpaceX and Tesla, where jokes about sexual harassment were common, women were paid less than men, and complaints led to dismissal.
Detailed Accusations from Female Employees:
Women employees at Tesla have claimed they received unusual attention or were pursued by Musk.
In a specific instance from 2016, a SpaceX flight attendant alleged that Musk exposed himself to her and offered to buy her a horse in exchange for sex.

Another woman, who left SpaceX in 2013, reported that Musk repeatedly asked her to have his babies.
Musk, who has publicly expressed concerns about underpopulation and advocated for intelligent people to procreate, is known to have at least ten children.
Text Messages Highlight Inappropriate Behavior:
The Wall Street Journal’s report also included text exchanges between Musk and a female SpaceX employee.
The messages revealed multiple invitations from Musk for her to visit his house at night.
In one exchange, Musk wrote: “Come by! Look, it’s either me or 6am [exercise] :)” and later, “Are you coming over? If not, I will probably tranq out. Too stressed to sleep naturally.”
“There many nights I sleep alone, I don’t have to, but I do”

Denial and Defense from SpaceX Leadership:
As Elon Musk has been accused of sex with SpaceX intern, Musk’s legal team have strongly denied the allegations.
Gwynne Shotwell, SpaceX’s President and COO, defended Musk and the company in a statement: “The untruths, mischaracterizations, and revisionist history in your email paint a completely misleading narrative. I continue to be amazed by what this extraordinary group of people are achieving every day even amidst all the forces acting against us. And Elon is one of the best humans I know.”
