Errol Musk Says China Wants to Recruit His Son for a Gaming Tournament
The claim was made by none other than Errol Musk, Elon Musk's father.
China has reportedly set its sights on an unlikely candidate for recruitment—a 7-year-old boy. And not just any child, but Elon Musk’s half-brother, Elliot Rush, also known as "Rush." The claim was made by none other than Errol Musk, the billionaire’s father.
Errol claimed that China is eager to bring young Rush onboard for a major gaming tournament, suggesting that his son is already making waves in the eSports world. To support his claim, he revealed that he had even hosted a Chinese businessman at his ranch in South Africa in connection with this supposed recruitment.
“They say he will be the biggest thing in China. They say he’s a prolific gamer and he’s a champion," Errol told the Daily Mail.
Despite the ongoing geopolitical tensions between China and the United States, Errol didn’t seem particularly concerned about his young son being at the center of this alleged effort.
Who Is Elliot Rush?
Elliot Rush is one of Errol Musk’s children, born from his relationship with Jana Bezuidenhout—a woman whose connection to Errol has raised eyebrows for years. Jana, now 38, was once Errol’s stepdaughter, having been part of his life since she was just four years old. She is the daughter of Heide Bezuidenhout, Errol’s second wife. However, when Jana turned 30, their relationship took a turn, leading to the birth of Rush.
While Rush’s gaming skills remain unverified, his father is adamant that the child is already a rising star in the eSports community.
Errol Musk Reacts to Ashley St Clair’s Claim About Elon’s Alleged Child
In addition to discussing his young son's gaming prowess, Errol Musk also addressed another headline-making claim—right-wing influencer Ashley St Clair’s assertion that she has given birth to Elon Musk’s child.
When asked about it, Errol remained vague.
“I would find it very strange if a woman is saying she has had a child with Elon and telling people quite publicly about it. If it turns out not to be true, she would be a little crazy, don’t you think?” he said.
He further added, “Any woman with a slight brain would be mad to turn down the opportunity if she were to be offered a child with Elon.”
The Musk Family’s Unconventional Dynamics
Elon Musk, the billionaire CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, is one of Errol’s three children from his first marriage to Maye Musk. Despite Elon’s strained relationship with his father, Errol Musk frequently makes headlines, whether for his controversial personal life or his latest unexpected claims.
From claims of China's interest in a 7-year-old gamer to commenting on his son’s rumored offspring, Errol Musk continues to surprise—and spark curiosity—whenever he speaks.
