After conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair announced last week that she gave birth to Elon's 13th child, Vivian shared a TikTok writing that this was not the first, but the second time she found out about a potential sibling via Reddit.

"Wow, if I had a nickel for every time I found out I had half-siblings through Reddit, I'd have two nickels... which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice, right?" she wrote over a short clip.

In another post on Threads, Vivian shared that she has actually found out about six of her half-siblings through the internet. "'I don't know how many siblings I have' goes really hard on 2 truths and a lie though I will admit," she said.

Musk had six children with his first wife, Justine Wilson, three with Grimes, three with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis, and now allegedly one with Ashley St. Clair.
When asked which platform was the worst to find out on, she replied, "r/rupaulsdragrace I am being so deadass right now."

In a follow-up TikTok, she shared the story. "Storytime, I found out about the existence of my half-brother through reddit.com/r/rupaulsdragrace," she began. "This is a real thing that actually happened to me, and if it sounds insane, it is."

She proceeded to share how exactly she found out about Elon Musk and Grimes' latest child — and her new sibling. "I'm going to paint you a scene. The year is 2022, and at the time, me and Grimes, or as I know her, C, are not talking. We're not on bad terms; we're just not talking, as people do."

Vivian went on to explain that she was on the RuPaul Drag Race subreddit when she came across the news. "The specific day of, I didn't really have anything to do, so I was just scrolling on Reddit, and I'm a huge fan of Drag Race, so naturally, I was on the Drag Race subreddit. And what do I come across but none other than a tweet from season 2 and All Stars 2 contestant Tatianna," she said.

She continued, "I found this tweet that was crossposted onto the subreddit, and I had no idea of this at the time because no one thought to let me know. So at the moment, I'm just in complete shock, and I don't believe it, so I double-check it on the news, and it turns out it's actually fucking true, and I'm just the last one to find out about it."

She said, "This is a real thing that happened to me, girl. I found out about my half-brother because of the fucking same-parts drag queen, whomst we stan."
Vivian clarified, "This isn't to drag on C or anything. It kind of makes sense how this happened because, again, we were not really talking at the time, but I just think it's funny because... choices."

In the comments, she wrote, "Y’all, please don’t go send hate to Grimes- she’s been through enough💀."
Vivian, a trans woman who legally changed her name to drop "Musk" in 2022, is one of Musk's children with his first wife, Justine Wilson. Vivian has previously alluded to Musk being an absentee dad.

After Elon Musk went on a rant on X in July 2024 claiming, while deadnaming her, that he knew Vivian was "born gay and slightly autistic" because she liked musicals, amongst other bizarre claims, Vivian wrote, "This entire thing is completely made up and there's a reason for this. He doesn't know what I was like as a child because he quite simply wasn't there, and in the little time that he was I was relentlessly harassed for my femininity and queerness."

She continued, "Obviously he can’t say that, so I’ve been reduced to a happy little stereotype f*g-ing along to use at his discretion. I think that says alot about how he views queer people and children in general."
Vivian proceeded to defend her gender identity and then gave some...choice words about Musk, criticizing him for seeking validation "from an army of degenerate red-pilled incels and pick-mes who are quick to give it to him."

Anyway, Tatianna has responded since unintentionally breaking the news to Vivian about her half-sibling. "OMG IM SO SORRY LMAOOO," she wrote, which Vivian laughed at in response.

Others in the comments encouraged Vivian to keep speaking up. "Please don't ever sign an NDA. Your stories are so good," one person wrote.

"Pleaaase write a book (if you want to) we would support you queen," another user requested.

One person pointed out that Vivian is having a "disproportionate number of character-building experiences."

"girl your lore is unmatched at this point," another user wrote.

And some, of course, made jokes about Elon Musk. "Your dad needs to be spayed," one person wrote.

"Girl you're the best thing to come out that family," someone else said.
