As the public feud between Elon Musk and Donald Trump takes over headlines, a surprising reaction has come from someone very close to the Tesla CEO – his estranged daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson. Vivian, 21, who has been openly critical of her father in the past, seemed to enjoy the unfolding drama. Taking to her Instagram Stories, she shared a video of herself laughing, with the caption: “I love being proven right.” Without directly naming either Musk or Trump, she added, “I do not want to comment,” before bursting into laughter.
On Threads, she posted another cryptic remark: “Such beauty in life”, accompanied by the song Job Application by Chase Icon. In a follow-up, she simply wrote: “The weather is so lovely today.”
Vivian legally changed her gender on June 22, 2022, at a California court. She has been estranged from her billionaire father for a long time. In earlier court filings, she reportedly said, “I no longer live with or wish to be related to my biological father in any way, shape, or form.”
Musk, meanwhile, has spoken publicly about the rift. In one interview, he blamed it on what he called a “woke mind virus.”
“I was tricked into doing this. I lost my son, essentially. They call it ‘deadnaming’ for a reason. The reason they call it ‘deadnaming’ is because your son is dead,” he had said during an interview with Dr Jordan Peterson.
The rift between Elon Musk and Donald Trump hit a new low after Musk slammed what he called the President’s “Big, Beautiful Bill.”
“I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore. This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it,” Musk posted on X (formerly Twitter).
Trump didn’t seem too bothered at first. He told reporters he had expected Musk to come after him eventually. But things didn’t stop there. Musk took it a step further by dragging in the still-murky Jeffrey Epstein files.
“Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!” he posted. He later added: “Mark this post for the future. The truth will come out.”
Musk also suggested that Trump wouldn’t have won the 2024 election without his help and backed calls for his impeachment.
Despite the fiery back-and-forth, Trump didn’t show much concern. According to ABC News, when asked early Friday morning about a reported call scheduled with Musk, he replied, “You mean the man who has lost his mind?” He added that he was “not particularly” interested in speaking to Musk at the moment. Trump claimed it was Musk who wanted to talk to him, not the other way around.
Sources close to Trump told ABC News that he wasn’t angry, just disappointed. One adviser described him as “bummed” about how things turned out.
Trump is now reportedly thinking of giving away or selling the red Tesla he had bought to support Musk. Back in March, Trump had even checked out Tesla models at the White House as Musk’s company faced challenges.
