Errol Musk is the father of the world’s richest man, Elon Musk. Although the father-son duo have publicly spoken about the battles in their relationship, it is Errol’s former relationship with his stepdaughter, Jana Bezuidenhout, that has raised the most eyebrows.

In a recent wide-ranging interview on Australian radio show, The Kyle and Jackie O Show on KISS 1965, Errol opened up about this relationship, how the Musk family aren’t big spenders and why he thinks Elon is a “nice guy”.

After he and Heide split, Errol did not see or hear from Jana for years until she called him in 2014 to say that she was “battling”. Errol went on to explain that Jana had an eight-year-old daughter at the time, adding that he knew Jana was a “lovely girl”. Errol offered to help Jana and a romantic relationship developed, although the two are no longer together today. They had their first child, a son Elliot, in 2017. The couple went on to have a daughter in 2019, reported The Independent.
