Elon Musk's mystery girlfriend engages with Ivanka Trump, Jeff Bezos at exclusive donor dinner

The mother of three of Musk's children was spotted with him at Trump's pre-inauguration dinner in Washington, DC.

Shivon Zilis, the 38-year-old mother of three children with Elon Musk, stepped into the public eye at President-Elect Trump’s pre-inauguration donor dinner in Washington D.C. Although Zilis has largely kept a low profile over the years, attending the event marked a rare public appearance alongside her partner.

Zilis, a director at Neuralink, has supported Musk from behind the scenes for years. However, on this occasion, she proudly joined him at the star-studded event that included notable figures such as Ivanka Trump and Jeff Bezos. The dinner, set under candlelight, saw the couple engaged in friendly conversation with other key players in the upcoming Trump administration.

For the evening, Zilis wore a sleek black V-neck dress, her shoulder-length brown hair styled straight, and looked fondly at Musk, with whom she shares three children. The couple’s journey together began when Zilis worked on the board at the non-profit OpenAI, which Musk founded in 2015. In 2021, they welcomed twins Strider and Azure, and a third child followed in June 2024. The identity of the baby, however, remains a mystery, with Musk choosing to keep the child’s gender and name private.

Musk's growing family has been widely reported, particularly after the billionaire revealed he had fathered a total of 12 children. Insiders have even revealed Musk’s decision to purchase a sprawling Texas mansion worth $35 million, where he plans to house his multiple exes and children in adjoining properties.

Despite the drama surrounding his family dynamics, Musk is showing no signs of slowing down in his personal or professional life. His companies, including Tesla and SpaceX, continue to break new ground, solidifying his $270 billion net worth. And as his family expands, Musk remains focused on “re-populating the earth” and raising his many children, now including Zilis’s three kids.

Zilis, for her part, seems to have found a comfortable balance between her personal and professional life, maintaining a low profile while still being a major part of Musk’s world. Her appearance at the dinner marks a rare public glimpse into the life she shares with one of the world’s richest men.
