Elon Musk’s fiery feud with his trans daughter Vivian Wilson has deepened after she accused him of berating her for ‘having a high voice’ when she was a young boy.
In an interview with conservative commentator Jordan Peterson earlier this week, Musk said that he was tricked into signing away his ‘son’ Xavier, using Wilson’s former name, to allow her to go on puberty blockers.
Referring to Wilson with male pronouns and by her birth name, Musk claimed that his ‘son’ had been ‘killed by the woke mind virus’.
Posting on X’s arch rival site Threads, owned by Mark Zuckerberg ‘s Meta, Wilson hit back at her comments, claiming she had no idea ‘where he got this from’.
Now, the 20-year-old has taken a step further by painting a scathing picture of her father in an interview yesterday by saying he was absent and bullied her for being queer.

‘I think he was under the assumption that I wasn’t going to say anything and I would just let this go, unchallenged,’ she told NBC News.
‘[But] I’m not going to do [that] because if you’re going to lie about me, like, blatantly to an audience of millions, I’m not just gonna let that slide.
‘I was in fourth grade. We went on this road trip that I didn’t know was actually just an advertisement for one of the cars — I don’t remember which one — and he was constantly yelling at me viciously because my voice was too high. It was cruel.’
Discussing his comment that he had been ‘tricked’ into approving gender-affirming medical care for Vivian, she added: ‘He was not by any means tricked.’
She went on to describe the puberty blockers and hormone replacement therapy she received as ‘saving lives’.
In a post on X, Musk also said that Wilson was ‘born gay and slightly autistic’ and that, at age 4, she fit certain gay stereotypes, such as loving musicals.
Wilson replied by saying: ‘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.
‘I’ve been reduced to a happy little stereotype,’ she continued. ‘I think that says alot about how he views queer people and children in general.’

The father and daughter have long had a contentious relationship, with Musk having called her a ‘communist’ who thinks ‘anyone rich is evil’.
When asked about gender dysphoria, he added: ‘It’s incredibly evil and I agree with you that the people that are promoting this should go to prison.’
Musk said that his right-wing awakening has been spurred on by this process and the trickery he claims was played upon him.
‘I vowed to destroy the woke mind virus after that and we’re making some progress,’ he said.
The South African billionaire has fathered a reported 12 children over last 22 years and has spoken publicly about his view that the world is underpopulated.
He had his kids with three different women, Canadian author Justine Wilson, the mother of Vivian, musician Grimes and his employee, Shivon Zilis. His youngest child, with Zilis, was born in 2024.
Wilson legally changed her gender to female and her name from ‘Xavier’ to Vivian Jenna Wilson in 2022, while revealing in court filings she ‘no longer wishes to be related’ to Musk ‘in any way’.
Vivian filed the petition just three days after her 18th birthday, though the court documents weren’t made public until the day after Fathers Day.
