In an X post, one of Elon Musk’s baby mama Shivon Zillis shared a side-by-side image of the billionaire businessman on his 54th birthday and a throwback one from his childhood.

In both images, the world’s richest man grinned over a birthday cake.  Elon’s latest celebrations featured a recreation of his childhood party cake.

“Happy birthday, rocket man”, she posted.

MADE IN MZANSI?

Although he is now a naturalised US citizen, Elon Musk has been an open book about his South African roots.

The X owner attended Pretoria Boys High School – a prominent English/Afrikaans school in the metropolitan area of Pretoria (now Tshwane).

After his parents’ divorce, Elon Musk left SA with his mom and siblings, Tosca and Kimbal, to emigrate to Canada. They later moved to the US.

Errol – who still lives in SA – speaks both English and Afrikaans fluently.

Elon became a naturalise US citizen in 2002.
