Elon Musk’s estranged father, Errol Musk, has been accused of sexually abusing five of his children and stepkids.

A former politician and his billionaire son have had a strained relationship due to allegations of child sex abuse from several family members, which the former politician has strongly denied, according to an explosive investigation by the New York Times.

According to police and court records, personal correspondence, social workers and interviews with

family members obtained by the outlet, Errol was accused of abuse in South Africa and California.

The first accusation dates back to 1993. At that time, Errol’s stepdaughter, Jana Bezuidenhout, who was only 4 years old, allegedly informed family members that Errol had inappropriately touched her.

A decade later, Bezuidenhout reportedly told family members she caught Errol sniffing her dirty underwear when she went to her bedroom for a sweatshirt. Her relatives contacted the police, and Elon was made aware of the situation as well.

Errol denied the claim, saying he had been cleaning up his stepdaughter’s room because the house was “in a terrible state.”

Relatives have also accused Errol of abusing two of his daughters and a stepson.

Errol also denied those allegations, telling the New York Times that the claims he abused his stepson and two daughters were “nonsense” and “absurd.”

The former member of the Progressive Federal Party and the stepdaughter he allegedly abused became intimate when she was in her late 20s and had two kids together.

In 2022, their then-5-year-old son claimed Errol had allegedly grabbed his buttocks.

“He said, ‘Dad gropes his behind,’” Heide-Mari Bezuidenhout, Errol’s third ex-wife and Jana’s mother, allegedly texted a relative around 2023, per the New York Times. “He screamed, ‘No, dad.’”

The young child’s relatives contacted the police. However, the case was dropped by prosecutors due to insufficient evidence.

“There was no evidence because this is nonsense,” Errol told the NYT, insisting that “the reports are false and nonsense in the extreme.”

He also claimed the allegations were made up by relatives who allegedly put “the children up to say false things” to get money from Elon.

Errol, 79, told the New York Times that he was only aware of one abuse allegation, but offered explanations for two of the other incidents. He has not been convicted of any crime.

Family members told the outlet that some relatives have allegedly been leaning on Elon for help. In 2023, the Tesla CEO, 54, was reportedly paying about $1,700 a month to support his former stepsister.

Reps for Elon did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
