Musk’s firstborn child, a son named **Nevada Alexander Musk**, was born in 2002 to Elon and his first wife, Justine Musk. Tragically, Nevada passed away at just **10 weeks old** due to sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). This loss was a heartbreaking experience for Musk and his family.

After Nevada, Musk went on to have several other children with Justine Musk, including twins and triplets. His family expanded further with other partners, such as Talulah Riley and Grimes, and he has had children with other individuals as well.

So while it’s true that Musk has had 11 children, the story of his firstborn’s tragic death at a young age is certainly one of the more poignant chapters of his life.
