Vivian Jenna Wilson, the estranged transgender daughter of Elon Musk, has announced her intention to leave the United States. Wilson shared her decision on social media, saying that she no longer sees a future for herself in the country. She expressed her disillusionment after the election of Donald Trump, stating that even if anti-trans regulations don’t materialize, the mindset of those who supported him would continue to affect her.
Wilson’s thoughts on leaving the US stem from more than just politics. She cited her strained relationship with her father, Tesla’s Elon Musk, as a major factor in her decision. In previous statements, Wilson has spoken about the “toxic” childhood she experienced due to her father’s harsh parenting and public remarks. She has also criticized Musk for being unsupportive of her transgender identity.

Vivian described her upbringing with Musk as emotionally difficult, revealing a particular incident from her childhood when Musk yelled at her for having a high-pitched voice. She recounted the experience as “cruel,” which she says shaped her view of her father.
Musk’s public comments about his children, especially his daughter, have stirred controversy. He has often referred to Vivian by her birth name, an act known as “deadnaming,” which is considered disrespectful in the transgender community. Musk has also made disparaging remarks about Vivian’s political views, calling her a “full communist” and claiming that she had been “killed by the woke mind virus.”
Vivian’s decision to leave the US highlights the deep political and personal divides within the Musk family. As she plans her future outside the country, it remains clear that her relationship with her father continues to be a source of pain and conflict.
