Elon Musk recently slammed US YouTuber Zack Nelson, aka JerryRigEverything, calling him an “utter liar.” The Tesla CEO also addressed his child support payments, describing them as “extremely generous.” This comes amid ongoing controversies involving his exes, Grimes and Ashley St Clair.
Recently, Musk’s ex-girlfriend Grimes made a public plea for Musk’s “immediate attention” regarding a “medical crisis” involving one of their children. In now-deleted posts, she directly addressed Musk, writing: “Plz respond about our child’s medical crisis. I am sorry to do this publicly but it is no longer acceptable to ignore this situation. This requires immediate attention”. Clair, on the other hand, claimed to have given birth to his 13th child. Musk, is yet to respond to these rumours individually.

The debate began after an X user shared a comment from YouTuber Zack Nelson about Musk. Nelson wrote, “Abandons a 5 month old. Won’t pay child support for another 3. And leaves the shield behind at a major event… yikes”.
The tech billionaire responded to the post stating “Jerry is an utter liar.” He further added:
“I have always paid extremely generous child support and without any coercion to do so. Sometimes the mother asked for money vastly in excess of what the children could possibly need, so that needed to be adjudicated.”
The YouTuber replied back, stating “Calls me a liar while confirming he’s litigating multiple mothers child support payments… as the richest man in the world. In the spirit of transparency Elon – how many kids do you actually have?”.
