<p>World’s richest man <a href="https://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2025/05/amber-heard-twins-elon-musk/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Elon Musk has added another shocking breakup </a>to his already complicated relationship history.</p>
<p>Shivon Zilis, the tech executive who shares four children with the billionaire, revealed Friday that Musk abruptly ended their romantic relationship — and she says she never saw it coming.</p>
<p>“It’s hard to go from in love to let go in a week with no warning, but that’s just how it is sometimes,” Zilis wrote in a lengthy post on X.</p>

<p>According to Zilis, she and Musk were still very much together just days before their relationship suddenly came to an end.</p>
<p>In fact, Zilis shared screenshots of what appear to be some of their final text exchanges.</p>
<p>On September 24, she told Musk it was “really wonderful” to see him for breakfast and added, “Love you very much.”</p>
<p>“Love you too,” Musk replied (via <em><a href="https://people.com/elon-musk-abruptly-broke-up-with-shivon-zilis-she-reveals-on-x-12154506?link_source=ta_first_comment&taid=6abfdbefe5b66800013a6f6f&utm_campaign=peoplemagazine&utm_content=manual&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&fbclid=IwY2xjawUsvHdleHRuA2FlbQIxMABwZG9mAWJyaWQRMWQ1dUI1em1PVUpaWWRNTUNzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEerK52YeLK_x4DxKchNXCe79j5RilOOM0UZYMXEzHNEWE5mbqMSn4ixKnHvx0_aem_nSwpkO_WeZgBGMW_b1iEFg" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">People</a></em>).</p>
<p>He also apparently told Zilis that he had not realized he could have invited her to a recent White House state dinner for Chinese President Xi Jinping.</p>
<p>“Aw,” Zilis responded. “That means so much to me. Thank you.”</p>

</div></figure>
<p>A few days later, however, Zilis posted a cryptic message on X: “New day, new life.”</p>
<p>Now we know why.</p>
<p>Zilis and Musk share four children: twins Strider and Azure, born in 2021, daughter Arcadia, born in 2024, and son Seldon, whose birth was announced in 2025. Their relationship had remained relatively private until recent years.</p>
<p>Despite the abrupt split, Zilis did not appear interested in trashing her former partner.</p>
<p>Instead, she offered a complimentary assessment of Musk, writing that she was grateful she had been able to make him feel “deeply understood, nurtured, and peacefully loved with stability and gentleness.”</p>
<p>She also described their home and family as a “safe space” for Musk, saying it was filled with “happiness and love, not war.”</p>
<p>“I’m hurting, but care deeply about E and will always be cheering for his happiness,” Zilis wrote.</p>
<p>“God speed, Elon, the world is lucky to have you.”</p>
<p>Zilis added that she hopes she and Musk can remain friends and co-parents.</p>
<p>Musk, meanwhile, has not publicly explained what prompted the sudden breakup. His representatives did not immediately respond to <em>People</em>’s request for comment.</p>
<p>For now, Zilis appears to be doing something that might be considerably harder than ending a relationship with Elon Musk:</p>
<p>Trying to explain how a romance went from “Love you too” to over in roughly a week.</p>
<p>We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.</p>
