Elon Musk has purchased a large estate in Austin, Texas, with plans to house all eleven of his children and their mothers. This unique arrangement aims to facilitate his time with his children and foster connections among them.

The entrepreneur Elon Musk intends to bring all 11 of his children and their moms together in an unusual family arrangement. According to The New York Times, he has paid Rs 35 million for a 14,400-square-foot estate in Austin, Texas, along with a six-bedroom property next to it. According to the reports, Elon Musk's Texas home is only ten minutes away from the opulent residence, which has a Tuscan-inspired style.

According to reports, Musk, Tesla and SpaceX CEO, thinks the unique arrangement would allow him to plan his time with his kids and help them be involved in each other's lives. Since 2002, Musk has fathered twelve children. But at barely 10 weeks old, his first kid with his ex-wife, Justine Musk, passed away from SIDS.
