Vivian Wilson Files Petition to Legally Change Identity

Distancing From Father's Controversies and Media Scrutiny

WEB Vivian Wilson née Xavier Musk, the transgender child of billionaire Tesla founder Elon Musk, has filed a petition to legally change her name and gender. The petition was filed with the Los Angeles County Superior Court.

Wilson, formerly known as Xavier Alexander Musk, has announced her decision to become a woman and drop the Musk part of her surname in order to distance herself from her father.

Musk has come under fire for his controversial statements and actions, including his criticism of the transgender community. Wilson's decision to change her name and gender is seen as a rejection of her father's views and an attempt to establish her own identity.
