Elon Musk‘s daughter, Vivian Wilson, recently announced her intentions to leave the United States following Donald Trump’s victory in the US Presidential Elections. Thus, she joined other prominent celebrities like Sharon Stone and Cher, who have reportedly made the same intentions. Accordingly, fans are wondering why she is departing and what her reasons for it are.
Here is what we have uncovered on the subject.
Here’s why Elon Musk’s daughter is ‘leaving’ the US after Trump victory
Elon Musk’s daughter, Vivian Wilson, revealed via Threads that she is leaving the United States because she no longer sees a future there.
“Even if he’s only in office for 4 years, even if the anti-trans regulations magically don’t happen, the people who willingly voted this in are not going anywhere anytime soon,” she added.
Wilson’s Threads post received mixed reactions from netizens, some expressing sympathy and compassion. One user expressed sadness at Vivian’s intended departure and begged her to reconsider. The user claimed America and the community still needed her because she had a “vital voice.”
“I’m so sorry you have to go through this,” wrote another user.
However, there were others who seemed more negative or harsh. A user mockingly told her to go back to South Africa, where she “came from,” only to be corrected by another user who pointed out she was American.
Vivian Wilson is estranged from her wealthy father, a staunch supporter of Trump. In 2022, Wilson filed a petition in California to legally change her name from Xavier Alexander Musk to her current name, as she did not wish to be related to Elon Musk anymore.
Moreover, in an interview with NBC News, Wilson only had negative things to say about Musk. Here, she had called him an absent and unsupportive father and that he often criticized her whenever they were together. “He is uncaring and narcissistic,” she said. Wilson also claimed that Musk had a short temper.
Furthermore, she also mentioned that Musk yelled at her once for having a high-pitched voice. This was while they were on what she called a “road trip” during fourth grade, which she did not know was just an advertisement for one of the Tesla cars.
