Tesla founder Elon Musk’s mother, Maye, has opened up about her past dating life and disclosed the criteria she used to choose whom she would go for.
Where Elon Musk’s genius genes came from
In an interview with BBC shared on their TikTok page, the billionaire’s mum admitted she was a genius and only dated people who were smarter than her.
“I was the science nerd at high school. I didn’t really get many dates. I don’t know if men, boys rather, were scared of me or whatever, but I didn’t have many dates. So I wouldn’t date anybody who wasn’t as good at math and science as I was, and no one was. Although my ex-husband was,” she said.

Maye revealed her ex-hubby was better than her at math and science which she credited may be the reason why they got a brilliant son.
“I hate to admit that but that probably did help towards Elon being a genius,” she added.

“She’s a stunning woman.”

“Observe the ego, apply it to Elon.”

“Power. You can’t fake that energy darling.”

“Wow she cared about what genes his boy was to carry not just falling in love.”
Elon’s mum discloses she sleep’s in son’s garage
Maye revealed that when she visits her multi-billionaire son, Elon, she usually sleeps in his garage.
The mother of three said she is not interested in possessions at all; that could explain why she has no problem with sleeping in her son’s garage.
This comes barely four months after the world’s richest man revealed that he was homeless.
