Are there links for this?..I ask because, if true, this should be FAR more well known.

If yes, he is obligated by law to pay for them.
If they have reached adulthood, he has no legal requirement to help them.

since he has taken over Twitter company. I get it he is a busy man, but how do we know how involved he is with children. It certainly not something he would tell reporters about. Unless his children are destitute and homeless, I have no way to know what his involvement is with his children.

I have 2 children who are now grown up and on their own. I do not bother them every day. They are busy and I am busy.

She says that his given name is pronounced like "Ee-lone". I replied, "I calls 'em like I sees 'em. I ain't gonna say watermeelon and I ain't gonna say EElone". She gave up after a laughin' spell.

Like Roger Ebert. Elon.

Or Edith or Eli. Not that unusual.

I think it is a Hebrew name.

Jennifer claimed she previously spent time with Amber's mother, Paige, who talked with her in detail about the All the Boys Love Mandy Lane star's relationship with Elon.

"Paige told me that Amber said Elon was controlling, abusive, and that she was in a legal battle with him over the rights to embryos that they had created together," she recalled, adding that the billionaire wanted the embryos destroyed after they called it quits on their on-and-off romance, but Amber wanted to keep them.

Keep in mind this was before anyone even knew about the employee he impregnated via In vitro fertilization and that Amber Heard has never revealed who the father, which is likely because of a non-disclosure agreement.

Jennifer Howell was a close friend of Heard's family and got it from Amber's mother. Elon has a history of making women he sexually harasses sign non-disclosure agreements, like the one he tried to pay off with a horse but gave $250,000 instead.

And they actually never has sex with each other. Or were in any type of personal relationship.

So I was wondering if he had some weird goal to have a bunch of bio kids .
