How Many Times Has Elon Musk Been Married?
Quick answer: 3 marriages to 2 women. Keep reading for the full breakdown.
Elon Musk has been legally married 3 times, but to only 2 women. He married his college sweetheart Justine Wilson in 2000 (divorced 2008), then married British actress Talulah Riley in 2010 (divorced 2012), and then married Riley again in 2013 (divorced 2016). He has not married since, though he has had children with three additional partners.
The double marriage to Talulah Riley is one of the more unusual aspects of Musk's personal life. Both have spoken publicly about their relationship with warmth despite the two divorces. Riley has described Musk as a genuinely kind person whose intense work commitments made traditional married life impossible, while Musk has called Riley a wonderful person who remains a friend.
