The Wall Street Journal published an exclusive report that Elon Musk had an affair with the wife of Google founder Nicole Shanahan. How does Elon Musk react to this bad news?
Tweeting on Twitter, Elon Musk denied that he had cheated on Nicole and called the news reported by the Wall Street Journal untrue.
"Sergey Brin and I are friends and we just had a party together last night," he claimed on Twitter.
"I've only seen Nicole twice in three years, both with a lot of people around. Nothing romantic," he added. Even the richest person in the world also claims to have not had sex for a long time.
"Character assassination attacks have reached a new level this year. I worked very long hours, so there was no time (for cheating). None of the key figures accused were interviewed," added Elon Musk.
As reported, Elon Musk reportedly knelt down to beg for forgiveness in front of Sergey Brin after the Google founder learned of his wife's affair with the Tesla and SpaceX boss.
Musk was said to have had a brief fling with Nicole when they met at Art Basel, an art event in Miami, in December 2021. That prompted Brin, the world's eighth richest person with a net worth of $95 billion, to file for divorce in January 2022.
'irreconcilable differences' as the reason, but The Wall Street Journal on Sunday reported that it was Elon Musk's affair with Nicole that marked the end of their marriage. According to another source, Nicole and Sergey are already having marital problems due to the stress of COVID-19. They also argued about the care of their four-year-old daughter.
