Elon Musk has repeatedly approached female employees at SpaceX, a company he founded and leads, for sexual activities and to have his children, according to a new report.
The Wall Street Journal, citing interviews with dozens of people as well as text messages and other documents, describes the experience of four female employees at SpaceX who were showed an “unusual amount of attention” or pursued by one of the world’s richest people. That includes a SpaceX flight attendant who alleges that Musk in 2016 exposed himself to her and offered to buy her a horse in exchange for sex, and a woman who left the aerospace company in 2013 and claims Musk asked her to “have his babies.” After that woman declined to have his children, Musk began complaining about her performance and denied a raise. She later secured an exit package valued at more than $1 million, the Journal reports.
