Elon Musk's Secret Child? Meet Solaris Celeste

Surprises are Elon Musk's specialty. Whether it's about rockets and robots or electric vehicles and AI, the billionaire business magnate always seems to capture the headlines. This time, however, it has nothing to do with Mars or Tesla shares. It has to do with a secret child.

Media outlets report that Musk and Australian actress Natasha Bassett have welcomed a baby girl named "Solaris Celeste" behind the scenes. And although neither Musk nor Bassett has officially come out with the announcement, the internet is already abuzz with interest, speculation, and naturally memes.

The Name That Sparked the Buzz

If Elon Musk is famous for anything (other than sending rockets into orbit), it's for giving his kids unusual names. Remember X Æ A-12 or Exa Dark Sideræl? Well, "Solaris Celeste" appears to be along the same lines otherworldly, sci-fi, and decidedly not normal.

Enthusiasts on social media have begun deciphering the name.

"Solaris" implies the sun, energy, and cosmic power.

"Celeste" means "heavenly.

Together, it is as if a name plucked from the pages of a science fiction book ideal for Musk's world.

Who is Natasha Bassett?

For those who might not know, Natasha Bassett is an Australian actress who has appeared as Dixie Locke in the 2022 Elvis biopic. She has appeared in a number of TV series and movies, but her link with Musk has largely been private.

There have been rumors of their romance since way back in 2022 when the two were seen together. Since then, they've been keeping things quiet making this reported baby news so surprising.

Musk's Growing Family

Elon Musk is already the father of over 10 kids with various partners, including Canadian singer Grimes and Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis. Musk has frequently discussed his conviction in accelerating population growth, even going as far as to tweet that "a collapsing birth rate is the biggest threat to civilization."

With Solaris Celeste, if the news is to be believed, Musk goes on living according to his own philosophy literally crafting his legacy, one one-of-a-kind named child at a time.

Internet Reactions

As predicted, the supposed baby news was trending on social sites. Twitter (now X) filled with jokes, speculations, and appreciation for the name selection. Some used it as "beautifully cosmic," but others teased that Musk's children will require a NASA ID to just attend school.

A leading meme even likened Musk's expanding family tree to a "galactic empire."

Final Thoughts

While neither Musk nor Bassett has made an official statement yet, the speculation is more than enough to keep the internet entertained. Whether true or not, the story once again shows how Elon Musk blurs the lines between reality and sci-fi.

After all, when you’re the man trying to colonize Mars, naming your baby Solaris Celeste almost feels… normal.

From rockets to unusual names, Musk proves one thing: in his world, the extraordinary is ordinary.
