Justine Musk

I read this in 2010 and started hating that man right there and then. What a nasty POS. More on reddit.com

Iirc, Musk and his first wife met in college and later he talked her into a postnup that left her with nothing more than the house that was in her name despite him being worth millions by that time. He told her over and over that he was the alpha in the relationship despite her sucess as a writer. Fast forward nearly 20 years: The divorce between Elon Musk and his first wife, Justine Musk, was finally settled and involved significant financial settlements and arrangements. Justine Musk received a substantial divorce settlement, which included $6 million in cash, 10% of Musk’s stock in SpaceX and a $200,000 Tesla Roadster car. Initially, Justine Musk asked for $80,000 monthly in alimony and $2 million in cash. Musk first offered an $80 million settlement, which Justine turned down, insisting on part ownership of his companies Tesla and SpaceX. This was during a failed court appeal​​​​. In the end, the settlement included $20 million. He also covered Justine Musk’s legal fees during the case. Elon Musk was reported to have been paying $20,000 per month for his ex-wife's expenses, including clothing and shoes. This was on top of an unspecified alimony amount. The couple also shared custody of their five children, and Elon Musk took up the bill for their nannies’ payrolls. He also reportedly sends his ex-wife about $20,000 every month for clothes and other discretionary items​​​​​​. More on reddit.com

Someone earlier stated he chose business over family. Here are the literal first two sentences in the article: Elon Musk, the father of my five young sons, filed for divorce. Six weeks later, he texted me to say he was engaged to a gorgeous British actress in her early 20s who had moved to Los Angeles to be with him. More on reddit.com

Justine would definitely know how being abused by a powerful man looks like cause she lived through it with Elon. That blog post is also noteworthy today given that, in the recently posted excerpts from the biography of Elon's, several of Elon's lackeys compare Amber to a literal "comic-book villain" with one of them claiming that "she was like the Joker in Batman." Yet, as Justine rightly wrote, "Femme fatales and evil goddesses exist in fiction, in movies, in the public imagination; in real life, the women who get designated as either or both turn out to be as human as everybody else." I still cannot get over the fact that most actual adults preferred believing that Amber is a flesh-and-blood fictitious evil villain whose sole life-purpose is to cause chaos in the world than believe that Johnny Depp is the wifebeater he's already been declared to be by at least three judges .
