AceShowbiz - Elon Musk may be the richest man in the world, but his dad Errol is still not impressed. The father of the Tesla founder continued to make headlines as he dissed the billionaire in a new interview on the "Kyle and Jackie O" radio show in Australia on Monday, August 1.
During his appearance on the show, Errol was asked if he's proud of Elon, to which he immediately said "no" before the hosts even finished the question. "No. … I mean, we are a family that have been doing a lot of things for a long time," he explained. "It's not as though we suddenly started doing something. So we've all been, you know, as a family all doing things … from the very beginning."
The 76-year-old added, "I mean, the kids were traveling with me around the world when they were tiny. They've been doing pretty much very interesting things. We've been down to the Amazon together, for example. We've been to China, you know, long ago when it was quite difficult to get there."
"They've seen a lot of things, and we've done a lot of things together. But Elon has really surpassed the mark," he shared, noting that the SpaceX CEO is not as "happy as he'd like to be." Errol went on to say, "He feels like he's behind schedule. Where he is now, he would have liked to have been there five years ago."
Errol also commented on recent photos of a pasty white-looking Elon Musk having fun while going shirtless on a yacht in Greece. "Elon is very well built, very strongly built, but he's been eating badly," he shared, adding that he had tried to recommend weight-loss supplements to his son but to no avail.
As for his favorite child, Errol said that it's Elon's brother, Kimbal, whom he called his "pride and joy." He divulged, "Kimbal has managed to find a girl, she's educated, she has I believe a master's degree... they're married now, and she goes with him everywhere. I very concerned for Elon that he doesn't."
