Vivian Wilson, the estranged daughter of billionaire Elon Musk, opened up about her financial situation after launching her modeling career earlier this year. At Saturday’s Teen Vogue 2025 Summit, the 21-year-old declared, “I am financially independent.”
“I’m currently earning money. [cover] Pre-Teen Vogue, no. You just have to cope with the fact that people have a lot of preconceived notions.
Wilson explored her career options and appeared on the fashion magazine’s March cover. She initially said she wanted to be a model before mentioning that she had also considered earning a living through Twitch streaming.
But according to Wilson, being on a reality show would be her “absolute dream.” “I haven’t made any money from being famous at all,” she told the outlet. “I have made zero dollars and zero cents. I do live in a lot of people’s heads rent-free, though,” she said.
Wilson talked about her money earlier this month, telling The Cut that although “people assume [she has] a lot of money,” she lives with multiple roommates in order to save money. Wilson asserted that although she is “much more fortunate than most people [her] age in Los Angeles,” she does not share Musk’s “desire to be super-rich.”
Earlier this month, Wilson told The Cut that although ‘people assume [she has] a lot of money,’ she lives with multiple roommates to save money.
Imagine Elon Musk disowning his daughter for choosing to walk her own path. Then, imagine him lining up with people that “mock & marginalize” & reject her…so, so sad. https://t.co/gqRhlGzrfc
