Elon Musk's Alleged Affair With Google Co-Founder's Wife Sparks Viral Reactions And Memes

Elon Musk has recently made waves online with the reveal of him having more previously unknown kids, but that wasn't the end of his viral intimate exploits this month.

A recent report from the Wall Street Journal has indicated that the cause of Google co-founder Sergey Brin, a close personal and financial friend of Musk for over a decade, divorcing his wife earlier last month was due to Musk having an affair with her that caused an "irreconcilable" divide between the two. This divide eventually also formed between Musk and Brin, with Brin reportedly pulling out his financial investments into Musk's properties and businesses.

The WSJ's story on the high-profile affair rapidly went viral online, leading to many mixed reactions from users on social media platforms like Twitter.

😳“At a party ear­lier this year, Mr. Musk dropped to one knee in front of Mr. Brin and apol­o­gized pro­fusely for the trans­gres­sion, beg­ging for for­give­ness, ac­cord­ing to peo­ple with knowl­edge of the in­ci­dent.”⁦@KirstenGrind⁩ https://t.co/RjCIdHDSUS

Alongside some who were more shocked to hear the news, many were seemingly unsurprised to learn of Musk's latest intimate escapades. This prompted a lot of sarcastic reactions and hot takes on Twitter, with some denouncing Musk and others taking the opportunity to simply crack jokes about the story.

Some select people also took to pointing out some unbelievable excerpts from the situation, such as the news that Mr. Brin, who is still the eighth richest person in the world, is now engaging in nondescript "Olympic Sports" in his spare time.
