Elon Musk’s dad Errol Musk did not hold back during an interview with Kyle and Jackie O’s radio show on KIIS FM.
Errol, 79, was asked about some recent photos showing his eldest son Elon, whom he shares with his first wife Maye Musk, shirtless on a boat in the Greek island of Mykonos.
Errol said, “Elon is very strongly built but he’s been eating badly,” insisting he’d suggested his son take something to help with weight loss, called garcinia cambogia.

“I worry about him,” Errol told the hosts. “He loves people, he loves humanity,” the New York Post reported.
“Your offspring is a genius. He’s worth so much money and has created so many things, you can’t take that away from him. Are you proud?” presenter Jackie O asked at one point in the chat.
“No. You know, we are a family that have been doing a lot of things for a long time, it’s not as if we suddenly started doing something,” Errol responded.

Kimbal’s net worth is thought to be at around $700 million, while Elon’s is reportedly around $271.2 billion, making him the wealthiest person in the world.
Errol, who is also father to four other children, including his two children with his 35-year-old stepdaughter,
