In a rare and intimate gathering, the Musk family came together this weekend to celebrate Maye Musk’s 77th birthday — and the party had an especially sweet twist. For the first time, Elon Musk’s 14th child made a public appearance, marking a three-generation moment that guests described as “absolutely unforgettable.”
A Private Celebration, Full of Surprises
Held at a private residence in Los Angeles, the celebration was described by attendees as a warm, family-first event rather than a celebrity spectacle. The backyard was transformed into a lush garden party space, with strings of golden lights, long banquet tables draped in white linen, and a dessert table featuring a towering lemon chiffon cake — Maye’s favorite.
The most emotional moment of the afternoon came when Elon arrived quietly, carrying his youngest in his arms. Guests say Maye’s face “lit up completely” when she saw them, before embracing both father and child in a long hug.
Three Generations in One Frame
Photographers captured a touching moment where Maye, Elon, and the new baby sat together at a table, laughing as Elon’s older children took turns making the infant giggle. A framed portrait of the three generations, taken on the spot, was later gifted to Maye as part of her birthday presents.
“This wasn’t about headlines or business,” one guest shared. “It was about a grandmother, her son, and her grandchild — pure family joy.”
A Family Known for Milestones
While the Musk family is often in the public eye for technological and entrepreneurial achievements, those close to them say Maye’s birthday was a reminder of their private, personal bonds. The event included heartfelt speeches from Elon’s siblings, Tosca and Kimbal, as well as a video montage of Maye’s life, narrated by her grandchildren.
Guests left with personalized keepsakes — miniature photo albums featuring candid shots from the party — and a sense that they’d witnessed something truly special.
Maye’s Reflection
In a brief toast, Maye reportedly thanked her family for “the greatest gift — being together.” She added with a smile: “Seventy-seven feels like twenty-seven when I’m surrounded by so much love.”
As the sun set and the party wound down, Elon was seen quietly packing up his youngest’s stroller, a small but telling image of the night’s true focus: family first, always.
