In a heartbreaking and emotional announcement just 55 minutes ago, Elon Musk, the billionaire entrepreneur and CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, broke down in tears as he revealed that his 77-year-old mother, Maye Musk, had suddenly collapsed at a private residence in Texas, USA. She was immediately rushed to a nearby hospital, where she remains in critical condition.
According to initial reports, Maye Musk lost consciousness without warning earlier today. Emergency services were called immediately, and paramedics administered emergency care at the scene before transporting her to the hospital. Despite the medical team’s efforts, she has not regained consciousness since her arrival, and doctors are now closely monitoring her condition.
Speaking to the press outside the hospital, a visibly shaken Elon Musk said, “This is the hardest moment of my life. My mother is my hero. She’s strong, brilliant, and the reason I am who I am. We are hoping for a miracle right now. Please keep her in your thoughts.”
Maye Musk, a Canadian-South African model and dietitian, is well known in her own right for her decades-long career in fashion and nutrition. Celebrated for her grace, intelligence, and independence, she has become a symbol of ageless beauty and empowerment. Over the years, she has been featured on the covers of major magazines and has spoken candidly about raising her children as a single mother while pursuing her career and education.

Social media has been flooded with messages of support for the Musk family. Fans, celebrities, and public figures across the globe are expressing their concern and sending prayers for Maye’s recovery. The hashtags #PrayForMaye and #StayStrongElon are currently trending on X (formerly Twitter), as the world watches closely for further updates.
Medical staff have not yet released a formal statement regarding the cause of the collapse, but sources close to the family indicate that doctors are running a series of tests to determine whether it may have been a cardiac event, stroke, or another underlying condition.
Elon Musk has reportedly canceled all public engagements and meetings to remain at his mother’s side. He is accompanied by his siblings, Tosca and Kimbal Musk, who have also requested privacy and prayers during this deeply personal and painful time.
This sudden health crisis has come as a shock to many, especially given Maye Musk’s active lifestyle and frequent appearances in both fashion and media events. Just last month, she was seen walking the red carpet at a high-profile event in New York, looking radiant and full of life.
As the world waits for more information, the outpouring of love and support from people of all backgrounds underscores just how admired Maye Musk is—not only as a public figure but as a mother, role model, and resilient woman.
Our thoughts are with the Musk family as they navigate this incredibly difficult and uncertain moment. We hope for strength, healing, and, most importantly, a full recovery for Maye Musk.
