On top of that, it was Brin who gave Tesla $500,000 during the 2008 financial crisis when the company was floundering.
It’s unclear how long the romance lasted but it occurred in the same month that Musk welcomed a baby girl via a surrogate with his ex-girlfriend Grimes, and was a month after he secretly welcomed twins with a former executive from one of his companies.
