A date, kiss and …
“She and Musk had met years earlier during her internship, when she was still in college. She’d approached him with ideas for improving SpaceX. Her outreach had led to a date, which led to a kiss, and eventually sex, she told friends. The year after her internship, the billionaire had the fresh college graduate flown out to a resort in Sicily, before they ended things,” says the report as per the documents reviewed by The Wall Street Journal. Musk is said to have tried to restart their relationship but she rejected his advance.
“Sex acts in exchange of horse”
“One woman, a SpaceX flight attendant, alleged that in 2016 Musk exposed himself to her and offered to buy her a horse in exchange for sex acts,” said the report quoting another woman.
“Have my babies”
The report further claims that another woman who left the company in 2013 alleged in exit negotiations with SpaceX human resources and legal executives that Musk had asked her to have his babies. WSJ report also cites a fourth woman employees who is said to have “a month-long sexual relationship with Musk in 2014 while she directly reported to him.
