Sex and relationships

  • The Twitter CEO married Talulah Riley twice before they called it quits for the last time – and she moved on with Game of Thrones star Thomas Brodie-Sangster
  • Tesla’s boss randomly dated Amber Heard for a hot minute, before she moved on with Bianca Butti, while Grimes is rumoured to be with whistle-blower Chelsea Manning

Everyone has a type, right? Perhaps not so much any more. Gone are the days when wives had to worry about their husbands leaving them for younger versions of themselves. Just ask Elon Musk.

The richest man in the world has not publicly been a player, and tends to be a one-woman-man if his dating repertoire is anything to go by. While he’s only been in a handful of serious relationships in recent years, one thing is for certain – Musk’s exes moved on to very different new partners.

You know when you stalk your ex’s new partner on social media to compare yourself and make yourself feel better? Musk probably can’t relate. Here’s why …

British actress Talulah Riley and Musk married in 2010 and had an on-off relationship for many years. In 2012, Musk filed for divorce. However, one year later, the couple remarried and announced they were officially back together. But history sadly repeated itself and, by the end of 2014, Musk filed for divorce a second time, withdrawing it after seven months, before Riley called it quits for good. By 2016, the marriage was officially over and done with.

These days, Riley is dating actor Thomas Brodie-Sangster – as in, the little boy from Love Actually. Yes, he’s 32 now and has had roles in The Queen’s Gambit, Maze Runner and Game of Thrones, but Talulah’s younger partner and his famous boyish looks are certainly a stark contrast to her billionaire businessman ex.
