  • Errol Musk said he received a text from Musk telling him to stay quiet.

  • The father told Daily Mail Australia that his daughters wouldn't talk to him for a long time.

  • He said he has been proud of the man since he was a baby.

Errol Musk said that after he said he wasn't proud of his son, he was told to keep quiet.

In an interview with Daily Mail Australia, Musk said that he had answered "no" when asked if he was proud of his business partner.

She asked about being proud. He told the newspaper that it was only after listening to the recording that he realized.

If you ask a parent if they are proud of their son, they will tell you that they are.

Musk said his daughters didn't talk to him for a few days after he made the comments.

He wouldn't get upset about it because he knows it's not true. Musk said that the man just laughs at things.

He told the Daily Mail that he received a text from his son asking him to stay quiet.

"They've seen a lot of things, and we've done a lot of things together, but he has really surpassed the mark," Musk said in the interview.

Musk said his son was not as happy as he would like to be because he felt like he was behind schedule with his companies.

Musk is being sued by the platform after walking away from the deal. In October, the case will be heard in Delaware.
