We already know entirely too much about Elon Musk’s sex life, but the details just keep coming in. The latest in what very well could just be a series of planted stories to remind you that he is single-handedly attempting to repopulate the world: The Wall Street Journal reported over the weekend that the billionaire destroyed a friendship and marriage all at once by having an affair with Nicole Shanahan, the ex-wife of Google co-founder Sergey Brin.
According to the bizarrely gossip-laden report from a publication that usually keeps things pretty buttoned up, Musk and Shanahan had a brief affair last fall. That little tryst seems to have been the final straw in Brin and Shanahan’s marriage, as the two divorced in January. It may have had an effect on the relationship between the two tech billionaires, too: According to the Journal, Brin has been working on selling off his investments in Musk’s companies and distancing himself from anything that bears the name of Tesla’s CEO.
