Elon Musk is stepping down as CEO of Twitter. He shared the news on the social platform on Thursday May 11, tweeting: "Excited to announce that I’ve hired a new CEO for X/Twitter. She will be starting in ~6 weeks!"
Elon will "transition to being exec chair & CTO, overseeing product, software & sysops". He purchased the website in October 2022 and invited back users who had previously been suspended, including former President Donald Trump .Many celebrities left the site when he removed the blue checkmark, which confirmed a user was verified, and allowed anyone to purchase the tick for $8 a month.The news comes after he previously claimed he would step down when he found someone “foolish enough to take the job", after promising to abide by the result of a Twitter poll in which he asked users if he should step down. More than 57% voted “yes," he should step down.
The billionaire frequently makes headlines, and is also the founder, CEO and chief engineer of SpaceX, and CEO and product architect of Tesla, Inc. He has ten children from three different romances; Elon's first wife was Justine and the pair married in 2000. The couple welcomed their first son, Nevada Alexander Musk in 2002, however he tragically died from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome at ten weeks old.
Justine and Elon went on to have twins, Griffin and Vivien, in 2004 before welcoming triplets, Kai, Saxon and Damian, two years later. But the marriage wasn't to last and the husband and wife parted ways in 2008.
Elon's next high-profile relationship was with actress Talulah Riley. The star is known for her roles in titles such as Pride & Prejudice, Inception and St Trinian's. Talulah and Elon married in 2010 but two years later Elon called off their marriage and filed for divorce.
However, a year later, the pair remarried and announced they were officially back together. But, by the end of 2014, Elon had filed for divorce again and by 2016, the marriage was over.
