When Justine first met Elon at Queen's University in Ontario, she wasn't exactly swept off her feet. She was an aspiring writer from a small Canadian town, fresh from a dramatic romance with a rebellious older guy who'd park his motorcycle beneath her dorm window. Elon wasn't like that—he was a clean-cut, upper-class kid with a South African accent who insisted they'd met at a party she knew she’d never attended. When he invited her out for ice cream, she agreed—but promptly blew him off. Years later, he’d confess he’d noticed her across a crowded common room and decided he needed to meet her.

But Elon, even back then, wasn’t known for accepting defeat. A few hours later, Justine heard a polite cough behind her in the overheated student lounge. Elon stood awkwardly, two chocolate-chip cones dripping down his wrists. As Justine later wrote, "He's not a man who takes no for an answer."

But wealth and success amplified those early warnings. Musk's net worth soared beyond $100 million when eBay bought PayPal in 2002, thrusting the young couple into an extravagant lifestyle filled with private jets, exclusive parties, and Hollywood glamour. Yet behind closed doors, cracks widened. Elon's drive for dominance seeped into their marriage. He frequently criticized Justine, bluntly telling her, "If you were my employee, I would fire you."

In a deeply personal reflection, Justine admits how foreign her life had become. “I barely recognized myself,” she writes. “I had turned into a trophy wife—and I sucked at it. I wasn’t detail-oriented enough to maintain a perfect house or be a perfect hostess. I could no longer hide my boredom when the men talked and the women smiled and listened.” Elon pushed her toward Hollywood perfection, urging her to go blonder, platinum even—something she stubbornly refused.

The most devastating chapter of their story unfolded with the tragic loss of their first-born son, Nevada Alexander, at just 10 weeks old to sudden infant death syndrome. Rather than grieving together, they pulled further apart. Elon saw Justine's grief as "emotionally manipulative," pushing her to bury her pain and swiftly have more children. IVF treatments followed quickly, producing twins and triplets. But something vital was already irreparably broken.
