It has been revealed that Tesla boss; Elon Musk reportedly had an extramarital with Google Co-Founder; Sergey Brin’s wife, before their divorce.
According to a report in the Wall Street Journal published on Sunday, sources familiar with those involved, claim that Musk and Nicole Shanahan had a “brief affair,” which subsequently led Brin to file for divorce earlier this year, and ended a long-standing friendship between Brin and Musk.
The two tech titans were longtime friends until the Tesla titan had a brief affair with Nicole Shanahan last year, The Wall Street Journal said. Brin was reportedly among the first people to be given a Tesla vehicle when production got off the ground, and Brin reportedly gave Musk $500,000 in 2008 to keep Tesla afloat during the financial crisis.
Brin and Shanahan share a 3-year-old daughter. Meanwhile, Brin shares two children with his ex-wife Anne Wojcicki.

According to the WSJ report, Musk allegedly dropped to one knee at a party and openly begged for Brin’s forgiveness. The Google co-founder reportedly acknowledged the apology, but they have not rebuilt their relationship.
Brin and Shanahan had separated but were living together at the time of the affair in December, a person close to them told the Journal.
According to the report, Musk and Shanahan’s alleged fling occurred in early December, at the Art Basel event in Miami — which ran from Dec. 2 to Dec. 4.
