00:00 Elon Musk finally revealed what it was actually like in his relationship with Amber Heard
00:12 following her divorce from Johnny Depp.
00:15 And it was really toxic, guys.
00:18 Even though Elon Musk first met Amber when he saw her in the movie Machete Killed back
00:24 in 2013.
00:30 Their romantic relationship didn't really start until 4 years later, after she and Johnny
00:35 Depp had divorced.
00:44 And then from there, their initial dates between Amber and Elon were often related to work.
00:49 Like Amber would fly to surprise Elon on his birthday at the Tesla factory over in California,
00:56 or Elon would visit her on the set of Aquaman in Australia.
01:01 And Elon Musk and Amber Heard, they both had a lot of experience dealing with unhealthy
01:06 romantic relationships.
01:09 So yeah, it was like a ticking time bomb ready to go off in their relationship.
01:15 They began dating shortly after both of them were divorced from their exes, and both had
01:20 challenging relationships with their ex-spouses.
01:23 Elon Musk's new biography titled Elon Musk, released in September 2023, it includes actually
01:29 some comments from him and others close to him, including comments from Amber Heard.
01:34 And in one of the chapters, their romantic relationship was described as brutal.
01:44 Elon Musk also talked about the difficult time after their breakup, from the summer
01:49 of 2017 to the fall of 2018.
01:52 And he said this, and I quote, "That was the most painful time I've ever experienced.
01:57 18 months of constant turmoil.
02:01 It was incredibly painful."
02:04 Also in Elon Musk's biography, Walter Isaacson, he shared in the book that people close to
02:10 Elon Musk shared their views on why his relationship with Amber Heard was doomed from the start.
02:16 Walter Isaacson wrote that most of Elon's relationships have a lot of emotional turmoil
02:22 in them, so what he experienced with Amber Heard wasn't really new, it just may have
02:26 been taken to another level.
02:28 He considered the relationship with Amber Heard to be the worst, lasting over a year,
02:33 and causing lasting pain to him.
02:36 How did it start?
02:37 Was it bats?
02:38 Was it a...
02:39 Escape from a lab?
02:40 What is your assessment of what?
02:41 Because it's fairly recent.
02:42 Elon's chief of staff, Sam Teller, compared Amber Heard to the Joker from the Batman franchise,
02:48 saying that she seemed to enjoy chaos without a clear goal.
02:52 And then Elon's brother, Kimbal Musk, he also mentioned that Amber Heard had a talent
02:58 for creating her own version of reality, which reminded him of their father.
03:03 Musk's brother Kimbal describes Amber as quote, "toxic" and "a nightmare" in the book.
03:08 Elon Musk's biography also revealed some interesting aspects of his relationship with
03:13 Amber Heard.
03:14 Like, him and Amber used to engage in roleplay, where Amber Heard would dress up as Elon's
03:21 favorite video game character, which is Mercy from Overwatch.
03:25 Elon Musk even shared a photo on Twitter of Amber dressed up like this.
03:30 It was revealed that Amber Heard put a lot of effort into creating a full costume for
03:35 this roleplay, despite their toxic relationship, Amber did express her love for Elon.
03:40 And this is what she said.
03:41 "Amber says in the biography, 'I love him very much.
03:45 Elon loves fire, and sometimes it burns him.'"
03:48 So she's calling herself fire?
03:50 And she can burn people?
03:51 Wow.
03:52 Also, Elon Musk's ex-partner Grimes had something to say about Amber Heard.
03:58 By the way, Grimes shares two children with Elon Musk.
04:01 Grimes referred to Amber as "chaotic evil" and suggested that this quality initially
04:06 attracted Elon to her.
04:07 Grimes also mentioned that Elon associates love with being treated poorly, and this is
04:13 possibly due to his upbringing with his father, Errol Musk.
04:17 They didn't really have a great relationship growing up.
04:19 Elon Musk's ex-wife, Tallulah Riley, also echoed this sentiment, and she said that deep
04:25 inside of Elon Musk, there's a part of him still affected by his father's influence.
04:31 So when you take that, what Elon Musk is dealing with, plus with who Amber Heard is, yeah,
04:36 that's like a dynamite.
04:37 Guys, but I'm curious to know what you think.
04:40 Did this come as a surprise, like Elon Musk dating Amber Heard and how the relationship
04:45 actually was?
04:46 Like literally described as brutal.
04:49 And if the relationship was really that bad, it's a good thing that Elon Musk never had
04:56 any children with Amber Heard.
04:58 I think he's now at 11 children with different women.
05:02 None of them include Amber Heard, thank God.
05:05 For both of their sakes, I'm saying this.
05:07 But that's my two cents on this guys.
05:09 Of course, join in on the conversation down below.
05:11 Thanks for hanging out with me in another video here on FTD News, and I'll catch you
05:14 guys in the next one.
