The X owner already has two other children with Canadian singer Grimes, 35, whose real name is Claire Boucher.
Together, they also have son named X Æ A-Xii, born in May 2020, and daughter named Exa Dark Sideræl Musk, who arrived in December 2021 via surrogate.
They call them X and Y for short, which are also the names of electric cars made by Musk's firm, Tesla.
The biography on Musk - titled 'Elon Musk' - was written by American writer and journalist Walter Isaacs, who shadowed the tech boss for two years.
