Elon Musk has been criticised for sharing a private photo he took of Amber Heard while they were in a relationship.
The billionaire’s new biography, simply titled Elon Musk, has already made headlines, and now it’s been revealed that it includes an account of the time he asked then-girlfriend Heard to cosplay as a video game character for him.
Musk, 52, shared on X – formerly Twitter – a photo of Heard dressed up as the Overwatch character, adding ‘She did dress up as Mercy. It was awesome.’
But the photo has caused controversy, with his followers calling him out for sharing a private photo on a public platform.
‘Sorta goes without saying, but Elon Musk tweeting out a photo of Amber Heard in cosplay for his weird fanboys to drool over is f***ing disgusting,’ one person wrote, while another added, ‘Elon Musk sharing that picture of Amber Heard in cosplay is skeezy’.
The outcry comes just days after the mother of three of Musk’s children, Grimes, slammed him for sharing a photo of her caesarean section with their friends without asking her.
Grimes, 35, made the revelation in the biography, written by US journalist Walter Isaacson.
