Elon Musk took it upon himself to share a private photo of Amber Heard that was snapped during their relationship, resulting in his being branded as "disgusting".
Nothing that Musk does anymore should come as a surprise, as it seems that he raises eyebrows on almost a daily basis.
To give an example, a new biography revealed that the 53-year-old billionaire had a secret third child with 36-year-old Grimes.

The owner of X (formerly known as Twitter) caused alarm again as he shared a photo of Amber Heard in cosplay from the time that they were together.
The revelation came from the biography and was shared on the social media platform. Seeing that fans were interested in the photo, Musk was all too happy to share.

It isn't known whether he sought permission from Heard to share the snap, and it's also not known why he still has a fairly revealing picture of his ex-girlfriend on his phone.
Safe to say, some people online were not happy that he shared the image, as one person tweeted: "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."
A second person said: "Hopefully this was approved by her.. we don’t need another controversy."
Despite the backlash, Musk appeared to be overjoyed that Heard had cosplayed as a character from the hit game Overwatch, he penned: "She did dress up as Mercy. It was awesome."

Bizarrely, if this image is private, then this isn't the first time that Musk has shared an image of one of his partners without permission.
Last year, Musk decided to share a photo of his then-partner Grimes having a C-section with their friends and family.
Grimes expressed her disbelief at Musk's insensitivity, stating: "He was just clueless about why I'd be upset."
The billionaire has an interesting personal life, as although the status of his relationship with Grimes remains uncertain, the pair were spotted together in Portofino, Italy, last summer accompanied by their son.
Although they were not pictured together, reports from the Daily Mail suggest they stayed at the same upscale hotel during their visit.

Musk is the father of 12 children, born to three different women over the span of two decades. His first child was born in 2002, and his latest addition arrived in early 2024.
Musk had his first six children with his ex-wife, Justine Wilson, between 2002 and 2006. Later, he welcomed children with singer-songwriter Grimes and Shivon Zilis, the director of Neuralink Corp.
Musk’s 12th child was confirmed in June 2024, with the SpaceX CEO sharing that he and Zilis had welcomed the baby earlier in the year, clarifying that he did not "secretly" father the child.
