Ashley St. Clair Claims She Gave Birth to Elon Musk’s Child

NYC, 15 February 2025: Influencer and columnist Ashley St. Clair announced on Friday that she gave birth to Elon Musk’s child five months ago.
In a post on X, the social media platform owned by Musk, St. Clair wrote: “Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father.”
St. Clair, 26, stated that she had not previously disclosed this information to protect the child’s privacy and safety. However, she claimed that media interest forced her to make a statement.
“I have not previously disclosed this to protect our child’s privacy and safety, but in recent days it has become clear that tabloid media intends to do so, regardless of the harm it will cause,” she wrote. She further requested that the media refrain from invasive reporting.
Elon Musk, 53, has not publicly commented on the claim. If confirmed, this would be his 13th child. Musk has children from previous relationships with writer Justine Wilson, musician Grimes, and Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis.
St. Clair, known for her conservative views, is a columnist and author of the children’s book Elephants Are Not Birds.
In a follow-up statement, she thanked her supporters and expressed disappointment at having to make the announcement. She also stated that children should not be a subject of media scrutiny.
No further details have been provided regarding the child’s name or custody arrangements.
