Elon Musk: Influencer Ashley St. Clair claims she gave birth to Elon Musk’s child 5 months ago

A conservative influencer has made a startling claim, alleging that tech billionaire Elon Musk is the father of her five-month-old child. If true, this would be Musk’s thirteenth child.
Ashley St. Clair, 31, took to X on Friday, the evening of Valentine’s Day, to announce the news, stating, “Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father.” She captioned her post with the Latin phrase “Alea iacta est,” meaning “the die is cast.”
In her statement, St. Clair said she had kept the matter private to protect their child’s “privacy and safety,” but decided to speak out after learning that the media planned to reveal it regardless.
“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 urged the press to respect their child’s privacy. “I intend to allow our child to grow in a normal and safe environment. For that reason, I ask that the media honour our child’s privacy, and refrain from invasive reporting.”
Three hours later, St. Clair followed up with another post thanking supporters and stating she would be stepping away from social media for a while.
“In all sincerity, appreciate the kind words. Wish I did not feel the need to make a statement. Kids should be off limits for journalists,” she wrote. “Will be spending time with my family & logging off for a while.”
If confirmed, this child would be Musk’s 13th, adding to his already large family. The Tesla founder has five children with his first wife, Justine Wilson—twins Vivian and Griffin, and triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian. He also shares three children with musician Grimes: X Æ A-12 (commonly referred to as “X”), Exa Dark Sideræl, and Techno Mechanicus. Additionally, Musk and Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis are parents to twins, Strider and Azure.
Recently, Musk attended a meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, where Zilis and their twins were also present. The PM brought gifts for Musk’s children. Earlier this week, Musk was also seen at a White House press briefing alongside his four-year-old son, Little X, with US President Donald Trump in the Oval Office.
St. Clair also returned to Instagram after a 40-week hiatus, posting a picture of herself at Donald Trump’s inauguration on 20 January. She has also met prominent figures like Kash Patel and Vivek Ramaswamy, who hold key positions in the current Trump administration.
Musk, who follows St. Clair on X, has yet to acknowledge the claim. His lawyers have not yet responded for confirmation.
