Conservative author Ashley St. Clair, aged 26, disclosed that she shares a child with Elon Musk, one of the wealthiest individuals globally. St. Clair introduced her five-month-old child to the world, alleging that Musk is the father. Owing to safeguarding the infant’s privacy and security, she initially decided not to declare this information. However, considering the imminent likelihood of a media leak, she felt compelled to take matters into her own hands.
She accused Musk of not responding to her attempts to communicate over the last few days. Having 12 kids from three different relationships, Musk did not verify or contest St. Clair’s declaration. His response came when reacting to another user who insinuated that St. Clair had planned her pregnancy beforehand.
The conversation took a turn when an image surfaced showing St. Clair attempting to allure Musk with a marriage proposal. In response to this, Musk, surprisingly, stated his intention to disconnect from the online world for the weekend to focus on a project related to Artificial Intelligence, instead of directly addressing the topic at hand.
A former employee of a spoof site, St. Clair, asked Musk when he plans on answering them directly rather than publicly replying to someone who just disclosed unsuitable images of her. St. Clair emphasized that Musk’s team was already aware of the social media exchanges, which she stated were certainly made in a teasing manner.
She then revealed that conversations with Musk did indeed occur about potential encounters, culminating in a job interview at a San Francisco-based corporation. Following this meeting, St. Clair claims to have received yet another message from the magnate that included an invitation to travel.
According to St. Clair, the business tycoon requested that she keep her impending motherhood a secret, and she concurred to exclude Musk’s name from the child’s birth certificate, aimed at cherishing his privateness. She asserts that she was lodged in an opulent suite in the heart of New York’s financial quarter during this time.
St. Clair’s friends were allegedly required to sign confidentiality agreements, and she had to withhold information about her pregnancy from others, distinctly influencing her professional and personal life. A spokesperson on behalf of St. Clair mentioned that she and Musk had been discreetly discussing plans for their child’s upbringing.
Up until now, Musk hasn’t publicly commented on these revelations. The tycoon, originally from South Africa, and a vocal critic of declining birth rates, already has 12 children from his prior relationships. His first marriage with Justine Wilson, a Canadian author, gave him five children.
The couple experienced the devastating loss of their firstborn child. One of their kids, Vivian, initially named Xavier, underwent a gender transition, to which Musk responded controversially during a media interact. Musk and Wilson remained married from 2000 until their separation in 2008.
The multi-billionaire entrepreneur’s connection with the singer Grimes led to the birth of three more children. Recently, their relationship experienced turmoil when Grimes voiced her dissatisfaction with Musk’s decision to showcase their toddler at a public gathering, expressing concerns for the child’s privacy.
Musk also has three children with Shivon Zilis, an executive at Neuralink, one of his numerous ventures. Though this situation continues to develop, the potential impact on both St. Clair and Musk’s personal and professional lives remains to be seen.
