In a surprising turn of events, noted conservative personality Ashley St. Clair announced last Friday that she quietly welcomed a baby five months prior, and the father is none other than tech behemoth, Elon Musk, the leader of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). The motivation behind the announcement was to negate the possibility of any intrusive tabloid coverage that may detrimentally affect the child’s privacy.
Musk, well known for his professional accomplishments, has also made headlines for his personal life. He’s fathered 12 children with three different women prior to this revelation: Justine Wilson, his former spouse, the celebrated singer Grimes, and Shivon Zilis — a senior executive in his company, Neuralink. The significant fact here is that his first child with Wilson tragically passed away due to a sudden infant death syndrome-related incident, just weeks after being born.
Musk is an outspoken figure with regards to declining human birth rates. His unease around this topic was voiced in October 2024, where he expressed deep concerns about the potential vanishment of entire societies due to these declining rates. The birth of his latest child reflects a personal response towards this global issue.
St. Clair posted the details regarding the birth of her child on platform X last Friday. According to her, the child was born five months prior to the announcement, with Musk being the father. St. Clair kept this news under the wraps all this time to ensure her child’s safety and privacy were not compromised.
Reporters have found themselves in a bit of a muddle over St. Clair’s actual age. Conflicting news articles peg her age somewhere between 26 to 31, adding to the enigmatic aura surrounding her.
Aside from her prominence in conservative circles, St. Clair also dabbled in writing. She penned articles for the Babylon Bee, a conservative satirical website well known for its unique takes on societal issues.
In 2021, St. Clair ventured into the realm of children’s literature. She composed a heartwarming tale of a singing elephant named Kevin, making a salient point that one can pursue their passions while still staying true to who they are — just like Kevin who loved singing but still embraced his elephant self.
St. Clair’s contributions to conservative initiatives are manifold, and these contributions extend beyond the sphere of writing. Notably, in 2024, she was highlighted on a calendar associated with a conservative beverage label.
Previously, it was known that St. Clair had made the conscious decision to discontinue certain medications. According to her old posts, this decision has greatly improved her mental wellbeing, showcasing her commitment to mental health advocacy.
In the aftermath of St. Clair’s astonishing revelation, Musk has surprisingly remained silent on the topic. While still active on various social media platforms, Musk has neither confirmed nor denied the reports regarding the newest addition to his brood.
