Conservative influencer and columnist Ashley St. Clair announced on social media Friday that Elon Musk is the father of a baby born last year.
St. Clair claimed about Musk’s social media platform X, which she had a child five months ago. Musk has not yet responded to this claim, and inquiries from USA Today to his companies SpaceX and Tesla have not been promptly returned.
Musk previously fathered 12 children, with at least three women.
St. from Brave Books, a Christian book publisher known for her children’s book, “Elephants Is Not Birds.” Clair said he posted information to X as “Tabloid Media” was about to publish the news.

In her post, St. Clair said, “Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is a father. I made this clear to protect the privacy and security of my child. I’ve never done it, but recently it’s been. Tabloid media makes it clear that they intend to do so regardless of the harm it causes.”

“I intend to ensure that my child grows in a normal, safe environment, so I ask the media to praise their child’s privacy and refrain from invasive reporting,” she posted.
She added the Latin phrase “Alea Iacta EST.”
St. Clair’s president Brian Glickrich also issued a statement about X, saying that parents “have been personally working towards creating an agreement on raising children for a while.”
“We are waiting for Elon to publicly acknowledge his parental role at Ashley and end the unfair speculation,” Glickrich’s statement said.
USA Today contacted St. Clair via email and via Glicklich, but did not provide any additional comments.
Elon Musk’s children
Last year, Mask had a 12th child.
The mask features three children, six children, his ex-wife and Canadian writer Justin Wilson, musician Grimes. Musk and Wilson’s eldest son passed away in 10 weeks.
As of Monday, the masks were not publicly responding to St. Clair’s claims. He responded to X’s post Saturday, “Ashley St. Clair plotted 50 years to steal Elon Musk.”
His reply: “Oops.”
Who is Ashley St. Clair?
St. Clair, who appeared as a conservative commentator for Fox News, told the New York Post in 2021 that her book, “Elephants Is Not Birds,” is a contrast to transgender acceptance.
Many X’s commenters wanted St. Clair, and she thanked them in subsequent posts, saying, “I appreciate all my kind words with all my sincerity. I wish I had felt I needed to make a statement. I don’t think so. Spend some time with my family and log off for a while.”
