Elon Musk has finally responded to author and conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair’s shocking claim that she secretly gave birth to his 13th child. The revelation, which spread like wildfire across social media, initially came from St. Clair, who alleged that she and Musk had been engaged in private co-parenting discussions but that he had failed to acknowledge their child publicly.
St. Clair, a prominent right-wing figure, made the claims via a social media post, stating that their child was born five months ago. She hinted at legal complications, urging Musk to “finalize their agreement.” The bombshell accusation stunned the internet, with speculation running rampant about Musk’s growing list of children, his relationships, and his famously erratic personal life.
After remaining silent for days, Musk finally addressed the controversy in a post on X (formerly Twitter). In his response, the billionaire dismissed St. Clair’s claims, calling them “entirely false.” He stated, “I have no idea where this is coming from. This is simply not true.” Musk did not provide further details but made it clear that he would not be engaging further on the topic.
Supporters of Musk quickly rallied behind him, accusing St. Clair of fabricating the story for attention. Others, however, pointed to Musk’s complicated personal history, noting his multiple children with different women, including singer Grimes and Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis. Some skeptics questioned whether Musk was denying the child outright or simply refusing to comment on ongoing legal matters.
The controversy took another turn when St. Clair doubled down on her claim, stating that Musk was attempting to “erase” her and their child. “I wouldn’t put this out there if it wasn’t true,” she wrote. She also implied that she had proof but did not immediately share any.
Meanwhile, reports surfaced that Musk’s transgender daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, learned about the alleged sibling through online rumors. Wilson, who distanced herself from Musk years ago, has not commented on the situation but is said to have been blindsided by the news.
As the situation unfolds, legal experts speculate on possible paternity disputes or confidentiality agreements behind the scenes. Whether this is another bizarre chapter in Musk’s already dramatic personal life or a baseless claim remains to be seen. For now, the tech mogul appears eager to move on—but the internet isn’t letting go just yet.
