Elon Musk responded with a brief “Whoa” after conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair claimed she gave birth to his child five months ago, revealing that they had been privately working on a co-parenting agreement but went public due to media pressure.
St. Clair, 26, criticized Musk for addressing online speculation instead of speaking directly with her and disclosed that their relationship began through DMs on X, with the pregnancy kept secret at his request for safety reasons. While Musk, who has 12 children with three other women, has not publicly confirmed his parental role, St. Clair urged the media to respect her child’s privacy, stating she spoke out only to prevent invasive tabloid coverage.
