Ashley St. Clair Says She Is The Mother of Elon Musk’s.

In a shocking twist that is rocking the Internet, conservative influencer and author Ashley St. Clair has revealed she is Elon Musk’s 13th baby mama. The revelation, announced on Musk’s own social media platform, X (formerly Twitter), has generated a heated debate about privacy, media ethics and the billionaire’s expanding brood.

The Announcement

Ashley St. Clair took to X on February 14, 2025, to express her emotional sentiments after having given birth five months earlier to a child belonging to Elon Musk. She said she had kept the news private to protect the child’s safety and privacy. But she went public after finding out that the tabloid media intended to break the story.

“Five months ago, I brought a new baby into the world. St. Clair wrote, “Elon Musk is the father. “I have not previously disclosed this in order to protect our child’s privacy and safety, but recently it has become clear that tabloid media intends to do so, regardless of the harm it will cause.” “I plan to let our child grow up in a normal, safe environment,” she added. In that regard, I request that the media respect our child’s privacy … and refrain from invasive reporting.”

St. Clair’s post was accompanied by the Latin phrase “Alea Iacta Est,” — “The die is cast” — and signaled that there would be no going back from this disclosure.

Who Is Ashley St. Clair?

Ashley St. Clair is a popular conservative influencer, author, and political commentator. She is best known as the author of the children’s book Elephants Are Not Birds, which espouses conservative values and pushes back against modern cultural narratives. The story’s protagonist is a character named Kevin, who discovers that while he may be able to sing, he is no bird, whatever culture may tell him.

St. Clair has been a vocal advocate for conservative views and frequently expressed her opinions on social media. She has also appeared at several public events, including Donald Trump’s election night party at Mar-a-Lago, where she rubbed elbows with politicians and business leaders.

Elon Musk’s Expanding Family

If St. Clair’s claim is accurate, this would be Elon Musk’s 13th child from four different relationships. Musk already has 12 children with three other women:

Justine Wilson: Musk’s first wife and mother of his six children. Their first son, Nevada Alexander, died tragically at 10 weeks. The couple went on to have twins, Vivian and Griffin, now 20, and triplets, Kai, Saxon and Damian, now 19.

Grimes: The musician and Musk have three children together: X Æ A-12 (popularly known as X), Exa Dark Sideræl (nicknamed Y) and Techno Mechanicus (nicknamed Tau).

Shivon Zilis: A Neuralink execuive, Zilis and Musk had twins Strider and Azure in 2021 and another child in early 2024, name and gender private.

Musk has stated numerous times that he believes humanity's future depends on having children. In May 2024, he wrote on Twitter, “Just have kids one way or another, or humanity will die with a whimper in adult diapers!.

 The Role of the Media and Privacy Concerns

St. Clair’s announcement has reopened questions about the role of the media in covering the personal lives of public figures, especially when it comes to children. In her post, she spoke about the importance of privacy and called on the media not to report invasively.

“Journalists should not be off the kids,” she wrote in a follow-up tweet. “Will be spending time with my family and logging off for a bit”.

Many of her supporters, the conservative commentator Candice Owens among them, echoed this sentiment, writing, “Children should always be off-limits. Journalists are parasites”.

Although St. Clair’s revelation made waves, Elon Musk has not yet confirmed or denied the claim. But he did respond to a fan’s joke about him parenting another child with a laughing emoji, leaving the public to judge who was telling the truth.

St. Clair’s Manhattan apartment building neighbors have stoked the rumors. They pointed out that she had been among the first people in the building to get a Cybertruck, Musk’s electric pickup truck, and that she had bolstered her security in recent months.

The Bigger Picture

The revelation about Ashley St. Clair is not just another celebrity gossip tale. It underscores the difficulty of retaining privacy in the era of social media and nonstop news cycles. It also raises questions about the responsibilities of public figures and the media in safeguarding children’s privacy.

For Elon Musk, the news adds another twist to an already complicated home life. If true, Musk makes news not only for his livelihood but also for his newly expanded family as a father of 13.

Conclusion

Of all the speculation that followed Ashley St. Clair’s announcement this week that she was the mother of Elon Musk’s 13th child, there was one question that was not on everyone’s lips. The veracity of her allegation has not yet been confirmed, but the story highlights the need for privacy and the media's ethical obligations in this space.

As the world waits to see how this story plays out, it’s clear that the lives of public figures and their families will forever be on public view. But as St. Clair has pointed out, children have a right to grow up under safe and normal circumstances, free of scrutiny from the media.

For now—all of this is so new—Ashley St. Clair has decided to sit it out and focus on family and her child’s future. Whether this story will slink off or continue to dominate the news is yet to be determined.
