A woman named Ashley St. Clair recently shared that she had a baby five months ago, and the father is Elon Musk. She wanted to keep this private to protect her child, but some news outlets were going to share the story anyway. Ashley asked the media to respect her baby’s privacy and not bother them.
Elon Musk responded on social media by posting “Whoa” and shared a screenshot of a conversation. In it, someone named Greg Price said Musk already has a partner and kids, and Ashley replied that Musk has seven children and changes partners often.
Ashley’s spokesperson, Brian Glicklich, said Ashley and Musk have been working together to make a plan for raising the child privately. They were upset because a reporter kept bothering Ashley and her family, making it hard to keep things quiet. They hope Musk will soon confirm he is the father to stop rumors, and Ashley trusts they will finish their plan for the baby’s well-being.
Ashley said she and Musk were in a relationship around May 2023 and were together in early 2024. Their baby was born in September 2024. She said Musk wasn’t at the birth but has met the baby three times since then.
Ashley also shared that Musk wrote to her, confirming he is the father. She showed some text messages where Musk asked, “All well?” and she replied, “He is perfect.” Musk then said, “I look forward to seeing you and him this weekend.” In another text, Ashley sent a photo of herself and a friend, and Musk replied, “Hi cutie.” She responded, “Hi, see u soon.”
Ashley hopes everyone will let her child grow up safely and privately.
