Ashley St. Clair and Elon Musk: The Baby, the Tweets, and the NDA That Couldn’t Hold

February 15, 2025

Elon Musk is a man of many things: billionaire, CEO, rocket enthusiast, meme dealer, and—if Ashley St. Clair’s recent revelation is accurate—a father for the 13th time. That’s right, according to the conservative influencer, Musk has quietly expanded his ever-growing family tree, though he’s been about as communicative about it as one of his Starlink satellites floating through the void.

Let’s break down how one tweet, one "Whoa," and one alleged non-disclosure agreement have created the latest tech-meets-tabloid scandal.

A Tweet That Launched a Thousand Theories

Ashley St. Clair took to X (formerly Twitter, but still full of chaos) to drop a bombshell: five months ago, she gave birth to Elon Musk’s 13th child. If you thought Maury was the peak of paternity reveals, you clearly haven’t seen Musk’s mentions lately.

St. Clair claimed she’d been keeping this under wraps for privacy and security reasons but had no choice but to go public after tabloids sniffed out the story like a Tesla Autopilot locking onto a lane change.

Naturally, the internet exploded with speculation. Some were stunned. Some believed it instantly. Others treated it like a potential plotline for the next season of Succession.

Musk himself? He responded with a single word:

"Whoa."

And just like that, a billionaire who builds Mars-bound spaceships and posts memes for a living somehow managed to make himself look unprepared.

So... What’s the Deal?

According to St. Clair, the two were involved in a secretive relationship that came with an NDA stronger than a Tesla Cybertruck’s windows (pre-rock-throwing incident). She claims Musk was fully aware of the pregnancy but wanted it to remain confidential for “safety reasons.”

That’s not entirely shocking, considering Musk has spent the past few years treating population decline like his personal side quest. The man has publicly advocated for people to have more kids, so in theory, this should have been a PR win for him.

Except, apparently, Musk won’t even return her calls.

St. Clair took issue with his one-word response, replying, "You have not responded to my private communications, but you have the time to tweet 'Whoa'?"

Oof. This isn’t just baby mama drama, this is corporate-level ghosting.

Life in the Shadows

While some might imagine being the secret mother of Elon Musk’s child as a life of luxury, St. Clair says it was more like an episode of Big Brother, minus the elimination rounds.

She claims she was kept in an undisclosed, high-security residence with private security—which sounds great if you’re starring in a spy thriller, but not ideal when you’re dealing with pregnancy cravings and no one to send out for pickles and ice cream.

She describes the isolation as mentally exhausting, noting that while Musk is out launching rockets and making flame-throwers, she was essentially on maternity leave from public life.

At this point, it’s unclear whether she was a willing participant in this arrangement or if she had concerns but felt obligated to go along with it. Either way, the walls of secrecy came crumbling down the second the tabloids started knocking.

Enter: The Legal Drama

With the news officially out, lawyers have entered the chat.

St. Clair is demanding Musk formally acknowledge the child and work out a co-parenting plan. According to reports, private discussions had already started, but the leak of the story derailed any progress.

Now, the world gets to watch what should have been a private legal negotiation play out in real-time, because why settle things quietly when social media exists?

Surprise Siblings: Musk’s Family Just Keeps Growing

With 12 other children from multiple partners, Musk’s family reunions are starting to look like tech startup conventions.

His known children include five from his first marriage, several with musician Grimes, and a few others from his working relationship-turned-romantic partnership with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis.

Now, St. Clair’s baby enters the fold—and the Musk sibling group chat just got a little more crowded.

One of Musk’s estranged children, Vivian Wilson, reportedly found out about her new half-sibling the same way the rest of us did—through social media. She later posted on TikTok about the surreal experience of learning about new family members via Reddit threads.

If that isn’t the most 2025 thing imaginable, I don’t know what is.

Elon’s Mission: Save Humanity, Ignore His DMs?

Musk has publicly spoken about wanting to “save humanity” by combating declining birth rates. If this situation is true, then congratulations, mission accomplished, I guess?

But that raises an even bigger question:

How do you save civilization if you can’t even answer a text from your latest baby’s mom?

Because for a guy who builds AI-powered cars that drive themselves, you’d think he’d have at least one self-driving relationship app installed.

Final Thoughts: The Next Episode of “Keeping Up With the Musks”

So where does this go next? Will Musk issue a full statement? Will this become a legal battle royale? Or will he just post another cryptic tweet and then pivot to talking about Dogecoin?

All we know is this story is far from over.

And with each new chapter, it’s starting to feel less like real life and more like a deleted scene from a sci-fi comedy.
