Key Information
Following St. Clair’s announcement, Musk, known for his active presence on X, posted numerous times but did not specifically address her statement. However, he did respond with a laughing emoji to a user’s joke about him potentially taking on “side quests” like having another baby while managing various ventures including his ownership of Twitter.
In her evening post, St. Clair explained that she initially withheld Musk’s identity as the alleged father to safeguard her child’s privacy, but felt compelled to share this information because “tabloid media” was preparing to report on it.
Several conservative figures, including Candace Owens and former Representative Matt Gaetz, offered their congratulations to St. Clair on X.
Forbes has reached out for a comment from Musk.
About Ashley St. Clair
Ashley St. Clair, who is reported to be 31 years old, is a recognized conservative activist and author with over 1.1 million followers on X. She gained prominence through her children’s book titled “Elephants Are Not Birds,” released by faith-based publisher BRAVE Books. The story revolves around an elephant who discovers that he is not a bird, despite societal pressures insisting otherwise. St. Clair has described her work as a “bold challenge” to the idea of “transgender acceptance.”
Elon Musk’s Children
If St. Clair’s claims are substantiated, this would mark Musk’s 13th child, and he would have children with four different women. Musk shares six children with his first wife, Justine Wilson, including a son born in 2002 who tragically passed away from sudden infant death syndrome. Together, they also welcomed twins Griffin and Vivian Jenna Wilson in 2004 and triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian Musk in 2006. Vivian, a transgender woman, has publicly challenged Musk over his views on the transgender community. Earlier this year, Musk controversially stated that Vivian was “dead, killed by the woke mind virus.” In reaction, Vivian accused Musk of being insensitive and harsh during her upbringing. Musk has three children with musician Grimes, whose birth names are X Æ A-Xii (2020), Exa Dark Sideræl (2021), and Techno Mechanicus (2022). He also shares twins Strider and Azure Musk, born in 2021 with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis, alongside an unnamed child born via surrogacy in 2024.
Recent Events
Recently, Musk’s first son with Grimes, X Æ A-Xii, drew media attention when Musk brought him to the Oval Office during a meeting with President Donald Trump. Trump referred to the child as a “high-IQ individual.” During the press event, X was seen engaging with his father and Trump, leading to scrutiny from Grimes, who criticized Musk for exposing their son to public life too soon.
