‘Elon Musk is the father’: Author claims she had a baby with world’s richest man

California: Author Ashley St. Clair took to X to make a bombshell claim that five months ago she gave birth to Elon Musk’s baby. Her post is quickly gaining traction, with people sharing varied remarks – from congratulating her to talking about the world’s richest man.

She shared a short caption in Latin; the phrase, when translated to English, means “the die is cast (thrown).” St. Clair shared her claim in a note, requesting everyone to honour the child’s privacy.

“Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father. I have not previously disclosed this to protect our child’s privacy and safety, but in recent days it has become clear that tabloid media intends to do so, regardless of the harm it will cause,” she wrote.

“I intend to allow our child to grow in a normal and safe environment. For that reason, I ask that the media honor our child’s privacy, and refrain from invasive reporting,” she added.

According to People, Elon Musk fathered 12 children with different women over the span of 20 years. He first became a father in 2002 when he and his ex-wife, Canadian author Justine Wilson, welcomed their son Nevada Alexander. Tragically, the baby passed away when he was 10 weeks old.
