Tesla CEO Elon Musk has broken his silence on social media influencer Ashley St. Clair’s claim that he is the father of her five-month-old baby. Musk responded to the news by writing “Whoa” on social media platform X.Elon’s response came in response to a post that said Ashley St. Clair, 26, had been planning to become his baby for years.
Ashley St. Clair announced on Friday that Elon Musk is the father of her child. “Five months ago, I gave birth to a new baby. Elon Musk is the father,” she wrote, along with the Latin phrase “Alea iacta est” (the decision has been made).She said kept the information secret for her child’s safety, but when she learned that the media was going to break the news, she decided to announce it herself.
“I had previously kept this information secret for my child’s privacy and safety, but in recent days it has become clear that the media intends to bring this news to light in any way, no matter how damaging it may be,” she said.
After Musk’s brief response, Ashley St. Clair accused him of fueling online speculation and demanded that he speak to her directly.”Elon, we have been trying to contact you for the past several days, but you have not responded. When will you speak to us instead of responding to allegations from someone who is sharing photos of me as a 15-year-old?” she wrote in a since-deleted post.
Her spokesperson, Brian Glicklich, later confirmed that Ashley and Musk were privately working on a co-parenting agreement.
“We are waiting for Elon Musk to publicly acknowledge his parental responsibilities to end unnecessary speculation,” he said. Ashley believes Elon intends to complete this agreement as soon as possible, which is necessary for the well-being and safety of their child.”
In another since-deleted post, Ashley St. Clair alleged that Elon Musk responded to a social media user who allegedly shared inappropriate photos of her taken when she was a minor.
According to People Magazine, she claimed that XK’s safety team had temporarily suspended the account for sharing non-consensual photos. According to screenshots she shared, XK’s security manager confirmed that the account had been suspended for a week for violating the platform’s rules.
While Ashley St. Clair also claimed that Elon Musk recently asked her to have more children, but now she is more interested in speculation than talking to him directly.
