A Shocking Offer from the Tech Tycoon

In a jaw-dropping revelation, Ashley St. Clair, the mother of one of Elon Musk’s 14 known children, has disclosed that the billionaire proposed a staggering $15 million, alongside a monthly stipend of $100,000, to keep their child’s existence under wraps.

A Quick Romance Turns Complicated

The story unfolded when the right-wing author and social media personality became pregnant by Musk, giving birth to their son, Romulus, in September 2024. The couple initially crossed paths at Musk’s X offices in San Francisco in 2023, igniting a brief romantic affair.

Undisclosed Agreement and Birth Certificate Secrets

During St. Clair’s pregnancy, Musk generously transferred $2 million to her as a loan intended to cover her expenses. To minimize public visibility, she largely stayed indoors. When it came time to deliver their son, Musk’s representatives advised her to keep his name off the birth certificate, a stipulation that raised her eyebrows, particularly since she had already sought legal counsel.

The Price of Silence: A Deal Too Risky?

St. Clair was asked to sign documents ensuring Musk's anonymity and maintaining the secrecy of their relationship, in exchange for substantial financial support. Musk asserted that revealing his identity could jeopardize their child's safety, alluding to his prominent position in the Trump administration. He even claimed to be a target for assassination.

Refusal to Sign: A Mother's Concerns

Despite the tempting offer, St. Clair ultimately declined, fearing it would make Romulus feel "illegitimate" and lacked safety nets like a trust fund or life insurance for the child. St. Clair was adamant about obtaining a paternity test, a legal requirement for establishing child support in New York.

The Unbalanced Agreement

The proposed agreement also imposed restrictions on St. Clair, forbidding her from speaking negatively about Musk, while allowing him to express unfavorable opinions about her without consequences. Should she violate the terms, she would be responsible for repaying the $15 million.

Time to Go Public: St. Clair Takes a Stand

After attempts to negotiate with Musk hit a wall, St. Clair learned of a media blitz set to reveal their story. To preserve her and her child's privacy, she went public herself, announcing on social media, "Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father.”

Legal Battles and Payment Reductions

Days after her public announcement, Musk rescinded his $15 million offer, and amid ongoing legal conflicts, his monthly payment was halved from $100,000 to just $40,000. St. Clair has since reported that her legal fees have skyrocketed to about $250,000.

Establishing Paternity: The Court's Involvement

Following a court-ordered test, Musk was confirmed as the biological father. Currently, St. Clair has filed for sole custody of their son, and thus far, Musk has remained silent on the unfolding drama.
