Ashley St. Clair is a conservative 26-year-old influencer, author, and columnist whose political views and a web presence built on controversy are widely familiar to everyone. She has made a pretty big name for herself with views on cultural and political matters, and most recently. Now, she is in the news claiming to have given birth in secret to a child with Tesla CEO Elon Musk.
Alleging to be the Mother of Musk’s 13th Child
“Elon Musk is the father.” She said she had kept this information confidential for the protection of her child, but she decided to come forward, worried that the truth was going to find its way into the press anyway.
Musk’s reply was cryptic, merely putting out a laughing emoji and remarking that “making another baby” was just another “side quest.” The vaguenesses left many to wonder if Musk was affirming or refuting St. Clair’s assertion.
A Conservative Firebrand
Ashley St. Clair gained her audience primarily due to her conservatism, which at times entails offering controversial statements regarding social issues. St. Clair has written an anti-woke children’s book, which she sells in conjunction with her denunciations of progressive ideologies, particularly regarding gender identity and social policy. In a 2021 interview with the New York Post, she expressed fears that current social narratives might affect children, stating, “I worry for my son. Is he going to be pressured to question his gender identity?”
Her public image easily belongs to the MAGA (Make America Great Again) brand, and she is an active participant in political discussion through social media. Her polarizing opinions get her a devoted fan base but invite disdain from other ideological sides.
A Luxurious Manhattan Lifestyle
A wealthy Manhattan flat is said to be St. Clair’s address, in the City Hall precinct, and her rent is believed to be within the range of $12,000-$15,000 monthly. She is said to have been a recluse for the most part, not socializing much with others in her block, as seen in a Daily Mail report. She has taken steps to strengthen security, positioning a camera by the entrance outside her flat though the building had high-end security already.
This way of life, wealthy as it is, has raised plenty of questions regarding her finances, with some positing that it is doubtful just how she is able to fund such a location. On social media, it would seem she monetizes herself from book sales, commercials, and online life.
The First Cybertruck Owner in Her Building
Yet another bit of information perpetuating the speculation about her relationship with Musk is that she was among the very first residents at her high-rise apartment complex to have a Tesla Cybertruck. This has precipitated some rumor-mongering about the state of her connection with Musk before her public pronouncement about their supposed child.
Interacting with Musk on Social Media
St. Clair had previously publicly interacted with Musk on X several times before making her announcement that she had given birth to Musk’s rumored child. Some of these interactions included relationship jokes, jokes about giving birth, and even jokes about “pulling out,” which many are now interpreting differently given her recent declaration.
Musk’s response to the accusation—after laughing—has been open to interpretation. For some, it has been interpreted as a veiled acknowledgment of the situation while others view it as a disclaimer. The burning question persists until Musk or St. Clair reveals some undeniable evidence.
Controversy and Public Perception
St. Clair’s statement now has most arguing about what truly should be argued: whether or not she is telling the truth. Some view it as a publicity stunt, due to her past of taking controversial stands and being politically entrenched. Others claim that the vagueness of Musk’s response suggests that her comment might have some basis in fact.
No matter if what she’s saying is accurate or not, one thing is straightforward: Ashley St. Clair has, again, made the headlines. Whether she is truly Musk’s co-parent of yet another child or merely media-baiting, St. Clair is coming onto the scene with more fame than ever before.
Conclusion
The accusation that she had given birth to the 13th child of Musk provides further controversy to her already highly publicized character. A notorious loudmouth of controversial conservative opinion and extravagant Manhattan lifestyle, she is still an eagerly contested subject in the press. Her flirtation with Musk, having purchased a Cybertruck, and high-profile activity on social media imply that she is carefully positioning herself within powerful networks.
However, on a larger agenda scale, tangible proof appears to be missing to support her allegations, thereby leaving the world polarized on whether she is lying or spinning another grand lie. Either way, Ashley St. Clair is a name that does not politely disappear from public discourse.
