Tesla CEO Elon Musk has reportedly not reached out to conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair since she publicly claimed to have given birth to his 13th child, according to her PR representative.
The New York Post reports that St. Clair recently revealed she gave birth to Musk’s 13th child in 2024. However, her PR representative, Brian Glicklich, stated that Musk and his team have not attempted to contact her since her public announcement more than four days ago. A friend of St. Clair told the Post that Musk’s silence prior to her announcement left her feeling “jilted and terrified.”
St. Clair’s announcement has sparked widespread attention on social media, particularly on Musk’s platform, X, where she has faced a barrage of questions and criticism. Despite the intense scrutiny, Musk, known for his active presence on X, has remained silent on the matter. His only response so far has been a single-word reply—“whoa”—to a post claiming that St. Clair had tried to “ensnare” him for five years.
A photo from May 2023 has resurfaced, showing Musk and St. Clair together at an event. In the image, Musk appears to be looking at St. Clair as she hands him a fake “I.O.U.” for $44 billion on behalf of The Babylon Bee, the conservative satire site where she was employed at the time. Another photo from the same post shows Musk posing with the “I.O.U.” while wearing a black Doge meme T-shirt.
The resurfaced photo adds context to the story, confirming that Musk and St. Clair were acquainted before her claim of having his child. The Babylon Bee, which had been suspended from Twitter under its previous management, was reinstated by Musk after he acquired the platform in 2022.
As the situation unfolds, many are questioning why Musk has not addressed the issue or contacted St. Clair. Some speculate he may be awaiting legal advice or gathering more information before making a public statement. Others believe his silence could be a strategic move to avoid further fueling the controversy.
