Leaked text messages from Tesla overlord Elon Musk and the woman who claimed to be the mother of his 13th child have been revealed, adding multiple twists and turns to this bizarre story.
Last week, 26-year-old conservative political influencer Ashley St. Clair claimed that the 53-year-old billionaire was the father of a child she gave birth to in secret in September 2023.
After speaking publicly about the alleged paternity of her child on X (formerly Twitter) on February 15, she filed a paternity suit against Musk in which she sought full custody of her five-month-old son and a formal declaration that Musk is the child’s father.
After St. Clair’s baby daddy claims, another conservative influencer came out of the woodwork to allege that St. Clair had been trying to “baby-trap” musk all along.
MAGA-enthusiast Isabella Moody shared alleged texts between her and St. Clair which referenced the billionaire.
“I wasn’t going to post these but now that Ashley St. Clair has leaked her private signal messages with Elon Musk after lying and saying she ‘wanted privacy’, here’s more evidence Ashley planned to baby trap Elon,” she wrote on X.
In the messages shared by Moody, St. Clair appears to ask Moody for help coming up with a “cation to seduce Elon” and tells her that she “needs his rocket babies”.
In response to these texts, Musk simply replied “Whoa!” on X.
It seems that “Whoa!” is his only response to the baby-daddy debacle after he responded with the same phrase after an X user suggested that St. Clair plotted for “half a decade” to seduce Musk.
St. Clair was seemingly pissed by this comment and fired back minutes later.
“Elon, we have been trying to communicate for the past several days and you have not responded,” she wrote.
“When are you going to reply to us instead of publicly responding to smears from an individual who just posted photos of me in underwear at 15 years old?”
In the legal action filed by St. Clair, she claimed that she conceived the child with Musk in January 2024. Although he was not present at the child’s birth, St. Clair claims he has met the child three times and he “acknowledged parentage of the child in various written correspondences”.
The court filings include a series of text exchanges between St. Clair and Musk regarding their child. One of the exchanges St. Clair sent a picture of herself, to which Musk responded, “I want to knock you up again”.
In another exchange, when St. Clair asks to meet up with Musk.
“Hmm ok,” Musk replied. “Well, we do have a legion of kids to make.”
Musk has fathered 12 children since 2002. While his firstborn died of sudden infant death syndrome at 10 weeks, he went on to have five children with his ex-wife Justin Wilson, three children with Grimes and three kids with Shivon Zilis.
He was previously embroiled in a paternity legal battle in 2020 when Grimes alleged that he refused to let her see one of their children. Although the dispute ended in November 2024, Grimes recently took to X to plead with Musk to respond to issues regarding their child.
Elon Musk is yet to comment publicly on the paternity of Ashley St. Clair’s child, or directly comment on her claims.
