Ashley St. Clair, a known conservative influencer and author of the popular children’s book, Elephants Are Not Birds, has come out to claim that Elon Musk is the biological father of her baby, whom she welcomed five months ago. The news has stirred much discussion on the internet, considering that Musk already has 12 children with his three former partners.
So, here’s everything you need to know regarding St. Clair’s recent announcement about the Tesla Motors CEO.
Ashley St. Clair releases statement about Elon Musk
On Saturday, February 15, the seasoned columnist took to social media to confirm the news about her baby’s parentage. Ashley St. Clair also provided the reason behind why it took her so long to share the said update.
Captioned, “Alea Iacta Est,” which translates to ‘The die is cast,’ the X (formerly Twitter) post read, “Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father. I have not previously disclosed this to protect our child’s privacy and security, but in recent days it has become clear that tabloid media intends to do so, regardless of the harm it will cause.”
Ashley St. Clair then pleaded with the media to understand her concern about her baby’s privacy. She added, “I intend to allow our child to grow in a normal and safe environment. For that reason, I ask the media honor our child’s privacy, and refrain from invasive reporting.”
Meanwhile, St. Clair’s representative, Brian Glicklich, also provided a separate update about her baby. He claimed that his client and Musk are “privately working towards the creation of an agreement about raising their child for some time.” Glicklich then urged the wealthiest individual in the world to issue a public statement regarding the situation. He noted, “We are waiting for Elon to publicly acknowledge his parental role with Ashley, to end unwarranted speculation.”
Despite Brian Glicklich’s comments and Ashley St. Clair’s surprise announcement, Elon Musk has yet to share any official word on what would be his thirteenth time being a father.
