'End unwarranted speculation': Author Ashley St Clair asks Elon Musk to acknowledge his 13th child

A call for Tesla chief Elon Musk to "end unwarranted speculation" and acknowledge his 13th child has brought him in the news again with author Ashley St Clair asking the richest man in the world to 'fulfill their agreement'.

“Ashley and Musk have been privately working towards the creation of an agreement about raising their child for some time," her representative Brian Glicklich said.

This comes after the author took to X yesterday and declared that she birthed Elon Musk's child five months ago.

"I have not previously disclosed this to protect our child’s privacy and safety, but in recent days it has become clear that tabloid media intends to do so, regardless of the harm it will cause. I intend to allow our child to grow in a normal and safe environment. For that reason, I ask that the media honor our child’s privacy, and refrain from invasive reporting,” she wrote.

In his statement, Glicklich said that they are waiting for Musk to acknowledge "his parental role with Ashley" and that Ashley has faith that the X CEO will live up to their agreement.

Meanwhile, an X user recently shared a screengrab of a five-year-old post seemingly from Ashley that read: “I need it to get Elon Musk's attention for a marriage proposal”.

“Ashley St Clair plotted for half a decade to ensnare Elon Musk," Milo wrote to which Musk responded with a "Woah".

Ashley reportedly replied to his comment reiterating that she had been trying to reach him for the past several days.

"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?" she wrote in her comment that now appears to be deleted.

In her recent post on X, the author signed off saying that she will be spending time with her family as she wished that she did not have the need to make statement. "Kids should be off limits for journalists," she wrote.

If Musk acknowledges this child, it would make him a father to thirteen children. He had six kids with his ex-wife, however, their firstborn passed away as an infant. He then had three children with musician Grimes and three more with tech executive Shivon Zilis.
