Elon Musk has allegedly welcomed his 13th child, according to claims from author Ashley St Clair.
Last week (Friday 14 Feb), right-wing influencer Ashley St Clair came forward alleging to have given birth to the billionaire's 13th child five months ago.
"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 safety, but in recent days it has become clear that tabloid media intends to do so, regardless of the harm it will cause," she wrote on Twitter at the time.
"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."

And in a subsequent interview with the New York Post, St Clair further claimed she was asked by Musk's team to keep her baby a 'secret forever'.
The author's representative, Brian Glicklich, also shared his own statement claiming the two 'have been privately working towards the creation of an agreement about raising their child for some time', and the recent 'ambushing' of St Clair by a 'tabloid journalist' was allegedly making it 'impossible to complete that process confidentially'.
Musk has yet to address these claims officially, however, he did respond to the allegations on Twitter when right-wing activist Milo Yiannopoulos alleged St Clair had planned to 'ensnare' Musk, to which he replied: 'Whoa."
This weekend (15 Feb), the CEO's estranged daughter, Vivian Wilson, has fired shots at her tech-boss dad for having had to find out about her supposed new sibling on social media.
In a TikTok shared the following day (15 Feb), she claimed that she only discovered the existence of her alleged new sibling through Reddit.
"Wow, if I had a nickel for every time I found out I had half-siblings through Reddit, I’d have two nickels … which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it’s happened twice, right," Vivian said.
For those in need of a reminder, 53-year-old Musk confirmed last summer that he'd welcomed his 12th child with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis - with whom he already shares twins Strider and Azure, born in 2021.
With former flame, Canadian musician Grimes, he also shares sons X Æ A-Xii (nicknamed 'X'), Techno Mechanicus (nicknamed 'Tau') and daughter Exa Dark Sideræl (known as 'Y').
Musk also has six children with ex-wife Justine Wilson - twins Griffin and Vivian, triplets Kai, Saxon and Damian, and his firstborn child Nevada Alexander, who died in 2002.
In another video posted to her account later, she explained that, in 2022 - whilst she and former step-mum Grimes 'weren't talking' but 'weren't on bad terms' - a former RuPaul's Drag Race star revealed on Reddit that the singer had given birth to another of Musk's children, her half-brother X.
A screengrab shared on Vivian's latest upload sees season two contestant Tatianna tweeting, 'Not grimes poppin out another axolotl'.
"I had no idea of this at the time," she hit out. "Because no one thought to let me know, so at the moment, I'm just in complete shock and I don't believe it.
"So, I double-check it on the news, and it turns out, it's actually f*****g true and I'm just the last one to find out about it."
Tyla has contacted Elon Musk for comment.
