The news about Ashley St. Clair
In 2025, on February 14, Ashley St. Clair told X that she and Elon Musk, 53, had a child together five months before. According to St. Clair’s post, she wanted to protect the child’s privacy and safety by saying, “I intend to allow our child to grow in a normal and safe environment.” She told the reporters to be polite and not report on them in a way that invaded their privacy.
Along with her announcement, the Latin phrase “Alea Iacta Est,” which means “The die is cast,” was used to show that a big choice had been made and could not be changed.
That Ashley St. Clair?

Elon Musk’s Family Is Growing
Elon Musk, the famous businessman who started Tesla and SpaceX, has years of experience with big families. After adding St. Clair’s child, Musk now has 13 kids of his own. He became a parent for the first time in 2002, when he and his ex-wife, the Canadian author Justine Wilson, had their first boy, Nevada Alexander. Sadly, he died at 10 weeks old. Five more children were born after that: twins Vivian and Griffin, who are now 20; and triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian, who are now 18.
The singer Grimes and Musk revealed in 2020 that their first child, X Æ A-12, had been born. They went on to have two more children, Exa Dark Siderael, 3, and Techno Mechanicus. Also, Musk had twins, Strider and Azure, with Shivon Zilis, an executive at Neuralink, without telling anyone. Zilis and Musk had their youngest child in early 2024, but they haven’t said what the name is yet.

Others have questioned the timing and motives behind the reveal, while others have praised her for putting her child’s privacy first.
