Elon Musk has fathered a thirteenth child with 26-year-old conservative influencer, she announced on his social media site X on Friday night.
The alleged new mother, Ashley St Clair, 26, is a conservative firebrand who has previously courted controversy by fraternizing with the far right.
She announced the baby in a post on the evening of Valentine’s day.
‘Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father,’ she wrote.
‘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.’
Soon after the announcement, Musk penned a cryptic post to X in reply to a fan who said 'make another baby' was another 'side quest'. Musk reacted with crying laughing emoji.
DailyMail.com can reveal that St Clair moved about a year ago into a swanky Manhattan apartment near City Hall, costing an estimated $12,000 to $15,000 per month.
One resident of the exclusive condo tower, which has been home to VIPs including Fox anchor Jesse Watters and Bill Gates’ daughter, said St Clair was the first person he knew to get a Tesla Cybertruck – and he wondered how the young influencer afforded it.
Neighbors also said that St Clair was apparently living as a single mom, but has a full-time nanny looking after her two children: Musk’s alleged baby and a toddler from her previous relationship.
Musk has at least 12 other children with three women: Justine Wilson, Claire Elise Boucher AKA Grimes, and Shivon Zilis.

That’s great. But if she were some woman in the ‘hood, bearing children by multiple men, and didn’t have Elon Musk (and apparently someone else too), as her sugar daddy, and wasn’t on our side politically, everyone would have a different take on her.
Trump and Musk are unique individuals who are uniquely equipped to clean up the mess that government has become. I welcome others who out of real patriotism and common sense see how MAGA is necessary. I do hope, though, that once the job has been done and the dust settles, they have also provided the opportunity for traditional conservatism to take root. In the big picture, that is even more important than the housecleaning. Ideally, that would also mean a revival of traditional values, such as getting married and having children with the person you have married. Not every problem in this country can be blamed on the government. Many big problems are matters of the soul, and those have to be worked out between people and God . If MAGA has a role in that, maybe it is to encourage those endeavors and to stop government from working against them.
As a long-time sci-fi fan, I agree with your assessment. It would make a good premise for a fascinating story.
But it's scary to imagine someone putting those Heinleinesque concepts into actual practice.

Mike Pence has made himself irrelevant by his terrible judgment. He is an example of someone who thought his sanctimonious pretense was what life was about. A self proclaimed Christian who is in the process of losing it all.
He’s not so much a conservative. Rather a pretender who thinks he’s principled, with no self awareness. Rightfully so, very few listen to him or regard him as trustworthy.
This story gives FR’s resident Pharisees the opportunity to escape Saturday afternoon boredom, climb down from their obelisks and scold Musk. We are so lucky.
Re: 121 - good point. I doubt there’s few posters that would admit to that, however.
Define “repents”...Once you go to Christs and tell Him you know you’re a sinner and you wish you weren’t that way, ut want to accept Him as your Lord and Savior and get His forgiveness...it’s done - no need to keep going to a priest to re-confess your nature and do prayers with a rosary.
“Blessed are the poor in heart” refers to those who know they still have their sinful natures (which should be all of us) and regret it.
If Paul, who had met the risen Jesus, and been specially chosen to help carry The Word, could lament that he kept finding himself dong things he knew he shouldn’t, and not doing things he should; or Peter denying Jesus those 3 times, yet still remain special in the Lord’s heart then, we need to understand that once Jesus/God has forgiven us for our sinful natures, we are forgiven - the ONLY exception is to blaspheme the Holy Spirit...remember when folks decided being forgiven wasn’t enough and they reverted to trying to follow “The Law” to remain “worthy” - and they were rebuked for having fallen from Grace - not believing that their forgiveness was valid.
God knows we cannot rid ourselves of our sinful natures because He made us...else, He wouldn’t have stepped down to earth as Jesus to erase our sin penalty....something none of us could do for ourselves, with or without priests.
And don’t get me started on the “saints” - we should never pray to any mortal man - no matter what title others have laid upon them - once we have been saved, we are all saints in His eyes - warts and all.
“We should have a good talk about what conservatism is, because in FR the terms is slung about a lot, without much attempt at analysis.”
To me, Conservatism is adhering to the Constitution and its intents...it irks me when some here are OK with “bending it a little” because it “makes sense” to them....the Constitution contains no “noble cause” clauses - those who think it does are the reason we’re in the mess we’re in today.
Far too many here have been slowly worn down and brainwashed over the years without even realizing they have betrayed themselves by being “a bit more tolerant” to the PC crowd.
“To me, Conservatism is adhering to the Constitution and its intents.”
Seems kind of a narrow take. Conservatism is a philosophical position, or a series of philosophical structures, world views, attitudes, psychologies. There’s a severe limit to what you can think about within the constraints of the US constitution. Its not going to help you figure out the good, the true, and the beautiful.
A really good start on Conservatism 101 in an American context is “The Conservative Mind”, Russell Kirk

You can expand any topic into thousands of variables - for me, I’ll accept adherence to the Constitution and its intents...anything extra is jest lagniappe - and more likely of one adheres to the Constitution and its intents.
Those who demand everyone strikes their own personal moral “balance”, eventually becomes like the progressive liberals” in that they’ll never be satisfied until they end up demanding/forcing others to be just like them - which, no matter how moral/ethical “good”, becomes its own form of fascism.
