Mon Feb 24 11:40:00 UTC 2025: ## Elon Musk Facing Paternity and Custody Suit from Ashley St. Clair
**New York, NY** – Ashley St. Clair, a 26-year-old author, has filed a paternity petition and a request for sole legal custody of her infant son, R.S.C., whom she claims is fathered by Elon Musk. The filing, submitted to the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, on February 21st, includes alleged text message exchanges between St. Clair and Musk that appear to confirm a romantic relationship and the birth of the child in September 2024.
According to the legal documents, the messages show Musk acknowledging the relationship and expressing a desire to have more children with St. Clair. One alleged message from Musk reads, “Well, we do have a legion of kids to make,” while another, sent three months prior to the custody petition, allegedly stated, “I want to knock you up again.”
St. Clair alleges that Musk has seen their son only three times since his birth: twice in September 2024 and once for 30 minutes on November 30th, 2024. She further claims Musk was not present at the birth and has not been involved in the child’s care. The petition seeks a declaration of paternity, child support, and sole legal custody.
St. Clair’s representative stated that she attempted to resolve the matter privately before filing the suit. Musk’s representatives have not yet commented on the allegations. This latest development adds another layer to Musk’s complex family life; he reportedly has thirteen children with four different women.
