Elon Musk has responded to claims that he cut child support payments for conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair, who alleges she gave birth to his 13th child.
In a video published by the Daily Mail on March 31, St. Clair was seen returning her $100,000 Tesla outside her Manhattan apartment, telling a reporter she needed to offset a “60 percent cut” in support payments from Musk.
When asked if she believed the billionaire was acting vindictively, she suggested it was a pattern with him. “That’s his modus operandi when women speak out,” she said. “You can check the stocks—I’m not the only one cleaning up after his messes.”

Shortly after, Musk addressed the situation on X (formerly Twitter), stating he was unsure if the child was his but was open to confirming paternity.
“I don’t know if the child is mine or not, but am not against finding out,” the 53-year-old wrote. “No court order is needed.”
While Musk did not comment on reducing payments, he insisted he was still providing financial support. “Despite not knowing for sure,” he added, “I have given Ashley $2.5M and am sending her $500k per year.”
