On Friday (February 14), Ashley St. Clair - a 26-year-old influencer and writer - took to X to claim that she and the 53-year-old billionaire share a child.

In the statement, St. Clair explained that she had no intention of making this information public but felt pressure from the media to do so.

"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," her announcement read.

"I intend to allow our child to grow in a normal and safe environment," St. Clair said. "For that reason, I ask that the media honor our child's privacy and refrain from invasive reporting."

Her post was captioned with the Latin phrase, "Alea Iacta Est," which means: "The die is cast."
