Elon Musk and Ashley St. Clair, the mother of his alleged 13th child
Billionaire Elon Musk sparked buzz on social media this week with a post about Genghis Khan, just days after MAGA influencer Ashley St. Clair claimed he fathered his 13th child with her, as per a report.

Elon Musk's growing comparisons to Genghis Khan

Musk wrote in an X post, "For some reason, I find the history of Genghis Khan particularly interesting," a comment that soon attracted the attention of fans who had recently compared the Tesla and SpaceX CEO to the notorious Mongol warlord, reported New York Post.

According to the report, Genghis Khan, the 12th-century ruler, is claimed to have fathered hundreds of children during his reign, and Musk's expanding family has led to him being nicknamed a "modern-day Genghis Khan."


The comparisons grew more heated after 26-year-old St. Clair claimed that she has a five-month-old son with Musk, as per the report.

Ashley St. Clair's public reveal

The author and influencer went public with the claim in an X post last week, saying that she had kept the baby's identity hidden for the safety of their family but was forced to go public because of increasing media scrutiny, reported New York Post.

She said “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,” as quoted in the report.

How their supposed romance began

St. Clair shared that their romance started with an interaction on X in May 2023. She said "he slid into my DM’s. I think it was a meme,” as quoted by New York Post.

Pregnancy secret

The influencer also alleged that she was coerced into concealing the pregnancy. She claimed, “I was told to keep it secret. I was being asked to keep it a secret forever,” as quoted in the report.
