A right-wing social media star has claimed she secretly gave birth to Elon Musk's latest child five months ago. Ashley St Clair, 31, made the bombshell announcement on Twitter before declaring she would log off the platform - where she and the Tesla billionaire follow each other. The controversial influencer is known for her anti-immigration stance and has previously called for New York to "join Texas in the civil war".
She tweeted: “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. “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.”.
Mr Musk has not acknowledged the claims or made any reference despite firing off dozens of tweets on Friday. His other kids were fathered by Shivon Zilis and Grimes. She broke a year long Instagram fast to post a picture of herself at the inauguration ceremony, tweeted: “In all sincerity, appreciate the kind words. Wish I did not feel the need to make a statement. Kids should be off limits for journalists.
