Overview

• Ashley St. Clair has filed legal petitions in Manhattan court to establish Elon Musk as the father of her six-month-old son and to secure sole custody.
• St. Clair alleges that Musk has met the child only three times since his birth in September 2024 and has shown little interest in his care or upbringing.
• Court documents include text messages where Musk reportedly acknowledged the child, expressed concerns about security risks, and mentioned having more children with St. Clair.
• St. Clair has requested genetic testing to confirm paternity after private attempts to resolve the matter with Musk’s representatives failed.
• This legal battle adds to Musk's ongoing custody disputes, including recent public pleas from musician Grimes regarding their children’s medical needs.
