Overview

  • Musk allegedly offered Ashley St. Clair $15 million and $100,000 monthly in exchange for keeping their child, born in September 2024, a secret, which she declined.
  • A paternity test reportedly confirmed Musk as the father with 99.9999% probability, though he initially questioned the child's paternity publicly.
  • After St. Clair went public in February, Musk cut financial support from $100,000 to $20,000 per month, leading to ongoing legal disputes over custody and paternity recognition.
  • The report also details Musk's pronatalist vision, including plans to use surrogates and recruit mothers via his social media platform X to accelerate his goal of fathering more children.
  • Musk's fixer, Jared Birchall, allegedly orchestrated confidentiality agreements and financial deals to manage relationships with mothers, as part of a broader effort to maintain privacy and control.
