Overview

• Ashley St. Clair has filed paternity and custody petitions in New York, asserting Elon Musk is the father of her 5-month-old son, referred to as R.S.C. in court documents.
• St. Clair claims Musk has only met the child three times since his birth in September 2024 and has been absent from his care and upbringing.
• The court filings include text messages allegedly from Musk, where he acknowledged the child and expressed interest in having more children, referring to a 'legion of kids to make.'
• Musk has responded to online allegations that St. Clair planned to 'baby-trap' him, calling the claims 'Woah' and 'Yikes,' but has not publicly addressed the paternity or custody lawsuit.
• This legal dispute follows public tensions with another mother of Musk's children, Grimes, who recently accused him of ignoring urgent medical issues involving one of their children.
