Ashley St Clair, a 26-year-old social media influencer, has made the news after alleging that she had given birth to the cbild of Elon Musk and has since filed a paternity suit against the billionaire business magnate. Although Musk has not confirmed nor denied the allegation, he recently responded to tweets making reference to the claims.
The drama escalated further after influencer Isabella Moody accused St Clair of intentionally plotting to “baby trap” Musk. On X, Moody claimed that Ashley St Clair had plotted beforehand and posted private text messages as alleged evidence.
I wasn’t going to share these, but since @stclairashley leaked her own private Signal chats with @elonmusk after lying and stating she ‘wanted privacy,’ here’s more proof Ashley was going to baby trap Elon,” Moody added.
I agree with @LauraLoomer.
I wasn’t going to post these, but now that @stclairashley has leaked her private signal messages with @elonmusk after lying and saying she “wanted privacy”, here’s more evidence Ashely planned to baby trap Elon.
She sent me these text messages in May… https://t.co/rfRoXvvNmD pic.twitter.com/GuljKWdy0r

She also posted screenshots of a May 2023 conversation, where St Clair supposedly wrote, “I need his rocket babies” and “I need a caption to seduce Elon Musk.” Musk responded to the post with, “Whoa.”
Whoa!

Paternity Lawsuit Filed Against Musk
St Clair filed two Manhattan Supreme Court lawsuits against Elon Musk, wanting to legally certify him as her child’s father. St Clair has been shown in reports provided by the New York Post claiming to have previously boasted about keeping Musk “wrapped around her finger” and reputedly saying she could control his social media status, even commanding him to “retweet anything.”
One of the sources close to St Clair, who knew her since 2017, explained to New York Post that she supposedly kept friends at arm’s length to get closer to Musk with the goal to be his “permanent side piece.”
“You could never really trust her because you may not be doing what she could monetize or what she could sensationalize to make her own star shine,” the source alleged.
The insider also indicated that St Clair has always pursued financial security via celebrity relationships. “She’s always sort of wanted to be a kept woman, as far as I can see—she was always pursuing that,” they continued.
Queries about St Clair’s Motivations
The same source queried St Clair’s ideological bent, observing that she does not necessarily sit in conservative convictions but is being driven by what suits her pockets. “Movements are never about one person. She just sort of went along with it. I do not know whether she is even grounded in a conservative kind of philosophy. I believe it’s just what profited her.
With court proceedings already in motion, everyone waits with bated breath for Musk’s next step and if the paternity claims will be proved in court. The CEO of Tesla and SpaceX has yet to issue a public statement regarding the issue.
