Elon Musk Questions Paternity Amid $2.5M Child Support for Ashley St. Clair

Elon Musk publicly addressed claims from Ashley St. Clair, a conservative influencer who alleges he is the father of her child. Musk stated he has provided St. Clair with $2.5 million and an annual payment of $500,000, although he remains uncertain about paternity, saying, "I don’t know if the child is mine or not, but am not against finding out." St. Clair has claimed that Musk reduced her child support payments by 60%, prompting her to sell her $100,000 Tesla to make ends meet. She accused Musk of being vindictive and controlling, alleging that he has had minimal involvement in their child's life. Musk has not publicly acknowledged the child but responded to online criticisms regarding the situation. St. Clair expressed frustration over Musk's lack of consistent communication and support since mid-February, coinciding with her public claims about their son.
