Conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair has been forced to sell her Tesla after billionaire Elon Musk cut off her child support payments by 60% following her public revelation about their secret paternity. The mother of two young children, including a newborn son fathered by Musk, was spotted handing over the keys to her black Model S outside her Manhattan apartment on Saturday.
St. Clair, 26, claims that Musk’s behavior towards her has been ‘shocking and shameful’ as he allegedly retaliated against her for speaking out about their relationship. The Tesla CEO had previously provided financial support, but now only pays half the agreed-upon amount, leaving St. Clair struggling to make ends meet.
The situation escalated when St. Clair filed a custody case in February, seeking sole custody of both children and demanding that Musk take a paternity test. However, Musk’s lawyers successfully petitioned for the case to be sealed, limiting St. Clair’s ability to speak out about her claims.
St. Clair has been raising two young children on her own, with the help of a full-time nanny at her rented apartment in downtown Manhattan. The situation highlights Musk’s alleged lack of involvement in his children’s lives and his reluctance to take responsibility for them.
The case remains under seal, but court documents suggest that Musk has little involvement in his children’s care and upbringing. St. Clair claims that she was only present for short visits with her son after their birth, and that Musk has never shown any interest in meeting the child without her prompting.
As one close source to St. Clair stated, “The richest guy in the world, to treat a woman that he made a baby with this way, is shocking and shameful.” The situation raises questions about Musk’s commitment to his children and his responsibility as a father.
