A shocking new exposé from The Wall Street Journal alleged that Elon Musk, billionaire tech mogul and Trump administration insider, is attempting to quietly build a “legion” of offspring protected by secret settlements and NDAs while using his social media influence on X to approach influencers he hopes will have his children.
The sprawling, 6,000-word article published Tuesday lays bare the tactics Musk allegedly employs to manage the mothers of his many children and his privacy, all while reshaping public policy and chasing a vision of human survival that veers into sci-fi territory.
The profile begins with a dive into Musk’s entanglement with Ashley St. Clair, a 26-year-old right-wing influencer and former Babylon Bee staffer, who claims to be the mother of one of his children after what began as a social media flirtation.
According to the Journal report, Musk told St. Clair during her pregnancy that they would need to have more children to “reach legion-level before the apocalypse” and floated the idea of using surrogates to produce them faster.
At the same time, Musk reportedly offered St. Clair a one-time payment of $15 million and $100,000 a month in support — on the condition that she stay silent about the child and their relationship.
After her baby was born, when she requested a paternity test, the Journal reports she was directed to Musk’s longtime fixer Jared Birchall.
During a two-hour phone call in December, Birchall described Musk as a “very big-hearted, kind and generous person,” but warned St. Clair that going through legal channels “always, always leads to a worse outcome for that woman.” He added that Musk wasn’t yet convinced the child was his.
“I don’t want my son to feel like he’s a secret,” St. Clair reportedly replied.
Birchall reportedly warned St. Clair that “to not sign some agreement associated with handing over 15-plus million dollars is absolutely insane and irresponsible,” adding that they’ve dealt with “some very unstable, mentally unstable, people.”
When she didn’t sign the NDA, the payments were reportedly slashed, and eventually cut again to $20,000 a month. According to St. Clair’s attorney, the “money is being weaponized.”
The Journal report also revealed that on Friday, a paternity test returned Musk’s “Probability of Paternity” at 99.9999%.
In another bizarre episode reported by the Journal, Musk allegedly used his social media platform to approach cryptocurrency influencer Tiffany Fong.
The report said Musk sent Fong a direct message asking if she wanted to have his baby — despite never having met her in person. Fong confided in friends about the advance, and once Musk found out, he unfollowed her, and her X earnings reportedly nosedived. At the peak of Musk’s engagement with her posting, she apparently raked in $21,000 over a two-week stretch on his platform.
Musk, according to the Journal, commonly refers to his ever-expanding brood as a “legion” and has been seeking to recruit new mothers via his platform X. Musk has had at least 14 children with four women, including the musician Grimes, but multiple sources told the Journal they believe Musk has fathered many more.
