Even though Elon Musk tends to keep the romantic side of his life something of a secret, the fact that the world's richest man has allegedly fathered 14 children to four different women means this was never going to remain hidden for long.
Away from his own daughter spilling the beans after he claimed she'd 'died', we've also seen Grimes make public pleas to her ex-husband, and a not-so-private paternity argument with Ashley St. Clair.
The former MAGA influencer has supposedly denounced her ways, and while some had heard of her before she spectacularly revealed she was the mother to Musk's 13th child, she's since been thrust into the limelight.
In 2026 alone, Elon Musk has said he'll be fighting for full custody of their child amid fears that St. Clair will 'trans' Romulus, while St. Clair was dragged into the recent Grok situation.

Musk's AI chatbot was accused of manipulating pictures of women and minors into NSFW situations, and although Grok has since apologized, officials confirmed it was used to create 'criminal imagery' of children between the ages of 11 and 13. Countries like the United Kingdom have said this could be the final straw that leads to X being banned, whereas St. Clair teased further action when she referred to edited pictures of her as 'illegal'.
Aside from photographs of St. Clair being manipulated without her consent, the fact that they appeared to include a 14-year-old version of her has only added to the controversy.
The BBC reports that a January 2026 lawsuit maintains that xAI's Grok created 'sexually explicit' images of St. Clair.
St Clair's lawyer, Carrie Goldberg, told the outlet: "We intend to hold Grok accountable and to help establish clear legal boundaries for the entire public's benefit to prevent AI from being weaponised for abuse.
"By manufacturing nonconsensual sexually explicit images of girls and women, xAI is a public nuisance and a not reasonably safe product."

The filing says that users on X 'dug up' photographs of a fully clothed St. Clair at the age of 14 and asked Grok to undress her by putting her in a bikini. Grok supposedly obliged to the request.
After referring to the imagery as "de facto non-consensual," St Clair's team alleges that Grok's developers had "explicit knowledge" that she wouldn't consent.
Elsewhere, Grok apparently put the Jewish St. Clair "in a string bikini covered with swastikas."
The filing concludes that xAI "retaliated against her, demonetising her X account and generating multitudes more images of her.”
In response to the legal action, it's said that xAI has countersued St Clair for supposedly violating its terms of service by making the filing in New York.
xAI says that all proceedings must be brought forward in Texas, while Goldberg added that the counter-suit was 'jolting': "I have never heard of any defendant suing somebody for notifying them of their intention to use the legal system. And their mistreatment of her online is mimicked in their legal strategy."
St. Clair will be "vigorously defending" her case in New York, with it said that "any jurisdiction will recognise" her grievance.
