The private life of Elon Musk is again set to be splashed across the front page, as he's teased a wild move against the mother of his alleged 13th child.
While the world's richest man is notoriously secretive about his love life, his relationships with his children and their mothers are a constant source of intrigue.
Away from Vivian Wilson saying that her father claimed she'd 'died' when she transitioned, we've had Grimes make a public plea for Elon Musk to get in touch with her about one of their children, and he's been accused of parading Lil X around the White House.
Things took an unexpected turn when MAGA influencer Ashley St. Clair claimed she'd secretly given birth to Musk's son, laying out a stream of evidence to back up her story.

The Wall Street Journal confirmed that a report from Labcorp suggested that Musk's "probability of paternity" was 99.9999%, although St. Clair later applied for full custody amid a court filing that said he'd "met [Romulus] only three (3) times and has had no involvement in his care and upbringing."
Despite St. Clair making a series of sensationalist claims that Musk wasn't supporting her and Romulus financially, things seemed to largely blow over. She's since been dragged back into the spotlight over the recent Grok scandal, and in the latest bizarre turn, it seems St. Clair has denounced some of her MAGA ways.
Going on a recent rampage against X, St. Clair said she feels 'immense guilt' in her role promoting right-wing views, including that of transphobia. Saying that she understands her change of stance might come across in the wrong way, St. Clair explained: "I also haven’t said much on this bc I have gone back and forth over whether my voice would be helpful on the issue since it will be framed as disingenuous or just turning bc I’m ‘scorned.’
“Even this reply will become right wing hysteria but yeah I am sorry. Let me know how I can help."
I will be filing for full custody today, given her statements implying she might transition a one-year-old boy

This quickly fell on the radar of Musk when someone shared St. Clair's comments and said she was exposing her son to 'trans grooming'. The tech billionaire wasted no time in making his stance clear, replying underneath: "I will be filing for full custody today, given her statements implying she might transition a one-year-old boy."
While Musk says that St. Clair implies she'll transition Romulus, there's no mention of this in any of her posts.
She's remained active on X and continued calling it out while maintaining that she's been banned from its paid-for X Premium subscription.
Musk hasn't mentioned the situation since, but given that he's continuously online, we don't imagine it'll be long until he reveals whether he's serious about fighting for sole custody.
With almost all of the money in the world, Mr. Musk can afford some pretty fancy lawyers.
