Elon Musk allegedly cut ex Ashley St. Clair’s child support from $100,000 to $20,000 after she revealed their son
St. Clair alleged that after their son was born in September 2024, she was offered a lump sum of $15 million and monthly child support of $100,000 in exchange for her silence.
Former partner Ashley St. Clair alleges in new documentary Elon Musk slashed her child support payments from $100,000 to $20,000 following her revelation that they had a son named Romulus in February 2025. St. Clair's claims, reported by Entertainment Weekly, state she was offered a $15 million lump sum and $100,000 monthly support in exchange for silence, but Musk reduced it to $40,000 then $20,000 after her public announcement.
The source states Musk has not responded to the allegations. St. Clair, a former conservative influencer, says Musk appeared to change his demeanor after their son's birth, with the source noting "It was almost as if he didn't show a certain side of himself until after we had our baby." St. Clair is pursuing full custody of Romulus, with the ongoing custody dispute detailed in the documentary.
The source reports their relationship began in 2023 when Musk started interacting with St. Clair's posts on X, the platform he acquired in 2022.
