The mother of one of Elon Musk's 14 children was photographed selling her $100,000 Tesla to Carvana to care for her family.

Ashley St. Clair, 26, told the Daily Mail that Musk reduced her child support payments because she revealed he was the father of her son, who has only been referred to as R.S.C., in February.

"I need to make up for the 60% cut that Elon made to our son's child support," St. Clair told the Mail. The reporter then asked if Musk was "vindictive" toward her, to which St. Clair retorted it is the tech billionaire's "modus operandi when women speak out."

While referencing Tesla's sinking stock prices, St. Clair added she is not "the only one who is cleaning up after his messes" and that "the markets are catching up to what [she has] known for a long time."

The conservative influencer, who is caring for R.S.C. and a 3-year-old child from a previous relationship with a New York chiropractor, said she is now struggling to make ends meet.

"This guy, who is supposedly dedicated to transparency and accountability in government, the first thing he did when he went into court was to try to gag Ashley so that she couldn't say anything, even as he was unilaterally cutting her support," a source close to St. Clair told the Mail, adding that his actions were "shocking" and "shameful."

Musk has reportedly met his son three times since St. Clair gave birth in September 2024, for which the billionaire was not present.
