Elon Musk has welcomed his 13th child, who was born five months ago, according to author Ashley St. Clair.
St. Clair, who is best known for her children’s book Elephants Are Not Birds, announced the news via an X post shared on Friday, February 14.
“Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father,” she wrote. “I have not previously disclosed this to protect our child’s privacy and safety, but in recent days it has become clear that tabloid media intends to do so, regardless of the harm it will cause.”
She added: “I intend to allow our child to grow in a normal and safe environment. For that reason, I ask that the media honor our child’s privacy, and refrain from invasive reporting.”

After the birth of X, Musk shared his thoughts on fatherhood with The New York Times in July 2020, revealing Grimes was leading the charge on the parenting front.
“Well, babies are just eating and pooping machines, you know?” he told the outlet. “Right now there’s not much I can do. Grimes has a much bigger role than me right now. … When the kid gets older, there will be more of a role for me.”
In September 2024, Grimes sued Musk in regard to parental rights over their three children. According to court documents obtained by Us Weekly, the “Oblivion” singer filed a “petition to establish parental relationship” in the Superior Court of San Francisco.
