Ashley St. Clair, who says she is the mother of one of Elon Musk‘s children, accused the billionaire of withdrawing child support payments to punish her for “disobedience”.

St. Clair was responding to a post on X in which Musk said he did not know if her child is his, “but am not against finding out. No court order is needed.” Musk said he gave her $2.5 million and sends her $500,000 a year.

“Elon, we asked you to confirm paternity through a test before our child (who you named) was even born. You refused,” St. Clair wrote on X, a platform Musk owns.

“And you weren’t sending *me* money, you were sending support for your child that you thought was necessary… until you withdrew most of it to maintain control and punish me for ‘disobedience.’ But you’re really only punishing your son.

“It’s ironic that your last effort in court was to try to gag me while you use a social media channel you literally own to distribute derogatory messages about me and our child to the entire world. It’s all about control with you, and everyone can see it.

“America needs you to grow up, you petulant man-child.”
