“Elon, we asked you to confirm paternity through a test before our child (who you named) was even born. You refused,” she wrote on X.Court documents allege that Musk:

Has met the child only three times, with a total of less than four hours spent together.
Has never initiated contact about the child.
Did not attend the birth and declined all offers to be involved in parenting.
“He has never communicated to me about our child without my prompting,” she stated. “You’re really only punishing your son.”Sources close to the case say Musk imposed a list of conditions on support—allegedly demanding St. Clair keep his identity and involvement a secret. When she refused, support was slashed, and communication ended.

“When she went public, he never spoke to her again. And when this went to court, he cut the support payments. It’s a substantial reduction,” said a source.

The support cut has forced St. Clair to make lifestyle changes. She is raising two children, including her three-year-old son from a previous relationship, in a rented three-bedroom Manhattan apartment, relying on a nanny without assistance from Musk.

“She’s being punitively given far less money than before,” the source added. “He offers no logistical help. Just silence.”Musk’s attorneys successfully moved to have the case sealed in March 2025—a move critics say is designed to gag St. Clair from speaking publicly.
