Ashley St. Clair, the mother of Elon Musk’s child, alleges that Musk reduced her child support payments from $100,000 per month to $20,000 after she publicly revealed the birth of their son, Romulus, and declined to sign a $15 million non-disclosure agreement (NDA). She claims the offer included a $15 million lump sum and ongoing support at the $100,000 monthly level, in exchange for her silence, after their son was born in September 2024.
Other reporting describes the dispute as unfolding alongside an ongoing custody battle. Musk has disputed St. Clair’s account, including denying that such an NDA offer was made. The outlets characterize her allegations as part of the broader legal disagreement over custody and financial terms, with timelines tied to when she publicly disclosed the child’s existence in 2025.
Overall, sources agree on the central points of the claim—an alleged NDA offer, a contested reduction in support, and a custody dispute—while differing in how they present the underlying circumstances and Musk’s response.
