Elon Musk Offered $15M and Monthly Payments for Silence Over Child's Paternity

Ashley St. Clair, the 26-year-old author, has claimed that Elon Musk made her a multimillion-dollar offer to keep quiet about their son's paternity. 

In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, St. Clair revealed that Musk allegedly proposed a one-time payment of $15 million and $100,000 monthly payments until their child turned 21, in exchange for her silence regarding their relationship and child.

St. Clair, who named their son Romulus, said that shortly after giving birth in September, Musk's long-time associate, Jared Birchall, contacted her to request that she keep both the relationship and her child private.
