Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk has welcomed a new addition to his ever-growing family, announcing the birth of his 14th child, a son named Seldon Lycurgus. The baby is his fourth child with Shivon Zilis, a Canadian executive at Neuralink, Musk’s neurotechnology firm.
Ms. Zilis shared the news on X, the social media platform owned by Musk, also revealing the previously unknown name of their third child.
“Discussed with Elon and, in light of beautiful Arcadia’s birthday, we felt it was better to also just share directly about our wonderful and incredible son, Seldon Lycurgus,” Zilis wrote. “Built like a juggernaut, with a solid heart of gold. Love him so much.” Musk responded to the post with a heart emoji.
Known for bestowing unique names on his children, Musk’s growing brood includes Exa Dark Sideræl, Strider, Azure, and X Æ A-12, known simply as X. He has long expressed concerns about declining birth rates, calling them “the biggest danger civilization faces by far.”
“Bravo to big families,” the 53-year-old tech mogul once said, reinforcing his commitment to expanding his lineage.
Musk has children with at least three different women:
- Justine Wilson (his first wife) – Six children
- Grimes (Claire Boucher, Canadian electropop musician) – Three children
- Shivon Zilis (Neuralink executive) – Four children
Allegations of Another Child with Influencer Ashley St Clair
Controversy has recently emerged as Ashley St Clair, a 26-year-old conservative influencer, has filed a lawsuit claiming Musk is the father of her five-month-old son. She alleges that there is no doubt about the paternity and has included text messages purportedly from Musk as evidence.
“Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father,” she wrote on X. As part of her lawsuit, she insisted: “I did not have sexual intercourse with any other male during the time the child was conceived.”
In the legal documents, St Clair provided text messages allegedly sent by Musk, including one in which he reportedly wrote: “I look forward to seeing you and him this weekend.”
Musk has yet to respond publicly to these claims.
Who is Ashley St Clair?
At the time of meeting Musk, St Clair was working for The Babylon Bee, a conservative satirical website often described as a right-wing version of The Onion. She is a frequent guest on conservative news outlets and shares Musk’s concerns about declining birth rates in developed nations.
With Musk’s latest announcement and ongoing paternity allegations, public and media attention remains high. While his influence in technology, business, and space exploration continues to dominate headlines, his personal life and growing family continue to spark intrigue and debate.
