Ashley St Clair, the 26-year-old political commentator and mother of Elon Musk's son Romulus, has launched a new podcast while revealing she is broke and facing eviction. The influencer, who rejected a multimillion-dollar deal to keep the child's birth secret, is in an ongoing custody dispute with Musk. The Tesla CEO insists he has provided millions in support, but payments have reportedly fallen. A paternity test confirmed Musk fathered Romulus, his 14th child. St Clair says she refuses to let her son feel like a secret.
Ashley St Clair, the 26-year-old political commentator and mother of Elon Musk's son Romulus, has launched a new podcast while revealing she is broke and facing eviction. The influencer, who rejected a multimillion-dollar deal to keep the child's birth secret, is in an ongoing custody dispute with Musk. The Tesla CEO insists he has provided millions in support, but payments have reportedly fallen. A paternity test confirmed Musk fathered Romulus, his 14th child. St Clair says she refuses to let her son feel like a secret.
Ashley St Clair, known for her outspoken conservative views, has reappeared in public life with a new project. She launched a podcast called Bad Advice on Musk's social media platform X, introducing it with a candid admission about her recent struggles.
“Well, after a year of unplanned career suicide, many questionable life choices and a gap in my LinkedIn profile that cannot legally be explained, I've decided to start a podcast,” she said in the first 30-minute episode.
She continued, “Unlike your Ben Shapiros or your Megyn Kellys, I'm not starting this because I think my big brain thoughts and my podcast mic are the greatest gift to humanity. I actually think I have the worst ideas, so consider everything out of my mouth a cautionary tale.”
The new show, which opened with commentary on politics, pop culture and social media trends, was also framed by her financial struggles. “Also, I'm getting evicted, and Polymarket offered me $10,000 to do an ad read. So with that, the roof over my head has been brought to you by Polymarket,” she said.
Commentary on politics and pop culture
St Clair used much of the debut episode to speak on current events in her characteristic style.Referring to the recent attack on Edward Coristine, a former Department of Government Efficiency staffer nicknamed “Big Balls”, she quipped, “The damage was on par with what I sustained after I told my toddler he couldn't watch ‘Paw Patrol'.”
She added, “Two teenagers tried to steal a car, and instead of just letting them take it, Big Balls decided to intervene. He was with his girlfriend or lady partner, whatever the Musk orbit calls their non-committal fluid breeding vessel contenders these days.”
She went on to criticise the idea that Coristine might be honoured for his actions. “The White House is apparently considering giving Big Balls the Presidential Medal of Freedom for getting his a– beat, which is fascinating because I was under the impression that Republicans were morally opposed to participation trophies. Since when does losing a street fight make you Rosa Parks?”
On TikTok creator Kendra Hilty, who went viral for professing her love for both her psychiatrist and an AI chatbot named Henry, St Clair said, “She's probably libeling her psychiatrist. And so what if she's in love with ChatGPT with Henry? You know what Henry won't do? Henry won't sue her for full custody even when he doesn't see the kids.”
She closed with remarks on California Governor Gavin Newsom and the state's homelessness crisis. “He's hot. He's tall. He's got the hair, the teeth, the smug … He's got the hot supervillain vibes, very Patrick Bateman to me. He's like, if Patrick Bateman pretended to care about climate change, you could drop him into an Axe body spray commercial or a Senate hearing, same expression,” she said.
“Crime is also through the roof in California. Same racket, endless task forces, community dialogues, pilot programs. Nothing changes except the balance sheets of every consultant in Sacramento,” she added.
“Who needs Medicare when a TikTok duet hits better than the meds ever will. If you want to win, don't make life better, make the show better. Gavin gets that … this is also why they lose their mind over someone like Zohran Mamdani.”
Custody dispute with Musk
Behind the new media venture is an ongoing and bitter legal battle. St Clair revealed earlier this year that Elon Musk fathered her son Romulus, born in September 2024. On Valentine's Day 2025 she wrote, “Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father. I have not previously disclosed this to protect our child's privacy and safety, but in recent days it has become clear that tabloid media intends to do so, regardless of the harm it will cause.”St Clair has claimed Musk offered her $15 million upfront and $100,000 a month until Romulus turned 21, in exchange for secrecy. She turned the offer down, reportedly telling Musk's aide Jared Birchall, “I don't want my son to feel like he's a secret.”
Her lawyers say that after she rejected the deal, Musk reduced monthly support payments from $100,000 to $40,000, and later to $20,000.
Musk has disputed that version of events. “I don't know if the child is mine or not. Despite not knowing for sure, I have given Ashley $2.5M and am sending her $500k/year,” he tweeted in April. A paternity test, however, confirmed with 99.9999 percent certainty that Musk is the father, according to a report seen by the Wall Street Journal.
Musk's growing family
Romulus is Musk's 14th child. The billionaire entrepreneur already shares six children with his first wife Justine Wilson, three with singer Grimes, and four with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis. One son, Nevada, died from sudden infant death syndrome in 2002.St Clair has kept her son's name private in some statements, though she confirmed he is healthy and thriving.
From private messages to public disputes
St Clair has said her relationship with Musk began in 2023 after he responded to one of her vaccine-scepticism memes with a laughing emoji. The two later met when her then boss, Seth Dillon of Babylon Bee, interviewed Musk. Public exchanges on X followed, covering topics from mental health to environmentalism.In a past interview from her Manhattan apartment, she described Musk as “funny” and “down to earth”, while insisting he had wanted to keep their child hidden for safety reasons.
St Clair, who has written a children's book titled Elephants Are Not Birds and regularly appears in conservative media circles, is now trying to balance financial pressure, legal disputes and public scrutiny with her new role as podcast host. Whether Bad Advice becomes a lasting venture or just another chapter in her turbulent year remains to be seen.
