Elon Musk’s baby mama Ashley St. Clair revealed she is broke and “getting evicted” from her home amid her ongoing paternity battle with the billionaire SpaceX mogul.
The conservative influencer launched the Bad Advice podcast this week, uploading the first episode to Musk’s X platform, the New York Post reports.
“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,” Ms St. Clair said in the 30-minute clip.
“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,” she quipped.

Ms St. Clair, who claimed to have given birth to Elon Musk’s 13th child in an X post in February, stated she was getting “evicted” and had secured an essential $US10,000 ($A15,000) sponsorship from trade company Polymarket for the episode.
Musk has yet to confirm whether he is the father of her child, Romulus.
She previously told The Post that Musk provided her with a lavish apartment in New York’s Financial District — where rent for a two-bedroom can soar to nearly $US40,000 ($A61,000), according to StreetEasy.
The $US15,000 ($A24,000)-a-month New York apartment boasts three bedrooms and two bathrooms, features large windows, wood flooring, and sweeping views of the Manhattan skyline, Realtor reports.
According to records, the apartment was last leased in April 2024 for $US15,350 ($A23,790) a month. St. Clair’s social media images indicate that she has been living there since at least May of that year — a few months before she claims she gave birth to Musk’s child.

Speaking to The Wall Street Journal in April, Ms St. Clair alleged her decision to go public with her claims that Musk fathered her son led to a breakdown in their previously amicable relationship.
Before she posted on X, the conservative firebrand said the billionaire had offered her $US15 million ($A23 million) as well as $US100,000 ($A154,000) a month in support payments if she agreed to remain silent about the identity of Romulus’ father.
She told the outlet that she refused the offer, largely out of concern that the arrangement would make her son feel illegitimate, while also leaving her with little financial security in the event that something happened to Musk before her child turned 21.
However, the mother of two claimed to the Wall Street Journal that her financial situation had taken a serious turn for the worse in the time since she had been living in the apartment — and she accused Musk of repeatedly slashing her support payments, just as her legal fees were skyrocketing.

After she chose to speak out about the circumstances of her son’s conception and birth, Ms St. Clair claimed Musk withdrew his offer to pay her $US15 million ($A23 million), while the alleged $US100,000 ($A154,000)-a-month support payments were cut to $US40,000 ($A61,000).
She told the outlet that she didn’t receive her “scheduled child support payment” on April 11 — one day after the Journal contacted Musk for a comment about her story.
On April 15, hours before the report was published, she says a reduced payment of $US20,000 ($A31,000) was sent to her.
The South Africa-born Tesla founder had five children with his first wife, Justine Wilson — twins Vivian and Griffin and triplets Kai, Saxon and Damian. The son Nevada died from sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) at just 10 weeks old in 2002.
Musk and Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis also share twins Strider and Azure, daughter Arcadia and son Seldon Lycurgus.
