Elon Musk, the billionaire entrepreneur and CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has once again made headlines—not for his ventures in space or AI but for welcoming his 14th child! His partner and Neuralink executive, Shivon Zilis, recently announced the birth of their fourth child together, a son named Seldon Lycurgus.
In this blog, we’ll take a deep dive into Musk’s growing family, his views on population growth, and the controversies surrounding his fatherhood.

4. Alleged Child with Ashley St. Clair
Recently, political commentator Ashley St. Clair claimed that she gave birth to Musk’s 13th child (RSC) five months ago and has filed for a paternity test. A New York court has ordered Musk to respond to the case by May 29, 2025.
Musk’s Perspective on Large Families
Elon Musk has repeatedly voiced concerns about declining birth rates worldwide. He believes that a population collapse could threaten human civilization and has even encouraged others to have more children.
Musk has reportedly offered to donate sperm to his close friends and associates who wish to conceive. His belief in pro-family policies aligns with his vision of ensuring a thriving human race.
Controversy Over Fatherhood Responsibilities
While Musk actively promotes larger families, he has faced criticism regarding his role as a father. Some reports suggest that he is not actively involved in the upbringing of all his children. His estranged daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, legally changed her name and gender, publicly distancing herself from Musk.
Final Thoughts: A Family Bigger Than a Business Empire?
With 14 children (and possibly more to come), Elon Musk is making as many headlines for his personal life as he does for his futuristic innovations. Whether seen as a visionary advocate for population growth or a controversial figure in fatherhood, one thing is clear—his legacy will not only be about Tesla, SpaceX, or AI but also about his ever-growing family.
