Billionaire tech guru Elon Musk has announced plans to file for full custody of his one-year-old son following his baby mama, Ashley St. Clair’s public apology over her past transphobic remarks.

Mr Musk, on Monday, revealed the decision in a post on X, contained in a response to a concerned user’s comment.

“I will be filing for full custody today, given her statements implying she might transition a one-year-old boy,” Mr Musk tweeted.

The X CEO’s decision follows Ms St. Clair’s publicly expressed regret over past transphobic views, which Mr Musk says has raised concerns.

As of press time, Ms St. Clair has not responded to Mr Musk’s remarks.

Ms St. Clair, a right-wing influencer, came into the limelight in February 2025 when she announced that Mr Musk was the father of her son.

“Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father,” she claimed.

“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,” she stated.

Retracting her past views on transgender issues, Ms St. Clair, on Sunday, acknowledged the potential harm her previously held views may have caused members of the public in a post on X.

“I feel immense guilt for my role. And even more guilt that things I have said in the past may have caused my son’s sister more pain. Idrk how to make amends for many of these things but I have been trying incredibly hard privately to learn + advocate for those within the trans community that I’ve hurt,” she tweeted.

“I also haven’t said much on this bc I have gone back and forth over whether my voice would be helpful on the issue since it will be framed as disingenuous or just turning bc I’m “scorned.” Even this reply will become right wing hysteria but yeah I am sorry. Let me know how I can help,” she added.
