Elon Musk reveals staggering amount he's paying influencer Ashley St Clair after being accused of having baby with her

"America needs you to grow up, you petulant man-child," was one of the latest jibes from Ashley St Clair, the woman who claims she's the mother of Elon Musk's 13th child, as the pair's bitter legal case rages on.

The Tesla owner has now revealed the staggering amount he is paying the 26-year-old influencer, which includes a lump sum of money in the millions, as well as a healthy 'salary'.

A video posted on Twitter, which of course is owned by 53-year-old Musk, shows St Clair answering questions from reporters all while selling her $100,000 Tesla - which Musk is believed to have gifted to her.

When asked why she was cashing in on her electric vehicle, she replied: "I need to make up for the 60 percent cut that Elon made to our son's child support."

The author was then quizzed over whether she believed the world's richest man was being 'vindictive' towards her, St Clair answered: "Well, that's his modus operandi, when women speak out."

Before adding: "You can check the stocks, I'm not the only one who is cleaning up after his messes. The markets are catching up to what I have known for a long time."

Musk, who St Clair claims hasn't spoken to her since February 13 - the day before she went public about the SpaceX owner's alleged baby, hit back on his social media platform.

He replied: "I don’t know if the child is mine or not, but am not against finding out. No court order is needed.

"Despite not knowing for sure, I have given Ashley $2.5M and am sending her $500k/year."

On February 21, the author had filed two petitions against Musk to the New York Supreme Court, with the first being for sole legal custody of what she claims is their five-month-old son - referred to as 'RSC' - while the second is for the Twitter owner to take a paternity test.

Replying to Musk on Twitter, St Clair added: "Elon, we asked you to confirm paternity through a test before our child (who you named) was even born. You refused.

"And you weren’t sending *me* money, you were sending support for your child that you thought was necessary… until you withdrew most of it to maintain control and punish me for 'disobedience'. But you’re really only punishing your son.

"It’s ironic that your last effort in court was to try to gag me while you use a social media channel you literally own to distribute derogatory messages about me and our child to the entire world. It’s all about control with you, and everyone can see it."
