The report also describes how Musk keeps those details under wraps.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the center of it all, per the report, is longtime fixer Jared Birchall, who runs Musk\u2019s family office but also handles the logistics of Musk\u2019s growing family, including by drafting NDAs and serving as a sounding board for the mothers of some of Musk\u2019s children.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, Musk reportedly asked conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair to sign a restrictive agreement after she gave birth to their son last fall. The deal: $15 million, plus an additional $100,000 a month until the baby turned 21 in exchange for her silence. She refused; now the deal gets worse with every perceived betrayal, she says. (She told the Journal that Musk\u2019s team sent her just $20,000 after the outlet reached out to Musk for comment about its article.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As for Birchall, who is also the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bizjournals.com\/sanjose\/c\/2024-silicon-valley-power-100\/21814\/jared-birchall-ceo-neuralink-corp.html\" target=\"_blank\">CEO<\/a> of Musk\u2019s brain-implant venture Neuralink and a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/xai-org-chart-employees-elon-musk-direct-reports-2025-3\" target=\"_blank\">partner<\/a> at Musk\u2019s AI venture xAI, managing Musk\u2019s private life might just be a third full-time job. Per the Journal, in one 2-hour call with St. Clair, Birchall told her that going the \u201clegal route\u201d with Musk \u201calways, always leads to a worse outcome for that woman than what it would have been otherwise.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Elon Musk says it\u2019s his duty to \u201cmake new humans.\u201d Now, a WSJ investigation suggests he may have&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":25466,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[51,295,2902,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-25465","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-business","8":"tag-business","9":"tag-elon-musk","10":"tag-in-brief","11":"tag-uk","12":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114349135969314344","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25465","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25465"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25465\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25466"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25465"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25465"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25465"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
