Elon Musk has confirmed that he has welcomed another child, and the infant’s name has also been released.
The child is the fourth shared by Musk and Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis, bringing the X owner’s total to 13 confirmed kids.
Of course, if influencer Ashley St. Clair’s paternal claims against Musk are true, it would mean that the tech billionaire has now fathered 14 children in total.
Zilis, 39, has been a close associate of Musk in both personal and professional capacities.
She was frequently present at Mar-a-Lago last year when Musk operated from the Florida estate following the presidential election.
She also accompanied the SpaceX CEO to President Donald Trump’s inauguration and was seen alongside him earlier this month during a meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Zilis publicly announced the birth for the first time on Friday via X, revealing the name of their latest addition.

“Discussed with Elon and, in light of beautiful Arcadia’s birthday, we felt it was better to also just share directly about our wonderful and incredible son Seldon Lycurgus. Built like a juggernaut, with a solid heart of gold. Love him so much,” Zilis wrote, adding a heart emoji.
Musk responded with a heart emoji of his own.
Details regarding Seldon Lycurgus’ birth date remain undisclosed.
Zilis also used the post to confirm the name of their third child, Arcadia, for the first time. However, Arcadia’s exact birth date and gender are still unknown.
Maye Musk, the billionaire’s mother, has previously expressed support for Zilis on X.
This comes amid a legal battle between Musk and conservative influencer St. Clair, who has claimed the billionaire is the father of her six-month-old son.

St. Clair is currently suing Musk for paternity and custody in a Manhattan court.
As part of her paternity lawsuit, St. Clair has submitted multiple exhibits to the Manhattan Supreme Court, including alleged private Signal messages with Musk that she claims confirm their relationship.
One exchange allegedly shows Musk—identified as “EM”—telling St. Clair: “I want to knock you up again.”
In another exhibit, St. Clair is seen requesting an in-person meeting, citing difficulties communicating through intermediaries. Musk’s alleged response: “Hmm ok. Well, I do have a legion of kids to make.”
A key piece of evidence in the court filings includes a photo of Musk holding the child, cradling the baby in one hand while using his phone in the other.
In her lawsuit, St. Clair alleges that Musk first met their child on September 21, 2024, in New York City, spending two hours with him.
He reportedly saw the child again the following day for one hour and then for the final time on Nov. 30 in Austin, Texas, for 30 minutes.
St. Clair claims she and Musk began a “romantic relationship” in May 2023 and conceived the child in January 2024.
Musk, who has not publicly acknowledged St. Clair’s child as his own, responded to the allegations with a brief comment on X: “Whoa.”
If the allegations are true, then Musk would have 14 children with four different women.
His known children include:
-Twins Vivian and Griffin, and triplets Kai, Saxon, and Damian with his first wife, Justine Wilson (divorced in 2008). Musk and Wilson also welcomed their son Nevada Alexander in 2002. However, at 10 weeks old, he sadly passed away due to SIDs.
-Three children with musician Grimes: X Æ A-Xii (X), Exa Dark Sideræl, and Techno Mechanicus.
-Twins Strider and Azure, son Arcadia, and the newly announced Seldon Lycurgus with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis
We’ll have to wait and see if Musk will publicly confirm and acknowledge St. Clair’s child as his own.
