Overview
- Ashley St. Clair, who described the offer on the Don Lemon Show on June 16, said she turned down an alleged package of $15 million up front plus $100,000 a month for 20 years.
- She says Elon Musk first messaged his team to wire $15 million for a home and that his wealth manager Jared Birchall later made a two-hour call pushing for a nondisclosure agreement.
- By St. Clair’s account the NDA would have barred her from disparaging Musk or speaking about his employees or affiliates, which she rejected on moral and parental grounds.
- St. Clair says she has not spoken to Musk since refusing the deal and the dispute remains tied to ongoing legal fights over paternity and related claims.
- The episode highlights how NDAs, wealth managers and platform reach can shape privacy and public narrative, a dynamic that could influence court battles and scrutiny of powerful figures.
