Ian Miles Cheong has officially called out users for seemingly gloating about billionaire Elon Musk unfollowing him on X. Musk’s action came after Cheong shared a post about his ex-partner, Ashley St. Clair.
In a May 27 post on X, Ian Miles Cheong wrote:
“It’s pretty cool how some of you who act like you’re friends with me are publicly gloating over Elon’s decision to unfollow me. Good to know where I stand with you!”
Fans have been speculating that Elon Musk unfollowed Cheong due to his controversial post about St. Clair, one of the Tesla CEO’s exes, with whom he shares a son. In that post in question, Cheong had written:
“Ashley St. Claire is now trying to smash Hasan Piker. Third baby on the way, I guess.”
As of this writing, Elon Musk hasn’t publicly commented on Ian Miles Cheong’s comments on Ashley. However, the billionaire no longer follows the latter on social media.
Meanwhile, Musk and St. Claire share a tumultuous relationship, especially after the model gave birth to her son with the billionaire, Romulus. The two have been involved in a custody battle for the child.
Ashley St. Clair claims Elon Musk’s behaviour towards her changed after she got pregnant
In a series of TikTok videos shared on her account on May 15, Ashley St Clair claimed Musk’s behaviour towards her became “weird” after she got pregnant with Romulus. She said:
“As soon as I’m pregnant, this is when things start getting weird. There’s just things that are not adding up or that are different from what he previously said to me.”
St. Clair also claimed Musk was “so much more normal” before she became pregnant. She also recalled how the Tesla CEO had reacted to her pregnancy news, adding:
“It was [a] very normal conversation. His demeanour was normal. I know I’m going to get roasted for this, but in private, he was funny, but then it just got so f–king weird, man.”
Further, St. Clair suggested that she was never planning on getting married to Elon Musk, as the influencer had already been a single mom. Apart from Romulus, she is also the mother to another son from a previous relationship.
“The chances of me getting married and the white picket fence and the white dress, I believed that was out the window for me because I was already ‘stained’ as a single mom. But, I wanted nothing more than to be a mom. I wanted more kids,” Ashley said.
She added:
“So, when Elon was like, ‘You should have kids, my only limited resource is time,’ of course, it is appealing to do what I always wanted to…be a mom and not have to worry about the s–t going on in this economy. I don’t think that’s a crazy position to take. It’s more like, ‘My kids are always going to be taken care of.'”
Ashley St. Clair had secretly given birth to Elon Musk’s son, Romulus, and only came into the forefront in February 2025. Musk also doubted whether the son was biologically his when reports claimed he did not pay St. Clair for child care. However, a DNA test conducted later proved otherwise.
Apart from Romulus, Musk has 13 other publicly acknowleged children from four different women.
