The FBI chief first met Wilkins at a conservative ReAwaken America event in October 2022, an insider told previously told the Daily Mail. They started dating just a few months later, in January 2023.

Patel has since faced scrutiny over his decision to use government resources to see and protect the country star.

Last year, he used an FBI jet to watch her sing the national anthem at a wrestling match in Pennsylvania, prompting some on social media to accuse Patel of abusing his resources as FBI director amid a government shutdown.

Former FBI agent Kyle Seraphin, for example, roasted him in a post that satirized him as ‘KA$H.’

‘Dear FBI Employees: I’m sorry the government ISN’T funded, so you won’t be getting a paycheck,’ Seraphin wrote. ‘Luckily, that doesn’t stop Real American Freestyle WRESTLING! So I flew the FBI jet to State College PA, hung out with my chick, and then flew to Nashville where she lives.’

But Patel stood by his decision, slamming his critics as ‘uninformed internet anarchists.’

‘The disgustingly baseless attacks against Alexis – a true patriot and the woman I’m proud to call my partner in life – are beyond pathetic,’ he wrote at the time.

‘She is a rock-solid conservative and a country music sensation who has done more for this nation than most will in ten lifetimes. I’m so blessed she’s in my life.’

He then added: ‘Attacking her isn’t just wrong – it’s cowardly and jeopardizes our safety. My love of family will always be my cornerstone, and you will never tear that down or keep me from them,’ he added.

Patel’s spokesperson, Ben Williamson, also defended him, saying his trips pale in comparison to the money spent by former FBI chiefs James Comey and Christopher Wray. He also claimed Patel pays a reimbursement in advance.

‘He’s allowed to take personal time on occasion to see family, friends or his longtime girlfriend. He doesn’t do it often,’ Williamson said.
