Kash Patel, the FBI Director, is engaged to country singer Alexis Wilkins, as they announced in a recent post on X. Wilkins shared a photo showing off her engagement ring with the playful caption, “Went and got the law involved.” The couple has been dating since before Patel became FBI Director in 2025, when Wilkins attended his swearing-in ceremony.
Wilkins, who is 27, released her debut album in 2023 and is known for her work with conservative groups, stating on her website that she aims to blend country traditions with contemporary themes. Patel, aged 46, faced scrutiny for using FBI jets for personal trips, including one to a pro wrestling event where Wilkins performed the national anthem.
Additionally, Wilkins performed at President Donald Trump’s Great American State Fair on the National Mall, gaining attention especially as other artists withdrew when they learned it was not a non-partisan event.
