NOMINATED FBI Director Kash Patel is preparing to move to the nation’s capital with his much younger country star girlfriend, according to a bombshell report.

For the past few weeks, Patel, 44, has rarely been seen without his gun-toting lover Alexis Wilkins, 26, smiling close by.

They’ve been captured in glam pictures at Inauguration Day festivities and political events, but no one knows their exact relationship status.

Now, an inside source has revealed that the couple has been together since January 2023 and can’t wait for their next adventure together, the Daily Mail reported.

Wilkins and Patel first met in October 2022 at the ReAwaken Tour, which was led by Donald Trump’s former national security advisor, Michael Flynn.

They began dating soon after and have been a happy couple ever since.

Wilkins was born in Switzerland and England but moved to Arkansas as a child and settled there with her family.

Now, she lives in Music City to invest in her blossoming music career, which has seen her tour with stars like Sara Evans and Chris Young.

At one point, she opened for Lee Greenwood, who performs one of Trump’s favorite tunes, God Bless the USA.

On her website, she wrote, “Country music is here to stay.

“I want people to hear truthful songs. These are real moments in my life and vignettes in time, and country music has always been the truth.”

Though she is primarily a country singer, Wilkins isn’t shy about sharing her feelings on politics and culture.

On Instagram, she often makes videos for PragerU, a nonprofit media organization that promotes conservative ideas.

She has also spoken before for Young America’s Foundation, another conservative group that trains rising journalists.

Now, Wilkins is reportedly starting a new gig as Republican Representative Abe Hamadeh’s press secretary as she joins her boyfriend in Washington DC.

PATEL’S ROADBLOCKS

Before Patel can officially join Trump’s cabinet, he must earn the Senate’s majority vote.

In his initial hearings, he’s faced a series of roadblocks as he fights allegations of having improper relationships with countries like Qatar and being a conspiracy theorist.

On Tuesday, it was also revealed that Patel was awarded a handsome $800,000 stock payout from Trump’s media company Truth Social, according to Bloomberg.

That earning reportedly wasn’t put on his financial disclosure or ethics agreement.

But despite the mudslinging, Patel has quieted the noise by solemnly promising to rebuild public trust in the FBI.

In an opinion piece published in the Wall Street Journal, Patel vowed to support good police work and fight for transparency within the FBI.

“I am committed to working alongside the dedicated men and women of the FBI,” he wrote.

“They are our warriors of justice, and I will always have their backs, because they have the backs of the American people.”
