Alexis Wilkins, the girlfriend of FBI director Kash Patel, filed a defamation lawsuit this week against podcaster Kyle Seraphin over his claims that Wilkins is an Israeli intelligence agent.

The lawsuit was first reported by the Reason legal news site, which published copies of the suit on Thursday.

Seraphin, himself a former FBI agent, claimed to his listeners that Wilkins, a 26-year-old Country singer, is operating a so-called honeypot scheme on behalf of Mossad to manipulate Patel in favor of Israel.

According to the lawsuit, Seraphin “has maliciously lied” about Wilkins, and is “using this fabricated story as self-enriching clickbait.”

The suit centers around comments made on an August 22 episode of the “Kyle Seraphin Show,” during which Seraphin said that Patel “has had his own little ‘honeypot’ issue that’s been going on of late, so we’re just going to acknowledge it real publicly.”

“He’s got a girlfriend that is half his age,” he said, claiming that “she’s also a former Mossad agent.”

“But I’m sure that’s totally because, like, she’s really looking for like a cross-eyed, you know, kind of thickish built, super cool bro who’s almost 50 years old who’s Indian in America,” the podcaster quipped.

“Anyway, I’m sure that’s totally just, like, love,” he said. “That’s what real love looks like.”

The podcast did not mention Wilkins by name, but the lawsuit says the comments were “obviously” about her.

The suit alleges that Seraphin claimed Wilkins is “an agent of a foreign government who began a relationship with another for purposes of manipulating and compromising them.”

“He is accusing Ms. Wilkins of being a spy for a foreign government, conducting espionage to undermine our national security and/or to manipulate federal law enforcement at the highest level, and even committing treason,” her lawyer said.

“Ms. Wilkins is not even Jewish, much less Israeli, and has never set foot in Israel,” the suit continued. “The notion that her relationship with Director Patel is part of some plot against her country is vile and ridiculous.

“The defendant cannot even claim ignorance or negligence, because he has personally met Ms. Wilkins with Mr. Patel at a conservative political event roughly two years ago, and was specifically aware from that encounter that Ms. Wilkins was in a relationship with Mr. Patel, who was not the FBI director at that time,” the suit added.

Wilkins is seeking a minimum $5 million in damages for Seraphin’s alleged defamation.
