A report published and later revised by The New York Times triggered a sharp response from Alexis Wilkins, the girlfriend of FBI Director Kash Patel, after it suggested she was seen holding another man's hand during the chaos following the shooting at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner. According to reports, the claim emerged in early live coverage of the incident at the Washington Hilton hotel. Kash Patel's girlfriend rejects report as 'false' and 'sick' 'I was only ever holding Kash's hand,' Alexis Wilkins said.
