FBI Director Kash Patel’s wife is Ritika. The couple divorced in 2023 after three years of marriage.
Following a lawsuit, Patel agreed to pay his ex-wife a one-time lump sum of $2 million, with no further alimony obligations.
There are reports that Iran hacked Kash Patel’s computers, possibly getting into his messages. Some say they even got private photos of him and his ex-wife.
The split was reportedly messy, with Ritika accusing Patel of hiding assets and refusing to be transparent about his finances.
As part of the deal, she got to keep their luxury condo in Miami, while Patel kept their vacation home in the Hamptons.
Kash Patel’s wife Ritika is a graphic designer who studied visual arts and design at Sterling University.
Costly Affair
While still married to his wife, Kash started seeing Alexis Wilkins. Alexis currently serves as a Press Secretary on the Capitol Hill.
Kash’s wife quoted the affair as the reason for their split and leveraged it to get a huge paycheck from Kash.
Alexis owns a Porsche gifted to her by Kash. Ritika and Pete Hegseth’s wife Jennifer together own a restaurant in New York.
