“I have viewed images of this individual and can confirm I have no idea who he is and that I have had no prior relationship or communication with him,” said Eilish about Anderson, according to Insider.
Anderson reportedly entered “apparently professing his love for me and expressing that he really wanted to meet me.” Billie also claimed in her lawsuit that he visited the residence “unannounced and uninvited” several times between late December and early January.

The court granted a restraining order in favour of Eilish which directs Anderson to stay 100 yards away from her, her family, her parent’s home, her vehicle or her job site. He is not also permitted to contact her on social media. In case he breaches the order, he can be arrested right away. Eilish’s family members included in the order include her mother and father, Maggie May Baird and Patrick Mead O’Connell, her brother and producer Finneas O’Connell.
The lawsuit also mentioned that the police had been called to the property no less than five times for similar incidents. “Regrettably, this is not the first time an unknown individual has attempted to contact my family and me specifically by stalking us outside my family’s home and by making professions of love to and threats of violence against me,” she added.
