Michelle Mootreddy, law enforcement told TMZ , entered Davidson’s house through an open side door and took a seat at his kitchen table. While the comedian himself wasn’t home, one of his relatives was, and subsequently called 911. Mootreddy is allegedly the same person who sent out the fake press release on Tuesday to multiple outlets, claiming she and Davidson are launching a production company called Bodega Cats Presents, in addition to being spouses. “The press release being circulated this morning about Pete Davidson is completely false,” Davidson’s attorney told Complex in a statement later that day. “Not a word of … [Read more...] about Police Find Woman Who Claimed to Be Pete Davidson’s Wife Trespassing in Home
