Billie Eilish Granted Restraining Order Against Alleged Home Intruder

In a February 9 court hearing, “Ocean Eyes” singer Billie Eilish was granted a five-year restraining order against 39-year-old Christopher Anderson, an alleged fan and intruder who had broken into her childhood house in Los Angeles. Her parents, who still live there, and brother Finneas O’Connell will also receive protection.

Eilish filed for temporary protection last month, detailing that she and her family had called the police on Anderson five times after he showed up repeatedly at the home since late December 2022.

According to her father Patrick O’Connell, Anderson had also professed his love for the 21-year-old singer and stated that that he really wanted to meet her.

The order means that the accused will not be allowed 91 meters of her and is also prohibited from reaching out to her on social media.

“Each such occasion, including the present one, causes me substantial anxiety, fear, and emotional distress over my personal safety and that of my father, mother, and brother,” Eilish wrote, her court filings indicating that she currently does not feel safe visiting her parents’ home. “I worry that someday one of these individuals will do something violent or extremely disturbing to me or one of my family members.”

If Anderson were to violate any of the restrictions, police can immediately arrest him.
