Brooklyn influencer Pei Chung, who has become infamous for allegedly avoiding restaurant bills, was evicted from her upscale Williamsburg apartment on Tuesday. The property is owned by none other than former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer.

Chung, known for her high-fashion lifestyle as depicted on social media, is currently incarcerated due to allegations of dining and dashing at several eateries. According to court filings, she frequently failed to pay her rent on time and remained in the apartment at 416 Kent Ave. even after her lease had officially ended.

Legal documents reveal that by the conclusion of her lease in August 2024, Chung owed approximately $8,000. Her continued residence in the $3,350-per-month apartment after the lease expiration suggests potential arrears exceeding $50,000, as indicated in the court records.

The eviction was carried out by City Marshal Robert Renzulli, who confirmed to Fox News Digital that the process was completed smoothly on Tuesday. According to a report by the New York Post, Renzulli spent about an hour changing the locks on Chung’s apartment.

“The apartment was vacant,” Renzulli stated. “The young lady was not there. The eviction is completed.”

He added that her belongings — including furniture, clothing and bedding — were still inside the unit, NYPost reported. According to city rules, the landlord must hold the items for 30 days before disposing of them.

“The general rule is that the landlord can dispose of the belongings, but in this case, I’m sure they’ll be speaking to their attorneys before they do anything like that,” he added.

The influencer was reportedly a troublesome tenant, according to the NYPost, which cited neighbors claiming there were “repeated outbursts, visible signs of conflict, and disorder in the hallway.” Building manager Bob Jenny reportedly added that Chung would leave garbage in the hallway and make excessive noise.

“We are very aware of the situation and have a very active legal case against this Resident,” Jenny previously said, according to court documents, NYPost reported. “NYPD has been here multiple times . . . with little long term improvement.”

Chung — known for flaunting skimpy lingerie and high-end fashion from Cartier, Louis Vuitton and Burberry on social media — rose to notoriety after being arrested at least 10 times for allegedly skipping out on lavish gourmet meals at upscale restaurants, NYPost reported.

According to the outlet, frustrated restaurant staff said Chung, always draped in designer labels, pretended to be a food influencer as she ran up pricey tabs she had no intention of paying, then posted the meals on Instagram as though they were sponsored.

Fox News Digital reached out to Eliot Spitzer for more information.
