Marilou Danley, the girlfriend of Las Vegas shooter Stephen Paddock, is not a bigamist despite an earlier Newsweek report that claimed she had been leaving a double life.

Newsweek has since retracted a report they published late Tuesday saying that Marilou - a Philippines native - had once been married to two men at the same time and used two social security numbers during her two decades in the US.

The details emerged after Marilou was named a 'person of interest' in the investigation into the murder of 58 people at the Route 91 Harvest music festival on Sunday.

The report had claimed that Marilou had two husbands at once, claiming she was married to both Geary Danley in 1990 and Jose Bustos in 1996. Geary Danley, 76, lives in Arkansas, but she did not divorce him until 2015, the report added.

But public records found by DailyMail.com showed they were in fact two completely different women.

Marilou Danley: The girlfriend of the man accused in the deadly Las Vegas shooting. She is thought to have lived in Nevada since 2003

Records show there is a Marilou Natividad-Bustos registered in California and her age is listed as 55.

Marilou Danley, who was in a relationship with the Las Vegas shooter, is 62 years old and is registered as living in Nevada.

Natividad-Bustos has four children and worked as a housekeeper in a Hilton hotel in San Francisco, according to a bankruptcy report she filed back in 2012.

Paddock's girlfriend only had one child who lives in California. It is not clear if her ex-husband Geary Danly was the father.

The family of Geary Danly, however, has said they do not 'know Stephen Paddock and has had no knowledge of Marilou's relationship with Paddock'.

'Marilou is our ex step-mom. She is a good and gentle person and I know she has to be devastated by what has happened,' Dionne Waltrip, one of her former step-daughters, told Arkansas station 5 News.

They did not reveal why she and their father parted ways, but reiterated that she was a 'good person'.

'We know nothing of this relationship ever. We have never heard of this man ever in our lives. She is kind. She's very gentle. She's very giving, she's always happy. She's just extremely nice and fun to be around.

'She's not harmful. She's not a bad person at all,' Deirdre Terrell, her other former step-daughter, said.

This comes as it emerged Danley told her brother that she was guilty of nothing and had a 'clear conscience'

Reynaldo Bustos immediately called his younger sister Marilou to ask her if she was ok after her boyfriend Stephen Paddock killed 58 in Vegas on Sunday.

'I called her up immediately and she said, 'Relax, we shouldn't worry about it. I'll fix it. Do not panic. I have a clean conscience,'' Bustos said in an interview from the Philippine capital of Manila according to ABC News.

Marilou Danley (pictured above in the Philippines on September 29) voluntarily returned to the US in a bid to 'clear her name' of any involvement in the massacre that saw Paddock kill 59 people, according to officials

Paddock is reported to have used identification belonging to Danley, who has an Australian passport, when checking in to the Las Vegas hotel where he committed the atrocity. It is not know how much control he had over her other identification papers.

The revelations come amid news that Paddock, 64, wired $100,000 to the Philippines days before he committed mass murder.

Danley's two sisters, meanwhile, appeared on Seven News on Wednesday evening, tearfully claiming she was sent to the Philippines by Stephen Paddock so she would not 'interfere'.

Amelia Manango and Liza Werner said their sister is a 'good and gentle person' and was as 'shocked' as the rest of the world at the horrific actions of her partner.

'I know that she don't know anything as well like us. She was sent away. She was sent away so that she will not be there to interfere with what he's planning,' Ms Danley's sister told Seven News.

The siblings of the Las Vegas mass murderer's girlfriend have emotionally broken their silence, saying she was unaware of his motivation to commit such an atrocity

'He sent her away so that he can plan what he is planning without interruptions,' one of the sisters said.

'In that sense, I thank him for sparing my sister's life, but that won't be able to compensate the 59 people's lives.'

They say they hope Ms Danley can assist police with their investigations as she is the only one who can 'put the puzzles together.'

'To be able to find out the person you love and live with can do such things, you thought you know the person yourself.'

Danley was met by federal investigators after landing at LAX airport in Los Angeles on Tuesday at 7.17pm PST.

She was seen being wheeled through LAX in a wheelchair in footage obtained by NBC News.

Danley, who had traveled to Hong Kong on September 25, was escorted through the terminal by FBI agents after a flight from the Philippines.

She was wearing a hat and light blue jacket and was pushing a black suitcase in front of her. It is not yet clear where she was then taken or why she was in the wheelchair

Danley had been in the southeast Asian country before the shooting occurred.

It remains unclear if she had prior knowledge of the shooting, according to The New York Times.

Authorities in the Philippines said that Danely had been in Manilla since September 22, more than a week before the shooting.

Just a week before Sunday's event, Paddock had wired an estimated $100,000 to the Philippines.

Paddock sent the money to an account before setting up a sniper's nest on the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay hotel on Sunday.

Law enforcement officials who confirmed the wire transfer to NBC did not reveal who the bank account belongs to.

Danley has not been charged with a crime.

Before Paddock opened fire on hundreds of civilians over the weekend, he was known for his tendency to berate his girlfriend at their local Starbucks.

Paddock and Danley were regulars at the Starbucks inside the Virgin River Casino in Mesquite.

Paddock had a habit of lashing out at Danley in front of the coffee-chain's employees, according to Esperanza Mendoza.

Mendoza, who is the supervisor at the Starbucks, told the Los Angeles Times on Tuesday that the abuse 'happened a lot'.

The pair always ordered the same drinks. Paddock would get a venti mocha cappuccino and Danley would get a medium caramel macchiato.

Mendoza said the abuse came when Danley would ask to use his casino card to make the purchase.

The card allows gamblers to use credits earned on electronic gambling machines to pay for souvenirs or food in the casino.

'He would glare down at her and say, 'You don't need my casino card for this. I'm paying for your drink, just like I'm paying for you,'' Mendoza recalled.

She told the newspaper that Danley would then cower behind him and softly say, 'OK'.

Danley is believed to be an Australian citizen and previously lived on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia, for more than a decade with her former husband, an Australian man, who has since passed away.

She moved to the United States 20 years ago, according to one of her former neighbors who said she is originally from the Philippines, The Herald Sun reported.

Her now deleted Facebook page identified her as a 'proud mom and grandma who lives life to the fullest.'

58 people were slaughtered and 527 were injured in the massacre in Las Vegas on Sunday night

Danley had described herself on her LinkedIn page as a 'gambling and casino professional' living in Reno, Nevada.

That social media page also listed her as working as a 'high limit hostess' at Club Paradise, Atlantis Casino in Reno between 2010 and 2013, but does not list another job since that year.

Records show that Danley and Paddock lived together in a three-year-old, two-bedroom home on Babbling Brook Court in the tiny desert community of Mesquite, which is 80 miles north east of Las Vegas near the Arizona state border. Records show the property cost $396,000 (£297,554).

Paddock's killing spree saw him firing thousands of rounds from two suites at the Mandalay Bay hotel onto the Route 91 Harvest country music festival.

He fired for nine minutes on the crowd of 22,000 from two windows, which he'd broken through with a hammer before the attacks. He shot 58 people dead and wounded more than 500 people.

It has been revealed that Paddock was prescribed anti-anxiety medication Valium back in June, which has been linked to increased aggressive behavior in multiple studies.

Paddock was taking 10 milligram tablets at the time of the massacre, though it is not known why he was prescribed them or whether he had underlying behavioral issues.
