Rachel Uchitel, a night club promoter and serial adulterer, who became overnight famous with her affair with golf genius and billionaire sportsman Tiger Woods said that her affair was more than just a fling and that the golfer superstar was quite serious about her.
According to reports, Rachel Uchital said “In every story, you need a villain and a hero,” she has reportedly told OK! magazine in an interview. “I’ve been characterized as the villain. People have called me a home wrecker. I make mistakes, but I’m not a tramp, a gold digger, or a whore. I have good qualities. When you’re judged by the nation, it’s really difficult. It’s horrible.”
According to gossip websites and a press release issued by In Touch Weekly, the topic of Tiger’s relationship with Uchitel was what sent his wife Elin through the roof. According to various reports, he said he was in love with Uchitel. Tiger told her he would divorce his wife for her, an insider says, adding that Tiger Woods “desperately wanted to leave Elin and their kids to be with her.”
In an e-mail obtained by In Touch Weekly, he gushed, “I know it’s brutal on you that you can’t be with me all the time. I get it. It f***ing kills me, too.” The golf great continued: “I finally found someone I connect with, someone I have never found. Not even at home. You want someone to witness your life.”
After Uchitel replied and complained that she didn’t feel like hashing out the relationship over email, a solemn Tiger wrote back, “You don’t have to answer that e-mail. I just wanted you to know what’s going on inside me.”
This was before Tiger and Uchitel got into a fight after he questioned her motives and accused her of sleeping with him because he was famous. “I don’t know if this is going to work,” he said.
