Tiger Woods 'mistress' Rachel Uchitel to break 10-year silence to HBO
HBO to air new documentary series that will reportedly explore the "rise, fall and redemption of global icon Tiger Woods."
Tiger Woods' alleged "mistress" Rachel Uchitel is set to break her 10-year silence and reveal more details about her encounters with Tiger Woods in an upcoming documentary series with American TV network channel HBO.
According to HBO, the new docuseries will explore the "rise, fall and redemption of global icon Tiger Woods."
The TV channel adds that "Rachel Uchitel, the woman at the centre of the sex scandal that forever altered Tiger's world, will be breaking her silence for the first time."
Uchitel, who according to The Sun website "destroyed" Woods' marriage to Elin Nordegren back in 2010, recently addressed some details about the time she spent with Woods during an interview with Heather McDonald on her 'Juicy Scoop' podcast.
"I first met Tiger Woods - I was dating Derek Jeter - and Tiger was sleeping over at Derek's house," Uchitel told McDonald on how she first met Woods.
"He was just a buddy... and we just became friendly. So that's how I originally met him in Manhattan.
"I met him a couple of times in the nightclubs through other people and he would come in or whatever."
As for being interviewed by HBO for the new documentary series about Tiger Woods, Uchitel claims she wants to have some sort of voice on the matter after all these years.
"I felt like people have gone so low on me sort of about me over the last 10 years after all this stuff that had come out about the scandal that I felt at some point I needed to you know like remove the shackles of what that is like to not have a voice," said Uchitel.
"I felt like at some point, I needed to have a voice of what that was like for me and what it's been like for me because I don't think people really get that because people just like to throw names around."
Uchitel added: "That's a really hard way to live your life cause I've been stuck under that cloud and under that branding, and I haven't had a chance to get out of that. There are people that go through scandals like that, that are able to sort of slip out of it, and it's harder for a woman I think. And I deserve my own stand-up and share moment.
"Tiger gets to win awards or win his different tournaments. He gets to come out of things and have mishaps, and get up again, and people want to cheer for him. But the women don't get that so much, not just with him but with any scandal, and that's not really fair. And I just felt like I needed to be able to have a voice finally.
"Because it's been a really hard 10 years of having to just sit there and let people, in the absence of truth, let people say things about me and also just let people talk about me like they know me because they don't. And that's a really hurtful way to live. It hasn't been easy, ya know. So I decided to speak."
