Rachel Uchitel, famously known as one of Tiger Woods’ former mistresses, has once again shed light on the events that transpired after her affair with the golfing legend was uncovered. Speaking candidly in a recent interview, Uchitel revealed how Elin Nordegren, Tiger’s then-wife, reacted to discovering the betrayal and how the scandal derailed her life.
Uchitel became a central figure in one of the biggest celebrity scandals of the 2000s when news of Woods’ infidelity broke in 2009. Among several women linked to the golfer, Uchitel’s name became synonymous with the fallout of the affair. She has now shared new details about the immediate aftermath, including how Nordegren confronted her and the impact on her own life.
According to Uchitel, Elin found evidence of the affair on Tiger’s phone, including explicit text messages. This discovery led to the infamous Thanksgiving night incident in 2009, when Nordegren reportedly chased Woods with a golf club after confronting him. Uchitel claimed that Nordegren also reached out to her directly. “She called me and demanded answers,” Uchitel revealed. “It was a conversation I’ll never forget—she was furious, and rightfully so. She wanted to know the truth about her husband’s actions.”
