World Exclusive: Rachel Uchitel Shares Her Side of Tiger Woods Story

Considering her job as a night club promoter Rachel Uchitel is no stranger to celebrity. But last week, she found herself thrust into the spotlight, as the first of many women accused of having an affair with married golf icon Tiger Woods. Though she was originally scheduled to discuss her relationship in a press conference on Dec. 3, she instead opted to avoid the media — until now. In the new issue of OK!, Rachel invites only OK! into her NYC apartment, and reveals the truth about the woman behind the headlines.

For more on Rachel, the obstacles she’s overcome in her life (including losing her fiancé in the 2001 World Trade Center attacks) and what she’s looking forward to in her future, pick up the new issue of OK!.
