Victoria Beckham London, Dec 15 (IANS) Angry and hurt Elin Nordegren is expected to have a heart-to-heart with Victoria Beckham in a bid to save her marriage to celebrity golfer Tiger Woods. But the unravelling of his philandering life continues, with a 31-year-old single mother now saying they had a six-month affair.
Cori Rist says Woods was a smooth-talker and got her sympathy by telling a sob story about his marriage with Elin being on the rocks, reports The Mirror.

“(He said) that he was not happy at home with his wife, that he would stay there because she was pregnant and they were expecting their first child,” mirror.co.uk quoted Rist, named as the golfer’s mistress, as saying.

Rist says that Woods, who has so far been linked with as many as 14 women around the US, including various waitresses, nightclub hostesses and porn stars, is not an honest guy.

“He has a way to make you believe that he is a very honest and good man. I’m not saying that he’s not a good man, but I don’t think he’s an honest man,” she said.

Rist, a stay at home single mother, thought she was the only “other woman” in his life until she woke up in the night to find him secretly texting someone else.

“I’d lay there and realised he would be having a conversation, so I suspected there were others. I asked who he was texting and he would say (he was) checking e-mails,” she said.

In her interview to the US television chat show “The Today Show”, she also apologised to Woods’ wife.

“I’m just sorry for her pain. I hate that I’m a part of it. I feel that I have to take responsibility for the things I’ve done. I can’t imagine the pain she is feeling right now.

“One day I’ll have to look my (seven-year-old) son in the face and explain all this.”

She said their affair came to an end in September when he complained he could not see enough of her. She claimed they had a physical relationship for six months after meeting in 2006, but remained friends for two years afterwards.

She decided to end it when she saw a picture of Woods, his wife, Elin, and their new daughter, Sam.

Woods has admitted to cheating on his wife after a string of women came forward alleging affairs in the wake of his Nov 27 late night car crash outside his Florida home.

Following the allegations and confession, Elin, who has been spotted without her wedding ring, had decided to move to Sweden with her children. But her friends have persuaded her to meet Victoria Beckham and take advice on the issue, reports The Sun.

Elin’s friends feel Victoria will be able to help her as the former Spice Girl’s own marriage to football star David Beckham was rocked five years ago by claims he had an affair with aide Rebecca Loos, reports thesun.co.uk.

“Elin should get advice from a person who has been through this sort of thing,” said a source.

Woods has been scorching the headlines since he crashed his car outside his house in the early hours of Nov 27 amid allegations of a massive fight between him and his wife, who apparently used a golf club to break the window on his car.
