UNDATED, WI (WTAQ) - Former U.S. Olympian Suzy Favor Hamilton is confirming she led a double life, saying she made, quoting here, “a huge mistake.”

She apparently led a secret life as a $600 an hour escort in Las Vegas during what she calls a challenging period in her marriage and her life.

The story appears on “TheSmokingGun-dot-com.”

Favor says she is not a victim and is owning up to what she did. She says she doesn’t blame anyone but herself.

Favor competed in three Olympics after a star-studded career as a track star in Stevens Point and at the University of Wisconsin. She was a seven-time national champion and winner of nine different NCAA titles.

She says she has been seeking help from a psychologist in recent weeks.

She has been working as a motivational speaker.
