Kissing passionately, this is Tiger Woods’ former mistress Rachel Uchitel with her new boyfriend – married lawyer Ed Batts, 47, who dumped his wife and her three children five days before Christmas to be with the former nightclub hostess.
Exclusive DailyMail.com video shows the pair canoodling at the Denver airport on December 13, as they made their way home from an illicit weekend at a luxury hotel in Jackson Hole, Wyoming where he picked up the $1,200 tab, down to a hairbrush and Tampax.
A week later, balding Batts left his wife of six years and her kids from a previous marriage behind in San Diego, California, for a new life in West Palm Beach, Florida with Uchitel, 45, and her eight-year-old daughter Wyatt.
He now lives in a rented three-bedroom town home across the street from Uchitel’s apartment block, although the two spend most of their time together and have been photographed repeatedly by DailyMail.com while enjoying their new life.

Both Batts and Uchitel denied they were dating to DailyMail.com. Batts also denied that he moved to Florida to be with Uchitel.
But on Sunday, Uchitel, who used to own a children’s boutique named after her daughter in New York City, was seen getting out of Batts’ distinctive Porsche Cayenne SUV outside her home.
She will appear in upcoming HBO documentary Tiger, which airs on January 10 and January 17, where she discusses her affair with the golfer. ‘Here he was, in my bed, and he was my Tiger,’ she says in the trailer.
The 45-year-old added: ‘After all this stuff that has out about the scandal, I felt that at some point, I needed to remove the shackles of what it’s like not to have a voice […] I don’t think people really get that.’
Meanwhile Batts has been pictured walking her dog and spending time with her daughter Wyatt, as well as getting to know the area with a visit to a local CVS pharmacy.
The pair have also been photographed repeatedly dipping in and out of each other’s homes.
In an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, Batts’ devastated wife Robyn, 59, claims he began an affair with Uchitel at the end of November after meeting her online and walked out less than a month later – leaving her heartbroken.
Batts had kept his plan to leave secret – shipping his Porsche to Florida days before his departure, with Robyn claiming he told her it was at the dealership to be repaired.
Court filings seen by DailyMail.com show Batts filed for divorce on December 17.
She only realized he was leaving her on December 19 when he boarded a red-eye flight to Florida and allegedly closed their family bank account – leaving her with no access to family funds.
Robyn said: ‘It’s such a huge betrayal. The kids are devastated. They wanted him there at Christmas and he wasn’t there.
‘They didn’t want gifts and they didn’t want friends coming around to support us – they just wanted their dad at Christmas.’
Uchitel is notorious for her part in the affair that ended golfer Woods’ marriage to Swedish model Elin Nordegren in 2009
The fling came to light after a furious Nordegren discovered steamy texts from Uchitel on Woods’ phone and chased him from their home with a golf club, only for him to crash into a fire hydrant and his neighbor’s tree
Uchitel later said she regretted the affair, telling the Mail on Sunday in 2010: ‘I plunged headfirst into relationships which I should never have been in. I will never, ever do that [sleep with a married man] again’
Rachel Uchitel’s former flames
Rachel Uchitel shot to infamy when she was at the center of Tiger Woods’ cheating scandal in 2009.
But she’s been linked to other well-known men, including MLB star Derek Jeter.
Uchitel was previously engaged to investment banker James Andrew O’Grady, who tragically died in the 9/11 attacks in New York City.
A photo of her clutching O’Grady’s missing person report was published on the New York Post’s front cover.
In 2004, she married Steven Ehrenkranz – an old friend she knew from private school. However, they divorced four months later.
She claimed in a previous interview that she met Tiger Woods while dating Derek Jeter in 2008.
Bones actor David Boreanaz admitted he had cheated on his wife while she was pregnant with Uchitel in 2010.
She married former football star Matt Hahn in 2011. He fathered their daughter Wyatt during a short marriage that ended in 2014.
Surprisingly, Uchitel was linked to billionaire heir Jamie Dingman – who would later go on to date Woods’ ex-wife Elin Nordegren in 2011.
Most recently, she was linked to Real Housewives of New York playboy and real estate investor Harry Dubin in August.
She added: ‘He canceled the bank account and left town. I don’t know what we’re going to do. I feel so sideswiped.
‘This came out of nowhere so I’m still in shock. I’m really still in shock. He’s down there spending it large with Rachel.’
Robyn was newly widowed when she met Batts in 2012. Then living in Colorado, she had three small children and was swept off her feet by the now 47-year-old.
Less than a year later, Batts asked her to move in with him in San Diego.
The couple later bought a five-bedroom $5.5m Spanish-style property where they have lived since their 2014 wedding.
According to Robyn, he was also willing to be a father to her children, now aged 20, 15 and 14, who barely knew their biological dad due to his untimely death from cancer.
She says she had no idea that anything was wrong with her marriage until she noticed Batts becoming cold and aloof around Thanksgiving.
The mother-of-three said: ‘I noticed he was treating us badly. Angry. Didn’t have any time for us. At Thanksgiving, I noticed he couldn’t wait to get up from the table.
‘Then on December 5, we all went to get a Christmas tree together and we spent two days doing decorations. He didn’t seem very interested in it.’
Robyn believes it was around then that he met Uchitel, who is notorious for her part in the affair that ended golfer Woods’ marriage to Swedish model Elin Nordegren in 2009.
The infamous fling came to light after a furious Nordegren discovered steamy texts from Uchitel on Woods’ phone and chased him from their home with a golf club, only for him to crash into a fire hydrant and his neighbor’s tree.
Uchitel later said she regretted the affair, telling the Mail on Sunday in 2010: ‘I plunged headfirst into relationships which I should never have been in. I will never, ever do that [sleep with a married man] again.’
But she wasn’t being entirely truthful: at the time of the interview, she was already embroiled in another affair, this time with Angel actor David Boreanaz whose wife was pregnant at the time.
The following year, she married former football star Matt Hahn who fathered their daughter Wyatt during a short marriage that ended in 2014.

Of Uchitel, Robyn is scathing, saying: ‘I just have no words for someone like that. People like that don’t change. I don’t want to stoop to her level. I just don’t believe that women should mess with married men and she’s constantly doing it’

Robyn says Uchitel began speaking regularly on the phone with Batts beginning December 5 – some of which she overheard.
He told her Uchitel was nothing more than a college friend and nothing to worry about but on December 10, Batts left for a weekend away.
The corporate lawyer, who works for Palo Alto law firm Gibson and Dunn, told his wife and children that he was planning a peaceful weekend alone in the Midwest, Robyn said.
But he had other plans: instead, he traveled to Jackson Hole for a weekend with Uchitel – meeting her at Denver airport before traveling on together.
A hotel receipt seen by DailyMail.com shows how Batts splashed out $1,234 on dinners for Uchitel during their weekend at the five-star Amangani resort, as well as buying her Tampax and a hairbrush.
After returning home to San Diego, Batts continued to speak to Uchitel up to 10 times a day, according to Robyn.
On December 18, he shipped his car to Florida. The next day, after finally telling his family of his plans, Batts followed on a red-eye flight.

Devastated Robyn is now planning to file for divorce and says this is the end of her marriage to Batts. Pictured: Batts with Uchitel’s daughter
Robyn said: ‘He talked to my kids – my daughter was really upset. She’s 14. Then he left on the red-eye.
‘He said that he needed some time to think and he wasn’t sure he wanted to stay married. It was kind of like a 50-50 thing for him.
‘He said that Rachel was just a friend and she had nothing to do with anything. He was not going to see her and she was just a friend. After he left, I found out he was with Rachel.’
Devastated Robyn says this is the end of her marriage to Batts.
Of Uchitel, she is scathing, saying: ‘I just have no words for someone like that. People like that don’t change. I don’t want to stoop to her level.
‘I just don’t believe that women should mess with married men and she’s constantly doing it.’
