Rachel Uchitel has been accused of charming another married man, but this time it's Celebrity Rehab alum Jeremy London.
London's estranged wife Melissa has told friends she believes the Mallrats and Party of Five star is involved in a romantic relationship with Uchitel, Breaking Celebrity News has learned.
While he stopped short of denying a romance, London told Breaking Celebrity News he had a strong relationship with Tiger Woods’ former mistress, someone he describes as an “amazing, intelligent and sensitive person”.
“I’m very protective of Rachel because of our friendship,” London said.
“She’s been wrongfully persecuted by the media and because of what the media has done to me after I was nearly murdered, I relate to her.”
Jeremy and Melissa, who married in 2006, have had a rocky relationship. It reached its head when he was allegedly kidnapped, robbed and forced to smoke drugs during an ordeal in Palm Springs.
The pair, who were together that night, later checked into rehabilitation together.
London joined the crew of Dr. Drew’s Celebrity Rehab 4, while Melissa became an in-patient at Pasadena Recovery Center, to be treated for a prescription drug addiction.
Since completing treatment, however, the pair has separated but remained legally married.
“She said she had to get out of LA and the Hollywood scene,” a source told Breaking Celebrity News.
Another source told Breaking Celebrity News that Melissa flipped out on Jeremy after she confronted him about having a sexual relationship with Rachel Uchitel.
