A former U.S. Olympic athlete's seedy secret double life has been blown wide open, after it was revealed she has been working as a $600-an-hour call girl, and RadarOnline.com has all the shocking details.
Suzy Favor-Hamilton, 44, began working for premier Las Vegas escort service Haley Heston in December under the alias Kelly Lundy regularly booking dates in Sin City, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Houston.
But Favor-Hamilton wasn't shy to reveal her real identity to clients – often boasting about her days as an Olympic long-distance runner who competed in the 1992, 1996 and 2000 Olympics.
Her hooker secret was blown last month, however, after the toned and fit blonde was confronted about her double life by a reporter in the lobby of a Las Vegas hotel, and she confessed to her work as "Kelly."
"I take full responsibility for my mistakes. I'm not the victim and I'm not going that route," she told the Smoking Gun, who broke the bombshell exclusive. "I'm owning up to what I did. I would not blame anybody except myself." She added, "Everybody in this world makes mistakes. I made a huge mistake. Huge."
Favor-Hamilton, married to her childhood sweetheart Mark, said her 44-year-old husband was well aware of her escort work but, "He tried, he tried to get me to stop. He wasn't supportive of this at all."
She described her role as a hooker as being "exciting" and a diversion away from the routine that had become her life. Favor-Hamilton operates a successful Madison, Wisc. real estate brokerage with her other half, as well as delivering motivational speeches and doing promotional work for businesses and groups, including Disney's running series and Wisconsin's Potato & Vegetable Growers Association.
Photos on the Haley Heston website showed Favor-Hamilton as "Kelly" posing in sexy lingerie and heels inside various Las Vegas hotel rooms, often with her back to the camera.
In her profile, she reveals her rates, from $600 for one hour to $6,000 for a 24-hour period. Additionally, clients are charged an extra $300 for a particular sex act that was deemed illegal in 14 U.S. States right up until 2003.
"I met Haley with the idea of fulfilling a fantasy and only doing it for the short term," she wrote on her profile.
"Well, after my first date, I was hooked, and have been doing my best to visit Las Vegas as often as my schedule allows (I run my own business in my real world life).
"Discretion is EXTREMELY important to me, hence you will only see blurred photos of my face on this site. I know this is not ideal, but I hope you understand that it is essential for me."

In the profile, which has since been deleted, Favor-Hamilton went on to describe herself as a "workout fanatic" who enjoyed skiing, biking, hiking, running marathons and traveling.
She also shared that she is bisexual and happy to provide services for couples: "Working with couples requires special skill and I pride myself in my ability to make a woman feel comfortable and not threatened in any way. A date with me will NEVER feel rushed."
Since the story broke, Favor-Hamilton has taken to defending her actions on her Twitter page.
She wrote: "I realize I have made highly irrational choices and I take full responsibility for them. I am not a victim here and knew what I was doing.
"I was drawn to escorting in large part because it provided many coping mechanisms for me when I was going through a very challenging time with my marriage and my life. It provided an escape from a life that I was struggling in. It was a double life.
"I do not expect people to understand, but the reasons for doing this made sense to me at the time and were very much related to depression."
She added: "I cannot emphasize enough how sorry I am to anyone I have hurt as a result of my actions and greatly appreciate the support from family and those closest to me. I fully intend to make amends and get back to being a good mother, wife, daughter, and friend."
