Estate agent Suzy Favor Hamilton worked as a prostitute to feel clean (photos)
LIKE nearly all Olympic athletes, Suzy Favor Hamilton’s body is for sale. Married mother Hamilton, 44, who competed as a middle-distance runner the US at the 1992, 1996 and 2000 Olympics, has worked as prostitute called ‘ Kelly Lundy’ with Haley Heston’s Private Collection. Her rates were billed at $600 per hour, or $6,000 for 24-hours.
In another life she works as an estate agent in Madison, Wisconsin. We should not overlook the notion that Hamilton worked as a prostitute to feel clean and better about herself.
She tells TheSmokingGun.com:
“I take full responsibility for my mistakes. I’m not the victim and I’m not going that route. I’m owning up to what I did. I would not blame anybody except myself. Everybody in this world makes mistakes. I made a huge mistake. Huge.”
Her mistake was telling clients that she used to run. One of them blabbed.
“He totally broke all the rules by outing me…I don’t want to be like him. Because he is scum. And I will not become scum to make myself feel good. I will not do it. I would suffer rather than go that route of being vindictive.”
Not every pro sports star gets their rates so publicly advertised. With fame, she could raise her rates, put them on a par with those fine athletes who sell their body to advertise junk food and managed debt.
