Rachel Uchitel runs off set of 'Celebrity Rehab'

There's more drama on the set of Celebrity Rehab: Rachel Uchitel told producers “I quit” and left the set to stay at a big-money hotel, RadarOnline reports. Dealing with reality and your own addiction to infamy can be so taxing!

Tiger Woods’ former No. 1 mistress was talking about her self-esteem issues and her pill addiction when she got so stressed out she took off for the L’Ermitage Hotel in Beverly Hills, the website says: “After a very intense day of filming, Rachel just couldn’t handle being at the Pasadena Recovery Center where Celebrity Rehab is filmed, and she decided to leave,” a source said. But like all the other PRC guests (except for Rodney King, bless his heart), Uchitel will be back. The show’s producers chatted her up the next day and she agreed to return.

"Rachel simply needed some time away from the intense pressure and scrutiny that she is dealing with," the source said. Well, going out in public and saying you screwed around with the most popular athlete in the world isn't the kind of thing wallflowers do. Oh, and if you were hoping Rachel would dish on her time with Woods, don't hold your breath -- she isn’t legally allowed to talk about the golfer. We'll have to settle for rumor and misinformation instead.
