Ashley Dupré's married man has now confessed that he and the ex-call girl had a month-long affair, contradicting his earlier statements that Dupre had "set him up."
"I'm very ashamed," Thomas 'TJ' Earle told the NYPost through his attorney. "TJ never said he was set up. He does not feel used by Ashley one bit," said Earle's attorney, Mitchell Ansell.
Dupré, 23, and Earle, 35, were seen leaving the Gramercy Park Hotel July 23, after having spent the previous day together drinking, dining, shopping and canoodling in limos around the Big Apple. The pair reportedly rented a room on July 22, where they retreated after a day of sightseeing and relaxing.
TJ, who is the vice president of the Earle Companies in Freehold, N.J., has two children with his wife Alisa Earle, and lives a mere 1.6 miles from Dupré's family home. Earle had told Alisa, 35, that he was going on a business trip to Colorado when, in fact, he was escorting Dupre around Manhattan.
During their 24-hour Manhattan romp, Dupre and Earle visited the Trump Tower, Bergdorf Goodman and dined at an upscale Meatpacking district restaurant. The duo was then spotted returning to the Gramercy following their intimate dinner.
Meanwhile, Dupré was recently sued by Amber Arpaio, a New Jersey dental assistant, for identity theft, invasion of privacy and defamation. Arpaio, 26, claims Dupré illegally used her driver's license to convince a Girls Gone Wild producer that she was old enough to be filmed back in 2003.
Dupré gained global notoriety in March, when then-New York State Governor Eliot Spitzer resigned two days after news surfaced that he had been caught on a federal wiretap arranging to meet Dupré, then a high-priced prostitute, at a Washington hotel. Spitzer had been governor for only 16 months.
Dupré was granted immunity by federal prosecutors in exchange for agreeing to testify against Spitzer. The U.S. Attorney’s Office has temporarily delayed criminal proceedings against Spitzer pending an IRS investigation to determine if he misspent public funds while patronizing illegal prostitution rings such as the Emperors Club VIP, where Dupré worked as a high-priced hooker.
