Top 10 Mistresses
When María Belén Chapur admitted to being the object of South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford's affections, she instantly became one of history's famous mistresses
María Belén Chapur
Who, exactly, is the Argentine woman about whom South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford had waxed so poetically in his e-mail missives? A 41-year-old former TV reporter, Chapur admitted on June 28 to being Sanford's object of affection, but details about her remain hazy. A divorcée living in Buenos Aires with her two children, Chapur said someone "hacked" her e-mail last year. Her short statement asked for privacy and offered no further details about her life.
Post-affair: Chapur might be keeping quiet, but Sanford can't seem to shut up. In a June 30 interview with the Associated Press, he called Chapur his "soul mate," although he said he'd "try" to fall back in love with his wife.
Read a two-minute bio of Sanford.
