Jose Mourinho lived with a stunning blonde mistress behind his wife’s back !

CHELSEA soccer hero Jose Mourinho lived with a stunning blonde mistress behind his wife’s back for two years, The Sun reported today. The ex-Blues boss, 44, called Elsa Sousa his “Princess”, showered her with gifts and told her she was his one true love. The 34-year-old even shared a flat with “The Special One”. Players at top Portuguese side FC Porto thought she was coach Jose’s wife — until the real Mrs Mourinho turned up.

Hunk Mourinho lived up to his nickname The Special One as he and his mistress made love for hours — to the music of rock star Sting. The romps took place during a two-year affair with beautiful Elsa. A pal of 34-year-old Elsa said: “They did very saucy things together. Mourinho is a very sexual man. He particularly likes making love to Sting.” The former Chelsea boss, whose shock exit last month stunned fans, called Elsa his “Princess” and showered her with gifts — and even let her decide which club he should work for.

But his wife Matilde, whom he married in 1989, had no idea he was leading a double life. Mourinho, 44, met blonde Elsa while coaching small-town team Leiria in his native Portugal. He took her with him to FC Porto, his first big job — where the pair lived for eight months in a flat arranged by the club. Mourinho even introduced her as his wife to players and agents.

He went to coach in Leiria, 90 miles north of Lisbon, in 2001. Matilde stayed in their home town of Setabul with their daughter and son. But within months Mourinho had launched a full-blown affair with Elsa. He asked her to dinner in 2001 after popping into the small fashion store she owned. He told her she was “the most beautiful girl he had ever met”, and that he had moved to the town and did not know many people. Within weeks, she was telling people Mourinho was “the one”.

He sent Elsa love letters and was frequently seen kissing her in public, dining her, and schmoozing her with “baby-talk”. He even whisked her away for a steamy holiday in Monaco.

When The Sun put the relationship to Elsa in Leiria, she said: “Yes, yes, it’s all true.” She then met us again with Luzia Palmas, a former Benfica lawyer and colleague of Mourinho for four years. Luzia said: “He treated Elsa badly by promising her they would be together properly. “Mourinho conducted the relationship in front of everyone’s noses. In Leiria and in Porto, football colleagues all thought Elsa was his wife. He lived with her.”

Elsa started attending matches with Mourinho, as his wife. Under Mourinho’s direction the unfashionable mid-table team achieved their highest-ever league position, finishing in fifth place. As a result the colourful coach caught the eye of footie bigwigs throughout the country. In January 2002 he moved to Porto having rejected Benfica — and Elsa went with him. Mourinho introduced her to all the football agents and players as his partner.

After they moved into a flat together in Porto, Elsa lived with Mourinho for eight months. But in late 2002, his wife Matilde dropped the bombshell that she was moving to Porto, as the children were suffering from being away from their father.

Mourinho was forced to move Elsa out and be a family man again. But before Matilde arrived he took Elsa to Monaco — where he showered her with gifts and they made love all day. He begged her to continue their relationship — offering to buy her a house so they could continue their affair in secret. But her pal said: “Elsa announced she couldn’t cope with being the other woman. She told us, ‘I want a whole man, not a half. I can’t live like that’.” Mourinho carried on seeing Elsa into 2003 — even after his wife and family moved to Porto. The pal said: “Elsa then moved back to Leiria. She was devastated. Elsa told pals she last spent the night with Mourinho at the end of 2003. He joined Chelsea in 2004. (The Sun)
