New York, Apr. 25 : Eliot Spitzer, the former Governor of New York, has been hit by further allegations about his sexual predilections in the wake of the prostitution ring scandal that led to his downfall.

Spitzer is now being linked to a second prostitute.

According to reports in the New York Post, federal investigators have uncovered the identity of the second woman - who remains nameless.

She is alleged to have corroborated the testimony of Ashley Alexandra Dupre, an amateur singer who was the first call girl to be linked to Spitzer.

In her conversations with investigators, the new informant told how the former governor was fond of using sex toys to enhance his own pleasure.

She also gave further details as to his specific sexual fetishes in graphic detail, "divulging that he a penchant for props," the Post reports.

The woman also added that he liked to keep his socks on during sex - something alleged previously by Republican operative Roger Stone.

Investigators tracked her down after reviewing records surrounding the original case, which erupted in March after the New York Times claimed he had been identified as a regular client of the Emperors Club VIP, a high-class call-girl service.

It is not known if Spitzer's second prostitute was linked to the Emperors Club.

Spitzer is understood to be spending time with wife Silda and their three children. (ANI)
