Mar. 25, 2010— -- Jesse James' marital troubles continue to grow.

Three women have now come forward claiming they had affairs with the custom motorcycle builder while he was married to actress Sandra Bullock. In addition, details of a 2007 sexual harassment case he settled with a female employee who claimed James made repeated sexual advances, including sexual acts, toward her, have also surfaced.

Gloria Allred, whose firm represented the former high-level executive at James' custom bike shop West Coast Choppers who alleged harassment, declined to comment to ABCNews.com.

James' rep also declined to comment to ABCNews.com.

The former executive claimed the harassment took place between 2006 and 2007, a year after James married Bullock, 45, according to TMZ, which said it obtained a copy of the settlement documents.

In one suggestive e-mail that is purportedly between the two and TMZ said is included in the file, James, 40, wrote, "Need anything before I split?" The woman responded, "Some Tums."

James replied, "I have some special fluid that you can drink and it makes it all better."

TMZ reported that the former executive also claims she kept a T-shirt with evidence of a sexual encounter with James.

The employee quit in 2007 and hired Allred's firm to represent her. No lawsuit was filed but the woman settled the matter with James later that year for $725,000. According to TMZ, in the settlement documents, James neither admitted nor denied the allegations.

James and his troubled marriage have been under scrutiny since last week when tattoo model Michelle "Bombshell" McGee went public with what she claimed was an 11-month affair with James.

A second woman, stripper Melissa Smith, has claimed she had a two-year affair with the celebrity biker starting in 2006. Like McGee, Smith is heavily tattooed.

Smith has said that after she traveled to California to meet James, they began a sexual relationship that continued for two years.
