The official says 37-year-old Jill Kelley in Tampa, Florida, received the emails from Petraeus' biographer Paula Broadwell that triggered an FBI investigation.
The official was not authorised to discuss the case publicly and spoke on the condition of anonymity.
Another person who knows Kelley and Petraeus confirmed their friendship and said she saw him often.
