Who is Vanessa Trump? What to Know About Tiger Woods Girlfriend
It seems Tiger Woods has a new lady in his life. Just this week, he posted a photo of himself and a beautiful blond woman on Instagram– both in matching white tops.
The caption read, “Love is in the air and life is better with you by my side.” Needless to say, since its Tiger Woods’ girlfriend, people were interested to find out more– we’re talking hundreds of thousands of people who were curious to learn more.
Tiger Woods' Girlfriend: Who is She?
If you’re wondering if there’s any relation to “the” Trump family, the answer is yes. Vanessa is the former wife of Donald Trump, Jr., with whom she shares five beautiful children. The two began dating in 2003 and officially divorced in 2018.
It’s unclear how Tiger and Vanessa met, or what prompted the announcement, especially because it went on to say, “At this time, we would appreciate privacy for all those close to our hearts.” But rumors had started swirling in gossip magazines in recent weeks. So, perhaps they were trying to get out ahead of it all.
In the Instagram post, the first image is of the two of them in plain, white tees– his a golf polo, hers a sleeveless top. They both look happy. The second photo is of the two of them lounging in a hammock somewhere, looking rather loved up.
With over 450,000 likes within one day and nearly 10,000 comments, the post has received quite a bit of traction. For the most part, people are happy for the pro golfer. Others wonder why the public announcement– followed by the request for privacy.
Privacy In His Personal Life
Everyone remembers the story of Tiger Woods’ wife, Elin Nordegren. In 2009, he ended up admitting to multiple infidelities and entering a 45-day treatment program for sex addiction. To no surprise, the pair divorced in 2010.
Since then, he’s remained relatively private about his dating life. He spent two years with gold medal Olympian Lindsey Vonn. Then, he spent about a year with stylist Kristin Smith before dating restaurant manager Erica Herman for five years.
It’s hard not to take an interest in a man who’s so uniquely talented. He’s won 15 professional major golf championships, trailing only Jack Nicklaus, and 82 PGA Tour events. As a result, he leads all active golfers in career wins and PGA Tour wins. And, if you’re wondering, “How old is Tiger Woods?” he’s only 49 – quite a feat for a man of Tiger Woods’ age.
Less is known about Vanessa’s personal life. Although she went through a contested divorce with Donald Trump Jr. in 2019, it seems everything’s worked out in the end as they co-parent their five children together. Even Ivanka Trump chimed in on the Instagram post to wish the new couple well.
Success and Trauma
Tiger’s life is so fascinating because it’s absolutely brimming with equal parts success and trauma. He’ll go down in the history books, for sure. All we can do is wish him, Vanessa, and their families every happiness as they blend their families together.
