Tiger Woods has confirmed that he is in a relationship with Vanessa Trump, who is the ex-wife of Donald Trump Jr. Woods shared two photos on social media with a caption declaring, “Love is in the air.”
Recently, Woods and Vanessa Trump, along with her daughter Kai, were spotted at Torrey Pines in San Diego. Woods was present at the venue to present the trophy to the winner of the Genesis Invitational as he is the tournament host.
Kai Trump attends the Benjamin School where Woods’ children, Sam and Charlie, also study. Interestingly, Charlie and Kai participated in a prestigious junior golf tournament together this week.
“Love is in the air and life is better with you by my side! We look forward to our journey through life together,” Woods said on X, where he has 6.4 million followers.
He added: “At this time we would appreciate privacy for all those close to our hearts.”
One photo shows Woods and Vanessa Trump posing together, another with them lying in a hammock with her arm draped across his chest as he gazes skyward.
Woods and Vanessa Trump had been featured in gossip outlets for the last several weeks. She was married to Donald Trump Jr. for 12 years. They had five children together.
Woods announced March 11 that he ruptured his left Achilles tendon, knocking him out of the Masters and likely for the rest of the year.
It was not clear what prompted Woods, who keeps his personal life fiercely private, to publish photos confirming the relationship. It was reminiscent of 2013, when he and Lindsey Vonn both posted photos of them together to confirm they were dating.
Woods said at the time he and Vonn “wanted to limit the ‘stalkarazzi’ and all those sleazy websites that are out there following us,” saying it could lead to dangerous situations involving his children. He also said their photos would devalue anything the paparazzi had.
Woods has two children from his marriage to Elin Nordegren, who divorced him 2010 after he had been exposed for multiple extramarital affairs.
His only other public relationship was with Erica Herman, which lasted about seven years until he ended it in October 2022. It was a messy split, and Herman eventually dismissed lawsuits against Woods and the trust that owns his south Florida estate, where she had been living.
