On the one hand, the coupling up of Tiger Woods and Vanessa Trump sounds like pop culture Mad Libs. On the other, it’s 2025 and anything goes!
The golf pro, 49, and the ex-wife of Donald Trump Jr., 47, have been “quietly dating for several months,” People reported on March 13. And in case you were wondering how Don Jr. felt about the relationship, the outlet reports that he’s “cool” with it.
Both Tiger Woods and Vanessa Trump currently reside in Florida, which is presumably where they met. In a 2023 interview, Woods said he didn’t realize how large his Florida estate—reportedly worth $54 million—was until he tried to navigate it on crutches following his horrific 2021 car crash in California. (Woods is a billionaire worth $1.8 billion according to Forbes.) He’s still playing golf, though he’s currently recovering after rupturing his achilles tendon earlier this week.
His political affiliations are unclear, however, Woods received a medal of honor from President Trump on February 20 and was the president’s special guest to a Black History Month event at the White House. Givenhe’s both a billionaire and a golfer, I’m a little surprised Trump hasn’t offered him a cabinet position yet.
Vanessa Trump and President Trump’s eldest son were married for 12 years before their 2018 divorce. They share five children, including 17-year-old daughter Kai Trump, who will join the University of Miami golf team later this year. Per People, Woods, Vanessa, and Kai attended a golf tournament together on February 16.
