Tiger Woods shares shocking relationship announcement, confirming his romance with girlfriend Vanessa Trump, whom he’s been linked to since 2024. Their romance caught public attention last month when they graced a golf tournament in each other’s company. Weeks later, a source confirmed that the golf legend and Donald Trump Jr’s ex-wife have indeed been an item since the Thanksgiving of 2024. The pair reportedly went out of their way to keep the romance on the low, opting for cozy in-house dates in Woods’ Palm Beach pad over romantic outings. Regardless, those closest to them, especially their respective families, have long known about their low-key relationship, respecting their decision to keep things under wraps.
Things have quickly progressed between the two lovebirds, making them ready to share their beautiful romance with the world.

Vanessa Trump Slammed For Questionable Taste in Men Amid Woods Romance
Netizens also turned on Vanessa Trump, slamming her “terrible” taste in men. According to most, it took only someone with the bravest of heart to date the golf legend, given his scandalous cheating history. They suggested the 47-year-old was setting herself up for impending heartache because Woods’ infidelity would most likely rear its head into their blossoming romance. Via Reddit, many netizens pointed out that such men like Tiger Woods seemed to be Vanessa Trump’s “specific type,” given her controversial relationship history, featuring names like Donald Trump Jr, Latin King’s gangster Valentin Rivera, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Saudi prince Khalid bin Sultan Al Saud. A Reddit user pointed out,
“She tends to pick self-centered men who like to cheat.”
Another agreed,
“Right? My first thought was wow, she is a terrible picker.”
A third Reddit user wrote,
“A woman who willingly married a Trump and a man who cheated on his wife with what seemed like anything with legs. Sounds like a match made in heaven. I love to see those family values in action.”
A fourth noted,
“Her dating history is even crazier than just that lmaooo. Not only did she marry a Trump, she dated a Saudi prince whose dad was connected to the 9/11 attackers… Oh & before him she dated a Latin Kings gang member😭 & last but not least, her engagement to Jr. was a brand deal!! I pray we get a tell all book one day.”
Notably, Tiger Woods’s new girlfriend, Vanessa Trump, was married to Donald Trump Jr. from 2005 to 2018 and shares five children with him. Meanwhile, Woods’ affairs with different women made headlines in 2009 following his infamous car crash outside his Orlando-area home, leaving him seriously injured. The crash led to speculations that he had a confrontation with his then-wife, Elin Nordegren, over his infidelity.
The golfer’s attempt to clear the air only worsened as the press sprung into action, digging up his multiple affairs and making them public. He eventually admitted to cheating on his wife, with the two divorcing in August 2010. His golfing career also took a hit at the time, but the legend has since bounced back from the scandal. Regardless, his cheating escapades remain a stain on his otherwise pristine reputation.
