Tiger Woods and Vanessa Trump are reportedly “still very much in love” after the pro golfer’s latest DUI car crash.
A source told People on Sunday the couple was “happy to see each other” after Woods returned home to Jupiter, Florida, on Wednesday following his six-week inpatient treatment program in Switzerland.
“They kept in touch while he was away,” a second insider shared. “Both of them have responsibilities outside of their personal lives and that factors [into] how much time they can spend together.”
The second source said since the pair share their respective children with their exes, “they have had enough time to keep the romance going.”
Woods, 50, is dad to daughter Sam Alexis, 18, and son Charlie, 17, with ex-wife Elin Nordegren, while Trump, 48, shares five children — Kai, 19, Donald, 17, Tristan, 14, Spencer, 13, and Chloe, 11 — with ex-husband Donald Trump Jr.
The first source said in the wake of Woods’ DUI crash and rehab stint, Trump “is eager to help him continue with his progress and move beyond any more public scandals — which they both dislike intensely.”
But the insider also noted that while Trump has been “super supportive and positive” to the famous athlete, she has a full life outside of their relationship.
“Vanessa is a busy mom, which for the most part does not get in the way of the overall vibe of her relationship with Tiger, [who is] also busy with his life, golf, charity, video game work projects and kids,” the source explained.
According to one of the insiders, Woods and Trump’s mutual love for golf has helped them get through “the hard times,” including Woods’ latest DUI incident.
A source told People that Woods “took his trip seriously and is all about continuing his recovery and putting this chapter behind him.”
On March 27, Woods was arrested and charged with a DUI after he was involved in a rollover car crash in Jupiter Island, Florida.
At the scene, he was caught with pills in his pocket and failed several sobriety tests.
The athlete — who has a long history of car crashes — appeared in court on March 31, where he pleaded not guilty.
That same day, Woods released a statement confirming he would be seeking treatment.
“This is necessary in order for me to prioritize my well-being and work toward lasting recovery,” he wrote.
Woods added: “I’m committed to taking the time needed to return in a healthier, stronger, and more focused place, both personally and professionally.”
