Vanessa Trump's feelings on boyfriend Tiger Woods emerge after his DUI arrest

Tiger Woods’ partner and ex-daughter-in-law of Donald Trump, Vanessa, has spoken out after the golfer was arrested on DUI charges on Friday (27 March).

On Friday, the 15-time major winner was involved in a car accident when his Land Rover clipped a truck at a “high rate of speed” on Jupiter Island, causing Woods’ vehicle to roll over.

Following the incident, officers said that Woods crawled out of the passenger-side door before he was breathalysed. The 50-year-old also refused to undertake a urine test.

Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek claimed that officers did not suspect Woods of alcohol impairment, with the golfer returning “triple zeros”.

Woods was charged with driving under the influence, property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test. It is unclear what alleged substance led to the DUI charge.

The golfer was detained for eight hours before being released on bail. No one was injured in the incident.

Since Woods’ arrest, several notable names have spoken publicly, with US President Trump saying that he “feels so badly” for the golfer before adding: “He’s got some difficulty. There was an accident and that’s all I know. He’s a very close friend of mine, he’s an amazing person, an amazing man. Some difficulty, I don’t want to talk about it.”

Woods is currently dating Vanessa, who was previously married to the President’s son, Donald Jr, before the pair divorced in 2018.

Following Friday’s incident, Vanessa’s alleged true feelings on Woods’ situation were reported by PEOPLE, with a source telling the outlet that she remains “happy” with her boyfriend despite having “her hands full sometimes”.

The pair have been dating for over a year.

“Vanessa and Tiger are in love,” the source told PEOPLE.

“She is very supportive of his golf endeavours because, despite his age and injuries, golf dominates Tiger’s life.

“They are good together as they both have golf in their lives. That propels the romance in a certain sense.

“She has her hands full sometimes, but Vanessa also has a life of her own and children to care for, so she isn’t around it all the time.”

Woods has previously dated Swedish model Elin Nordegren, as well as Erica Herman and Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn.

The 50-year-old has two children, a daughter named Sam and a son named Charlie, with ex-wife Nordegren, while Vanessa has five children – Kai, Donald, Tristan, Spencer and Chloe – with her ex-husband Donald Jr.

“She has her hands full sometimes, but Vanessa also has a life of her own and children to care for, so she isn’t around it all the time,” the source continued.

“She is happy with him and any issues they have are not about her. It’s dealing with his frustrations about playing great golf and his pain, which at times is really confining.

“Vanessa has settled right into their dating life due to the similarities in their current situations, with kids, great weather on their doorstep, golf in their lives, and school projects for their children.”
