Vanessa Trump has publicly expressed her support for her partner, professional golfer Tiger Woods, following his recent car crash and DUI arrest. The incident occurred on March 27 when Woods was involved in a rollover crash near his home in Jupiter Island, Florida.
In a gesture of solidarity, Vanessa, 48, took to her Instagram story on April 3 to share a heartfelt message. She posted a photograph of herself snuggled up with Woods in a hammock, alongside the simple statement, “Love you,” complemented by heart emojis. Notably, the image dates back to March 2025, when Woods first announced their relationship on social media.
Vanessa, who was married to Donald Trump Jr. for over a decade before their divorce in 2018, is a mother to five children, including her daughter Kai, who is 17. Meanwhile, Woods, aged 50, shares a son, Charlie, 16, and a daughter, Sam, 17, with his ex-wife, Elin Nordegren.
The golfer was arrested following the crash, where he passed a breathalyser test for alcohol but declined to provide a urine sample for further testing. Law enforcement officials reported finding two hydrocodone pills in his trousers. During the incident, Woods mentioned his extensive medical history, including seven back surgeries and numerous leg operations.
According to sources familiar with the situation, Vanessa’s support remains steadfast, but they noted that Woods can sometimes be challenging to be around due to the pain from his injuries. One insider suggested, “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. She is happy with him, and any issues they have are not about her.”
As the couple navigates their relationship, they reportedly bond over their shared connection to golf. An insider revealed, “They are good together as they both have golf in their lives. That propels the romance in a certain sense.”
However, there are concerns regarding Woods’ need for introspection as he copes with the pressures of his profession and personal struggles. A different source shared, “They are an intense couple. It’s serious, but Tiger has yet to look in the mirror and say, ‘You’re 50 years old and need to act like it.’”
The recent events have also stirred reactions from Vanessa’s ex-husband, Donald Trump Jr. Sources indicated that he is supportive of Vanessa and Woods’ relationship, especially regarding their shared responsibilities in co-parenting. “Don Jr. has been supportive of Tiger and Vanessa… but the recent situation raised some concerns for him,” the insider commented.
Despite his worries, Donald appreciates that Vanessa and their children were not directly involved in the incident. He understands Vanessa’s ability to make her own choices but remains focused on their co-parenting relationship. “He’s just thankful Vanessa and the kids weren’t involved,” the source added.
As Woods works through the repercussions of this incident, the couple appears to be holding strong in their relationship. Their bond may continue to evolve as they face both personal and professional challenges. Meanwhile, observers await to see how this latest chapter will impact their lives going forward.
