Tiger Woods has made it official: he’s dating Vanessa Trump, the ex-wife of Donald Trump Jr.—and yes, you read that right.
The golf legend went public with his new relationship in a social media post that had all the sweetness of a Valentine’s Day Hallmark card. “Love is in the air and life is better with you by my side,” Woods posted Sunday on X, alongside two cozy photos with Vanessa. One had them beaming for the camera, arms wrapped around each other; the other featured Vanessa nestled into Tiger’s chest like they were posing for the cover of Modern Conservative Romance.
Love is in the air and life is better with you by my side! We look forward to our journey through life together. At this time we would appreciate privacy for all those close to our hearts. pic.twitter.com/ETONf1pUmI

Woods, 49, and Vanessa, 47, reportedly began as friends before Cupid pulled a fast one on them. According to Page Six, the pairing started heating up weeks ago—and now it’s serious. As one insider put it, “They’ve both gotten used to public scrutiny. They both know how to keep their private life private. They’re both parents.” Translation: no drama, no TMZ meltdowns, and no thirst traps.
It’s not just a tabloid fling. These two apparently share values, stability, and a healthy respect for staying out of the limelight unless absolutely necessary—something rare in modern celebrity romances, let alone political circles.
Even more surprising? Don Jr. is totally cool with it. Sources say he’s “fully supportive” of his ex-wife’s new romance, adding that as long as Tiger treats Vanessa and the kids with respect, there’s no issue. It doesn’t hurt that President Trump and Woods are longtime golf buddies and mutual admirers. Honestly, this match might’ve been brokered at Mar-a-Lago over 18 holes and a steak.
Vanessa and Don Jr. were married from 2005 to 2018 and share five kids. Woods has two children from his previous marriage to Elin Nordegren. After years of public drama, this new couple seems to be embracing peace and maturity—and maybe even some Sunday golf dates.
