Not unforeseeable
Dec 16th, 2009 by admin
The AP is reporting that Tiger’s wife Elin is seeking divorce.
Citing ABC News, NBC News and People Magazine, the story reports that Elin Nordegren Woods intends to end her marriage to golfer Tiger Woods. Given the volume of news reports about his infidelity, as well as his own admission, it’s not a surprising choice.
An interesting side note is that Ms. Woods is also planning to renegotiate her prenuptial agreement. Some details of the rewritten prenup have been publicized, including an immediate payment to Ms. Woods of $5 million to an account under her sole control and a potential payment of $55 million if she were to stay with Tiger for two more years. Splitting on these financial terms, however, would necessitate that Ms. Woods maintain the appearance of a supportive wife (including showing up at social events and in public) and that she sign a non-disclosure agreement. Given reports that she’s been seen in public without her wedding ring, it’s hard to know what will happen.
