Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren were married for almost six years before their widely publicized split in 2010. Elin Nordegren is not just Tiger Woods’ ex-wife — she’s also his friend.
The Swedish-born former model was married to the professional golfer, with whom she shares two children, for nearly six years before their divorce in 2010, amid reports of Woods’ infidelity. Eight years later, sources revealed to PEOPLE that despite their history, they had evolved into co-parents and close friends.
“They’re friends now,” said the source. “Everything that happened in the past is behind them. They both chose to be mature and prioritize the kids. So, they have a great relationship. Tiger speaks highly of Elin and never has anything negative to say about her. … The kids adore them both.”
