Golf legend Tiger Woods 's friends have expressed doubts about the longevity of his relationship with Donald Trump 's former daughter-in-law Vanessa Trump .
The couple who recently made their relationship official are maintaining a low-key profile. The two were even missing from a Junior golf event where both their children Kai Trump and Charlie Woods were playing - in a bid to keep their relationship under wraps. Kai and Charlie are both students of the high-profile Palm Beach County school.
According to reports, Woods, 49 and Trump, 47, have been secretly dating since just before Thanksgiving, as per a Daily Mail report. The couple live 20 minutes apart in Palm Beach, Florida.
Posing a loved-up picture with Vanessa, Woods made their relationship official on social media. "Love is in the air and life is better with you by my side! We look forward to our journey through life together," the golf star wrote.
"At this time we would appreciate privacy for all those close to our hearts," he added.
How Trump family reacted
Ivanka Trump expressed her happiness by commenting - “So happy for you both!” on the post.
Donald Trump, when asked to comment on the couple's budding relationship, expressed his approval, while speaking to reporters in the Oval Office on Monday, March 31.
"I love Tiger and I love Vanessa," Trump said, adding that the golfer had called him "a few months ago."
"He and I have a very special, very good relationship with Tiger. I played golf with him a couple of times over the last month, and he's a fantastic guy and a fantastic athlete," Trump continued.
"He told me about it, and I said, 'Tiger, that's good, that's good.' I'm very happy for both. Just let them both be happy. Let them both be happy. They're both great," he said.
Why Woods's friends are not sure about their relationship
According to RadarOnline, Tiger Woods isn't in the best space currently, and his well-wishers are worried that Vanessa's outgoing character might lead to issues in the relationship.
"Tiger is in a very vulnerable state right now," an insider told the outlet. "The last few years have been incredibly tough. And Vanessa's a real dynamo. She lives a very fast-paced lifestyle and there are concerns he won't be able to keep up with her.
Why their relationship may not work
The insider notes that Woods has a low-key life, while Vanessa's is a jet-setter, and may not 'stick around' if she doesn't find things exciting.
"Tiger's not some old man who just sits around moping all day, but he does have a fairly low-key life. And Vanessa's known to be a real jet-setter. She's not someone who's going to stick around if she's not finding things exciting. Everyone's wondering how long it will be before she drops him like a hot rock."
Tiger isn't the same person as before. After his sex scandals ruined his marriage with Elin and even affected his golf career, he has been keeping things low-key as far as his love life is concerned.
Woods has also been suffering from back and knee problems. The 2021 accident left him with a lot of health woes.
"The accident really shattered Tiger's confidence, and in a lot of ways he's just a shell of the guy he used to be," the insider told the outlet.
He's now recovering from Achilles surgery and reportedly Vanessa is helping him recover. But his friends aren't sure how long this will last.
