Tiger Woods and Vanessa Trump have reportedly set a specific boundary in their relationship following the announcement that they are officially together.
Throughout his career, Woods has been a prominent figure in golf, yet his personal life has experienced its share of challenges.
This year, Woods confirmed that he is romantically involved with Vanessa Trump, the former spouse of Donald Trump Jr. Their relationship was made public through a ‘hard launch’ on social media.
Both living in Palm Beach, Florida, they are just a short 20-minute drive apart. However, despite going public with their romance, there is a distinct rule they have both decided to follow.
Navigating a relationship in the public eye is quite different when both individuals are well-known.
They reportedly enjoy spending time together at home with takeout, movies, and family time. But what is the rule they have agreed upon?
They have agreed not to engage in significant public displays of affection while out.
An insider revealed to the Daily Mail: “Movie nights, binge-watching shows, eating takeout – that makes them happy. They’re honestly just like everyone else in their dating life.”
“When they do go out in public, like they have for two different golf tournaments, they lay off the PDA. Tiger has done a lot of crazy things with people, flown around the world. So has Vanessa. It can be a lot.
“Now it’s nice to have someone who wants to stay home and chill. It’s a nice change for him.”
There were concerns from Woods’ friends about him dating Vanessa due to her ties to the Trump family and the potential political implications.
However, the source indicated that Woods has ‘always been publicly apolitical’, which could be interpreted as him taking a public position.
The source added: “He has his beliefs and opinions, of course, but he doesn’t make a public spectacle of his political leanings. And dating someone in a political family looks like he’s choosing a side.”
Their children, according to the insider, ‘understood’ the relationship and are ‘happy’ with it.
They elaborated that the concern regarding Woods entering this relationship was due to perceptions of his professional image. Despite family support, the couple has chosen to maintain discretion regarding public displays of affection.
