Tiger Woods is going through one of the most emotionally difficult periods of his life. The golf legend, 50, who recently returned home to Jupiter in Florida after six weeks of treatment overseas following a car crash and DUI charge, is now dealing with a deeply personal blow as his girlfriend Vanessa Trump, 48, has been diagnosed with breast cancer.
According to an insider, Woods has been 'devastated' by the news, adding a painful new chapter to what has already been an incredibly turbulent year for him.
Vanessa Trump shared the news herself through an Instagram statement, writing, “I want to share a personal health update. I've recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. While this isn't news anyone expects, I'm working closely with my medical team on a treatment plan.”
She confirmed she had already undergone a procedure earlier in the week but did not share details about the stage of the cancer or the specifics of her treatment plan ahead.
The post drew an outpouring of support online, including a public response from Ivanka Trump, who wrote beneath the post, “Praying for your continued strength and a swift recovery. Love you mama.”
Despite everything, sources close to the couple say their relationship remains strong.
