ORLANDO, Fla. — It appears that Elin Nordegren needs her space from Tiger Woods.
The Swedish model has reportedly moved out of the couple’s Windermere, Fla. mansion in the wake of the golfer’s alleged infidelity, Radar Online reports.
Sources tell the site that the 29-year-old Nordegren has relocated to a nearby house. There has been speculation that she has been negotiating an immediate $5 million payout from Woods, while also revising their prenuptial agreement. At the time of their 2004 wedding, that prenup was believed to be worth $20 million. Now, she’s allegedly seeking up to $55 million if she stays married to Woods for at least two more years.
Woods has been under the microscope ever since a single-car accident outside his home on Nov. 27. The accident came two days after the National Enquirer published a story alleging that the 33-year-old golfer was having an affair with a New York nightclub manager named Rachel Uchitel. Uchitel has since denied the affair publicly, but is reportedly seeking a buyout to remain silent on their relationship.
Since the first affair allegation, several more women have stepped forward claiming to have engaged in sexual trysts with Woods, including former VH1 Tool Academy contestant Jaimee Grubbs.
Last week, the PGA star admitted to “transgressions,” but did not elaborate in a statement released on his Web site.
“I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart,” said Woods. “I have not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves. I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect. I am dealing with my behavior and personal failings behind closed doors with my family. Those feelings should be shared by us alone.”
