Vanessa Trump and Tiger Woods remain in a committed relationship following the golfer's high-profile DUI arrest on 27 March 2026.

Despite intense public speculation that the pair had drifted apart, sources close to the couple confirm they are standing strong. Reports from TMZ indicate that the duo has resolved the matter without conflict, focusing instead on getting the 15-time major champion back on a healthy path.

Vanessa is reportedly providing her full support as Woods prepares to step away from the public eye for professional treatment. The couple has been dating for over a year after initially meeting through their children at The Benjamin School in Florida. Vanessa is Donald Trump Jr.'s ex-wife; they have five children from their 12-year marriage.

TMZ confirmed that they've resolved the matter. They did talk about getting Tiger back on the right path, which includes the latter's plan to seek treatment.

Woods announced on Tuesday that he would be 'stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment and focus on my health. 'This is necessary in order for me to prioritise my well-being and work toward lasting recovery,' he added.

Ex-Husband Trump Jr. Raises Concerns

People quoting a source said that Trump Jr. had 'raised some concerns' following Woods' DUI incident. '[Don] knows Vanessa can make her own decisions, but they're a team when it comes to coparenting,' they said. 'He's just thankful Vanessa and the kids weren't involved.'

On 27 March, responders found Woods inside his toppled Land Rover along a residential road on Jupiter Island. Deputies noted that he was 'lethargic and slow' at the time, and he showed 'severe signs of impairment.'

Woods crashed his vehicle after clipping the back of a truck, according to the affidavit. 'The driver of [the pickup truck] looked in his mirror and saw a dark colored Land Rover overtaking him at high speeds,' it stated.

Woods told responders he was looking at his phone to change the radio station before the accident. After registering a 0.00 on the breathalyser, he refused to provide a urine sample for testing. He confirmed taking prescription medication earlier that day.

Two loose hydrocodone pills were found in his left pants pocket, according to the police affidavit. He was arrested after failing multiple sobriety tests conducted on the spot. He is charged with refusal to submit to a lawful test and DUI with property damage.

President Donald Trump, who maintains a close relationship with Vanessa, is optimistic about Tiger's recovery. 'It's a good thing that he's doing, ​but he's going to end up being terrific. He's ​a great guy,' he told Reuters. 'He's ⁠one of the greatest people I've known. He's a great ​champion ... he'll be fine.'

Tiger Woods' 2017 DUI Incident

Woods was involved in a similar incident in 2017, when Jupiter Police found him asleep while his car was running. He tested positive for five different drugs, including hydrocone, and was charged with reckless driving, improper stopping, and driving under the influence.

He served 50 hours of community service after pleading guilty to reckless driving. He also agreed to enter a DUI diversion program as part of the plea deal.

The 2026 charges are more complex, involving refusal to submit to a lawful test and DUI with property damage, given the nature of the Land Rover crash. By choosing to seek immediate treatment, Woods is attempting to mirror the proactive steps he took nearly a decade ago to salvage his career and public image. Vanessa's decision to stay by his side suggests a unified front as they navigate the legal and personal fallout of this repeat offence.
