Breaking news from the intersection of politics, golf, and surprisingly civil ex-in-law relationships: Donald Trump has spoken on Vanessa Trump and Tiger Woods’ relationship, and he’s thrilled.
In a video posted to The White House’s YouTube channel (because where else would one discuss their ex-daughter-in-law’s love life?), Trump shared his thoughts on the high-profile romance.
“I love Tiger. I love Vanessa. Tremendous people, both of them. Absolutely tremendous,” Trump declared, presumably between bites of a well-done steak.
“He told me about it, and I said, ‘Tiger, that’s good, that’s good.’ Because it is good. It’s very good. It’s terrific,” he continued, clearly having just learned about the relationship five minutes prior.
For those keeping up with the ever-expanding Trump family tree, Vanessa was married to Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., from 2005 to 2018, producing five offspring—yes, five—because if there’s one thing the Trump family doesn’t do, it’s subtlety. Their children include Kai (17), Donald III (16), Tristan (13), Spencer (12), and Chloe (10), all of whom are now officially one degree of separation from Tiger Woods.
Tiger, 49, confirmed his relationship with Vanessa, 47, last month by going Instagram official—the 21st-century equivalent of renting a billboard on the highway. “Love is in the air and life is better with you by my side!” he gushed in his caption, making us all momentarily believe in love again.
The post concluded with a classic celeb plea: “At this time, we would appreciate privacy.” Because nothing says privacy like announcing your relationship to 2.8 million followers on Instagram.
Will there be a White House wedding? Will Don Jr. and Tiger have a tense golf showdown? Will Melania release a statement that just says, “I don’t care, do u?” Only time will tell. Stay tuned.
