EXCLUSIVE: Tiger And Wife No Longer Talking To Each Other
May 17 2010, Published 3:40 p.m. ET
Tiger Woods and his wife Elin are no longer speaking to each other, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.
Both have hired divorce lawyers and things have gotten so bad that the couple uses intermediaries to communicate, a source close to both of them told RadarOnline.com.
Both have been very careful to keep their two children as protected as possible from their deteriorating relationship. But instead of arguing, they simply ignore each other.
“Elin has the nannies take the children back and forth,” one source told RadarOnline.com about how the children are moved to and from Tiger and Elin’s home. Elin moved out of the home they shared and into a rented house about a mile away.
Recently, one of Tiger’s employees spent 20 minutes with Elin at her house, going over upcoming logistics and schedules, RadarOnline.com learned exclusively.
“They’ve had no conflict over the children but they’ve also had no contact,” the source said. “Elin has made it very clear this is the way she wants it.”
When Tiger announced his return to golf, Elin believed it proved he wasn’t sincere about changing his life, the source said. Before that, the couple had been talking to each other, had dinner together several times, and even shared a brief kiss in public, igniting brief hope that the marriage could be saved.
Despite the fact that both have divorce lawyers, they tried to save the marriage and Elin even participated in Tiger’s sex addiction rehab program.

But in the past few weeks, as RadarOnline.com was first to report, Elin stopped going into Tiger’s house when dropping off the children. And now she has the nannies take the children from house to house during the day.
“They just don’t speak anymore,” the source said. “Even during the rare times when they see each other in person.”
Tiger’s assistant went over upcoming plans with Elin recently and worked out a schedule that was acceptable to everyone. This was the first time that was done, indicating that the relationship is growing worse.
Elin has taken four trips away from Tiger in the past several weeks. And while they will share custody of the children in a divorce, as RadarOnline.com reported exclusively, the logistics are still being worked out, with Elin expected to spend much time back in Sweden and Tiger back on the pro tour.
