When it comes to cheating men, Tiger Woods is the first name that comes to mind in many circles these days. He took cheating to new heights and his Elin Nordegren has exacted a new kind of payback – from his wallet.
Fox News reported a $750 million settlement deal given to Elin Nordegren in exchange for her silence. She is forbidden to speak about what happened to their relationship and his extra-marital affairs and the works. Woods needs to work hard on regenerating his bad reputation in the public.
That’s not a bad payout for her silence and, with the hungry mob desperate to hear her side of the story, it’s probably a fair settlement (compared to what she could get for spilling the sordid details after a few years of frenzied media speculation). The agreement lasts for the duration of her life – even if Woods precedes her in death.
But, it wasn’t all about money. Nordegren made sure the children were protected as well. One term requires that Woods not expose the children to single women he is dating and only introduces the children to a new romantic interest if he marries her.
Have You Learned Anything From This Reality?
The first thing to learn is that cheating does ruin marriages. Not all marriages impacted by cheating are completely destroyed but it will take a good while to heal. The problem in this particular case was the sheer scope of the cheating.
It wasn’t just a one-time affair. He meant to make the mistake, multiple times. The more that it was talked by the media, the more truth came out and discovered. It was reported that some neighbor was the last one on his list counting of more or less twenty women. That’s a huge weight for his wife to take and hold on to their marriage.
This is an embarrassing situation for Nordegren because she has been cheated on not only once but multiple times. That explains why she has been hiding from everybody especially the media. Some people may wonder how she was able to “not” uncover the affairs early as before his 14th mistress.
She is not the first woman to endure a “womanizing” husband. She isn’t even the first public figure to have to go through this. After the initial shock of finding out wore off (if the rumors are to be believed about what really happened that fateful night) she has handled herself with a quiet confidence and avoided a public mud slinging battle. It seems for her that this silence is really paying off. Perhaps we can all learn something from that.
