Tiger Woods strikes plea deal in Florida DUI case
A reckless driving plea deal officially resolves the DUI case for professional golfer Tiger Woods in a Florida courtroom. Fox News contributor Paul Mauro joins ‘Fox & Friends’ to dissect the legal outcomes of the hearing, which includes a five-year driver’s license suspension and more.
Marriage might be on the table for Tiger Woods and Vanessa Trump.
A source told Page Six that their relationship is “stronger than ever” after dealing with serious personal situations this year on both ends.
Woods was arrested on charges of DUI back in March after flipping his Land Rover on Jupiter Island, Florida, where he was found with two hydrocodone pills on his person during a search at the scene. He ended up going to Switzerland to enter a rehab facility and has since been hoping to get back into golf after returning home.

Trump, the ex-wife of Donald Trump Jr., revealed in April that she was diagnosed with breast cancer. She recently announced that she is cancer-free in a video on her daughter, Kai Trump’s, Instagram this past week.
It’s been a difficult year, but their bond has grown stronger because of it, according to the outlet.

“They’re very serious about each other and absolutely see a future together,” the source said. “Marriage is something they’ve talked about, but that doesn’t mean a proposal is necessarily around the corner.
“Going through difficult times together has brought them closer and shown them that they can count on one another. It’s one thing to enjoy the good times together, but they’ve also seen how the other person handles things when life gets difficult.

The source added that Woods and Trump “have really leaned on each other.” Woods and Trump also “celebrated privately” since learning the latter was cancer-free.
Trump was also very supportive of Woods following his arrest on charges of DUI. She stood by his side during a court appearance in September stemming from the arrest. Woods ultimately accepted a plea deal that reduced his charges to reckless driving.
Vanessa, who shares five children with Trump Jr., and Woods, who has a daughter and son with ex-wife Elin Nordergren, have also seen their families get close, according to the source.

An example is Kai, a freshman at the University of Miami, who has been spotted with Woods multiple times this year. Kai is a part of the women’s golf team for the Hurricanes, though she announced she underwent surgery that will keep her off the course for some time.
“Their families have blended really naturally,” the outlet’s source continued. ” Kai absolutely adores Woods and Trump gets along great with his kids, too. They genuinely enjoy spending time together as a family.”
