Woods wrote: “Love is in the air and life is better with you by my side!
“We look forward to our journey through life together.
“At this time we would appreciate privacy to all those close to our hearts.”
Woods, 49, and Vanessa, 47, started out as friends before it became something more.
The pair had reportedly been seeing each other since before Thanksgiving, but their relationship was not yet public.
The golf legend, who was previously married to Elin Nordegren from 2004 until their split in 2010, has been linked to Vanessa for a while now.
Woods’ children, Charlie, 16, and Sam, 17, attend the same school as Vanessa’s eldest daughter Kai, 17; the £30,000-a-year The Benjamin School.
Last month, Woods and Vanessa were spotted together at a golf tournament, while Kai was seen wearing an outfit from Woods’ clothing line.
Woods was pictured walking and talking with Kai’s entourage, including her mum, during the golfing event.
Vanessa filed for a divorce from Trump Jr. in 2018 in New York.
Five-time Masters winner Woods is her first high-profile relationship since the divorce.
The athlete, widely considered one of the best golfers of all time, has long had links to the Trump family.
Woods has been getting cosy with the Trump family for years, starting when he attended events at golf courses owned by Trump in the early 2000s.
During Trump’s first presidency, Woods was often seen golfing with him at Trump International Golf Club in Florida.
Woods has been an avid supporter of Trump as the President begins his second term in the White House.
However, he still raised eyebrows when he was spotted spending time with the President’s granddaughter and giving her some pointers on the range.
Woods’ love life has seen him date women before Vanessa “who just weren’t right for him”, according to a Page Six insider this month.
The source added: “They have a lot in common. They’ve both gotten used to public scrutiny. They both know how to keep their private life private. They’re both parents…
“They’re a good match; they’re level-headed, they like to avoid drama, they share a lot of the same values. [Woods] Always tried to date girls who just weren’t right for him.”
The source said of Vanessa: “She’s not starstruck my him; she’d date him even if he weren’t famous. Fame doesn’t interest her; that’s what he likes best about her … We’ll see where it goes.”
Woods was recently pictured on the golf course at Mar-a-Lago with President Trump on February 9.
And on February 20, Woods was honored at a Black History Month reception at the White House.
