Elin Nordegren reportedly demands $750 million divorce package
Elin Nordegren Woods has escalated her demands during divorce negotiations and is now asking for "an estimated $750 million package" and full custody of the children she and Tiger have together, reports Bill Zwecker of the Chicago Sun-Times.

Zwecker writes what others have reported: that Tiger has demanded a strict, lifelong confidentiality clause that would ban Nordegren from writing a book about their marriage or doing any interviews on the subject.
Previously the couple had been working on a joint custody agreement, but now reports indicate the pair are not speaking to each other.
Things started to turn less amicable last week when news came out that Nordegren had hired a London law firm where her sister works to represent her in the divorce proceedings. Tiger's camp accused the law firm of being the source of leaks about their relationship.

    tiger should have never married or at least had a prenup which protected him

    i don't care if he cheated, most men will cheat especially with that kind of fame and money, however tiger is an idiot for not protecting his money in the first place

    although i doubt these figures are correct, last time i checked tigers net worth was $750mil, so i dont think she can take everything.

    i think she'll get 200 mil

    Think she should go for it, not usually an advocate for taking a man for all he's worth but he humilated her and continues to do so by going back on his promise to try and be with the family more. She's entitled to half as she' been the sole carer of his childrens when he spends the majority of the year on tour.

    she deserves nought

    the kids however deserve it

    i'm not sure how much tiger woods made between 2004 and 2010, but she doesn't deserve anything from his earnings before this period... they'd been married less than 6 years

    I'm sure they'll both be left with more money than anyone could ever need.

    She deserves something but not that much. She needs to go out and work instead of sitting on her ass trying to take Tiger for all he has. I mean, he's a cheating douchebag, but he DOES work and has acquired his fortune himself. I bet she doesn't financially contribute to the household at all.

    You mean apart from looking after his children? That's after carrying them for nine months each and giving birth to them. ;)

    Oh please. There are plenty of women out there that care for the children and still have a career. Just because she birthed his kids doesn't warrant her all of his fortune that HE worked for. Try again.:rolleyes:

    When you marry someone there is no "mine" and "yours", it is "ours".

    When a couple divorce any money or assets built up during the marriage should be split 50/50 between the partners.

    I think she deserves every penny! When you look at the many, many women he slept with... did he use protection every single time? I shudder to think the diseases he might have spread around, including to his wife.

    Well, with some WAGs I might agree with you. People like Alex Curran have completely traded off their WAG status, and would be lucky to be in a minimum wage job had she not married Steve G.

    However, from what I know of Elin, she worked as a nanny and a model before her wedding, and hasn't used her status as Tiger's wife for profit. I also think that while I applaud working mothers, if the choice not to work is available to them, it's a very valid life choice.

    I also think that Elen had a lot more potential than the likes of Alex Curran/Dannielle Lloyd etc. Her mother is a politician and her sister is a lawyer I think, so I believe what I've read about Elen having originally intended going to Uni is true. Therefore that was something she gave up when she married (we don't whose decision this ultimately was, or did circumstances dictate), so in the cold hard terms of a divorce, she deserves compensation. Add to that, that most of Tiger's money has been earned based on his image, and I'm sure when he was seen as a family man, with a loving wife by his side, it did his wallet no harm at all.

    I'm sure the 750mil figure is inflated, but she definitely deserves a lot.

    The numbers are always inflated when it comes to these celebrity divorces, but the wives end up getting a lot less than the press claim they will.

    She will get $100m tops, probably less.

    Crikey, how will she get by?:confused:

    These numbers (his earnings and her demands) are simply obscene.

    They are married, she is entitled to half of his fortune - or whatever was agreed by pre-nup.

    It's entirely his fault for recklessly cheating on his wife and family.

    He showed complete disregard for her health, along with the health of her children, who on earth knows what nasty little diseases he could have picked up and passed on to her (at the time) unborn children, never mind the complete lack of respect, if I was her I'd be the one hiring the hitman
