There has been much speculation about the Tiger Woods - Elin Nordegren marriage. Their five year marriage is in disrepair over Woods' alleged affairs and encounters with over thirteen women. Although he has admitted his transgressions and apologized via his website, the public seems to be trying to make the decision when it comes to whether or not Elin Nordegren should stay with her husband.
Tiger Woods and his wife have two young children. His powerful presence on the golf course have made him a very rich, supposedly $1 billion man. Large homes, a yacht, and anything money can buy seem to be a good life for many looking from the outside in, but the trouble marriage between Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren is something money cannot repair.
According to recent reports in many publications, including News.com in Australia, Elin Nordegren wants a divorce, sole custody and half his fortune. They also report that Tiger Woods is not interested in going forward and enter into rehabilitation to wean himself off the prescription drugs Ambien and Vicodin.
No one is sure what the conversation is between Tiger and his wife, Elin, and the reported "close friends" telling the news their business is hardly believable. This is a personal decision between two people and certainly not one to be entered into lightly.
Should Elin Nordegren stay with her husband? Some say 'yes' for the sake of their small children and others believe that the children are young enough to not realize what is going on. That's all for medical professionals and the couple to figure out.
Online banter about this situation ranges from "she should leave now and never look back" to "if he mends his ways and straightens out his wandering ways then she should stay and make it work."
The biggest question is: Why does the public feel the right to make this decision or even draw an opinion? Because Tiger Woods is famous and that fame makes it "OK" for people who are not directly in the midst of the couple's marital issues able to make judgement?
No one knows what goes on inside someone's home and we can only judge on what we hear. When it comes to celebrities, we may hear half-truths and rumors more often than we hear simple facts.
In the end, Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren have difficult decisions to make. We can speculate and make judgment calls, but in the end it is up to the couple to make the final decision with perhaps the help of family and attorneys.
