After the footage of Katherine went viral, it was announced that she had a net worth of over $1 million. Since Katherine has money of her own, you can’t accuse her of being with her gorgeous husband for the money.
Elin Nordegren and Tiger Woods
Remember Tiger Woods’ ex-wife? Try not to gasp when you see her now. Elin was born in Stockholm, Sweden where she started her modeling career in 2000. When she moved to the United States, she met Tiger Wood though a mutual friend. She rejected his initial offer for a date, but she finally gave in. They were engaged two years later and were married between 2004 and 2010. The couple also has two children together. The marriage fell apart when Elin found out about Tiger’s infidelity. Elin never let her difficult romantic life get her down, and in 2014, she graduated from Rollins College in Florida with a degree in psychology. She also received the Outstanding Senior award. She also walked away with a reported $100 million divorce settlement. A settlement that large must have made the whole infidelity issue sting a little less.
