After months of media speculation, the marriage of Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren is officially over, reports People.
The couple appeared yesterday at the Bay County Circuit Court in Panama City, Florida, to finalize their divorce settlement.
Nordegren’s law firm made a statement on behalf of the couple: "We are sad that our marriage is over and we wish each other the very best for the future," they said. "While we are no longer married, we are the parents of two wonderful children and their happiness has been, and will always be, of paramount importance to both of us."
The divorce papers don’t reveal the details of their separation.
The agreement concerning the division of property and assets wasn’t disclosed, but according to media speculation, Nordegren, 30, should receive an amount ranging from 100 to 500 million.
Children appeared to be the main point in the negotiations, and it is assumed that the couple will share custody of Sam Alexis, 3, and Charlie Axel, 18 months. "Once we came to the decision that our marriage was at an end, the primary focus of our amicable discussions has been to ensure [the childrens’] future well-being," the report also said. "The weeks and months ahead will not be easy for them as we adjust to a new family situation, which is why our privacy must be a principal concern."
Nordegren had signed a prenuptial agreement, but it has been amended and renegotiated in the wake of the scandal concerning the golf champion’s sex scandals.
