Tiger Woods's ex-wife Elin Nordegren, seen here in 2004, has broken her silence over the sex scandal that ended their marriage.
"I felt stupid as more things were revealed. How could I not have known anything? The word betrayal isn't strong enough. I felt like my whole world had fallen apart."
Those were the words of Elin Nordegren, ex-wife of Tiger Woods, as she described for the first time what life has been like since she found out that the world’s top golfer had, to put it mildly, been unfaithful to her throughout much of their six-year marriage.
Nordegren, a 30-year-old Swedish former model, told People magazine she initially felt "shock and disbelief" at learning Woods had cheated on her. Later, as a string of women, including a porn star, a cocktail waitress and a Las Vegas club manager claimed affairs with her husband she began to question herself.
"I've been through hell," she said.
She told the celebrity news weekly that stress from the lurid tabloid scandal caused her insomnia and weight loss, and that in the days before her divorce was finalised she began to lose her hair.
Nordegren said she and Woods had tried to reconcile but she ultimately decided it was hopeless because she had lost her trust in him.
She said she had been truly devoted to Woods and had hoped for a happily-ever-after life together with him.
"I loved him. We had so much fun," she said, "and I felt safe with him."
Woods's spectacular fall from grace began on November 27 last year when he crashed his car into a fire hydrant near his Orlando home.
The incident touched off shocking revelations about a string of extramarital affairs which led to his admission of adultery.
She told People that her interview with the magazine would be her first and last, and that she now intends to remain a private person.
"My immediate plan is for the kids and me to continue to adjust to our new situation.One thing that won’t be in her life, it seems, is golf. Since her break-up with Woods she said she had not watched a single minute of golf.
