Elin Nordegren's Huge Post-Divorce Purchase
Nordegren spending to help others.
In all my years reporting on love and romance, I've concluded that two things heal a broken heart the easiest: one is cooking (seriously). The other is helping others. Elin Nordegren, who said in a recent interview that she feels a death after her split from Tiger Woods, is making plans to purchase a mental health facility for patients who need care. Here are the details.

This weekend our friends at Hollywood Life ran the headline, "She Really Is An Angel -- Elin Nordegren To Use Divorce Settlement To Open Mental Health Clinic!" An angel indeed, as Nordegren is preparing to put some of her massive divorce settlement toward a facility to treat patients suffering psychological and emotional disturances.
The report came via the "New York Post," which reported last week that Elin Nordegren is "considering spending some of her $65 million settlement to set up a clinic providing mental-health counseling to underprivileged families in Florida." Nordegren studied psychology as an undergrad before she met and married Tiger Woods, and she's revealed that she's returned to school for a mental health counseling degree at Florida's prestigious Rollins College.
