Tiger Woods' Family Leaving Him For The Holidays

Elin and the kids wave bye-bye to moving trucks.

Tuesday we heard online chatter that Tiger Woods' wife Elin Nordegren had ordered moving trucks to her house and spent ten minutes instructing movers what to do with her belongings as they loaded up fine art and furniture. It's now being reported that Elin is taking off with Sam, 2, and Charlie, 10 months, to spend the holidays completely separate from husband and dad Tiger Woods.

The move could appear cold-hearted if you weren't aware of the buzz that Tiger Woods is currently holed up on his yacht with mistress Rachel Uchitel. Both Woods and Uchitel took off for Palm Beach, Florida over the weekend where activity was seen around Tiger's yacht and inside his $44.5 million home on nearby Jupiter Island. Uchitel was snapped buying groceries on Monday (because, you know, when you think "Rachel Uchitel" naturally you think "domestic") said to be staying with her mother, but considering that would still put her less than ten miles from the marina where Tiger keeps his yacht, we're seriously suspicious.

So we don't blame Elin Nordegren for the move. It's said she's only stayed in the house that she shares with Tiger this long because little Charlie has been sick with the flu. Apparently now that everyone's feeling better, it's time to get to business.

Elin Nordegren's neighbors in the ritzy Islewood community of Windermere, Florida, reported that she didn't show up for the Islewood Country Club's annual holiday party as she normall does. "Her absence was noticeable, and there was a little tension and sadness in the air," one club member told Us Magazine.
