Vanessa Trump has sent Tiger Woods a public message of support on Instagram as the embattled golfing great faces a new fight to save his reputation.
Woods was put behind bars last Friday after rolling his SUV while attempting to overtake a vehicle at high speed in Jupiter Island, Florida, before cops found two opioid pills in his pocket.
Sharing a picture of the couple together in happier times, Trump captioned the image with two red hearts and the words: ‘Love you.’
Daily Mail understands that behind-the-scenes Trump, 48, has been pushing Woods to get the best care possible and that she won’t stand for another repeat of the troubles that have blighted Woods’ life away from golf.
Woods, 50, has since been given approval by a judge to travel outside of the United States for rehab in his latest battle with prescription pills.
Woods is also charged with driving under the influence, property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test. He pleaded not guilty and is slated to appear in court on May 5.

It comes hours after astonishing police footage detailed the moment Woods was arrested
Her message comes after police released stunning bodycam detailing the aftermath of the crash.
In one clip, Woods is heard telling police that he had spoken on the phone with President Donald Trump – Vanessa’s former father-in-law from her marriage to Donald Trump Jr. who is friends with Woods.
Woods was also asked how much he had to drink, to which he replied: ‘None.’
When quizzed if he is on any medication, he said: ‘I take a few, yes,’ before detailing that he had taken it all earlier that morning.
Woods then is then shown sitting on the front of the police car for the sobriety exercises, one of which sees a cop move her hand from side to side in front of Woods’ face as he attempts to follow it – without moving his head. In another, he is asked to touch the end of his nose.
After the tests, the golf legend – who appeared to be hiccupping on several occasions – is asked to stand up and face the police car. He is then told to put his hands behind his back before being placed in cuffs.
‘I do believe your normal faculties are impaired and you’re under [the influence of] an unknown substance,’ the cop tells him. ‘I’m being arrested?’ Woods asks. ‘Yes, sir,’ she responds.
The affidavit claims Woods was ‘limping and stumbling’ during the tests.

‘I know and understand the seriousness of the situation I find myself in today,’ Woods said in a statement on Tuesday. ‘I am stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment and focus on my health.
‘This is necessary in order for me to prioritize my well-being and work toward lasting recovery.’
It was the fourth occasion Woods has been involved in an accident since 2009.
Trump and Woods have been dating since around Thanksgiving 2024, with the Daily Mail exclusively revealing their relationship in March last year.
Just days before Woods crashed, Trump watched from the stands in Florida as he made a hugely anticipated return to golf at his TGL (The Golf League) event.

His team lost, but it was still considered a major step for Woods given on his recovery from a seventh back surgery last October and a torn Achilles last March.
Anticipation was growing that he would compete at The Masters at Augusta next week.
That will now not happen and the PGA of America added on Wednesday Woods had turned down the opportunity to captain the United States at the 2027 Ryder Cup in order to focus on his wellbeing.
