Vanessa Trump was seen with her daughter, Kai Trump, and President Donald Trump at the Cadillac Championship, her first public outing since Tiger Woods’ two-vehicle rollover crash and DUI arrest.
On Sunday, Vanessa kept a low profile as she arrived at Trump National Doral Miami for the final round of the signature PGA Tour event. The 48-year-old and daughter Kai joined the president in his suite overlooking the Blue Monster course around 12:15 p.m. ET, with Woods absent from the family gathering.
Following Woods’ March accident, rumors have swirled about possible tension in his relationship with Vanessa. However, the ex-wife of Donald Trump Jr. quickly shut down any speculation about relationship issues.

Vanessa addressed the gossip on social media, sharing a photo to her Instagram Story of herself and Woods together in a hammock, adding two red heart emojis and the caption: “Love you.”
Woods was taken into custody and brought to a police station on March 27, where he was processed on three misdemeanor charges: DUI, property damage, and refusing to submit to a urine test. He also received a non-criminal citation for careless driving resulting in a crash.

The collision happened around 2 p.m. ET while Woods was driving northbound on a two-lane road close to his Jupiter, Florida, home.
A pickup truck pulling a pressure cleaner trailer was attempting to slow down and turn into a driveway when the crash took place. Local Sheriff John Budensiek clarified that Woods, behind the wheel of a Range Rover, was moving at an unsafe speed, which didn’t give the pickup truck driver enough time to fully clear the road.
In a bid to dodge the truck, the 15-time major champion struck the trailer, causing his SUV to overturn. Woods was then detained for the required eight-hour holding period before a close friend was permitted to arrange his release on bail around 11 p.m. local time.

When Woods arrived back at his residence from the Martin County Public Safety Complex, Vanessa reportedly made a point of staying awake to greet him at the door. According to a source speaking with the Daily Mail, she didn’t hide her frustration with her boyfriend and his erratic behavior.
“She’s not happy at all,” the source claimed. “She’s both disappointed and a little bit p—–, if I’m being honest. It’s a definite red flag. And she told him that he’s going to get this sorted out, and that she’s going to require that. He has to get things under control, or she’s not going to stick around.”
Another insider suggested the couple “argued all weekend,” with Vanessa growing more exasperated by Woods’ repeated claims that everything was fine. “She has gone from concern to anger,” the insider said. “She was like, ‘Let’s solve this together’ and his response was basically, ‘Yeah yeah yeah, I got it. It’s fine. It’s under control.’ And she’s like, ‘It is so obviously not under control.'” While the former insider didn’t go so far as calling it an “ultimatum,” they hinted that Vanessa laid down the law with Woods, making it crystal clear she’d walk if he didn’t sort himself out.
“This is a concerned girlfriend expressing boundaries and saying that he’s got to get his s— together, like right now,” the source continued.
“He’s very apologetic, from what I’ve heard. [He] wants to fix this. He’s embarrassed, he’s mortified at all this… and this is really humiliating for it to happen again. And Vanessa is embarrassed too. All her friends are like, ‘Girl, what the hell?'”
A Florida judge gave Woods the green light to travel abroad for medical care. His private Gulfstream jet was later spotted touching down in Zurich, Switzerland, with speculation mounting he’s enrolled in a 90-day physical and psychological treatment program.
