Despite the growing list of Tiger Woods' alleged mistresses, sources say his wife Elin Nordegren has no plans to leave him.
The latest edition of People magazine cites close friends who say Elin - whose own parents are divorced - is a strong believer in marriage.
"She's a
fighter. I'm sure she's fighting like hell to keep her family intact, but also to make sure Tiger will always be haunted by this," a source told People.
According to the magazine, she already knew of Tiger's various transgressions, but chose to stay with him for the sake of their two children.
Her parents divorced when she and her identical twin sister, Josefin, were only 6 years old.
She married Woods in 2004, but People reported their relationship had been rocky for some times and the couple had been seen arguing publicly in Sweden.
Meanwhile, the National Enquirer - which first broke the news of his infidelities - is reporting that Woods may have fathered a child with one of his mistresses.
Rumours are also circulating of his appearance in a steamy sex tape, which could be worth up to $5 million.
According to TMZ, his British lawyers have issued an order banning media from publishing any nude photos or videos.
The golf star has now been linked to a string of affairs with 11 separate women, including waitresses, models and two porn stars.
