The possible divorce between Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren thanks to the massive infidelity scandal plaguing the golf great could wind up being one of the most costly in history.
In a report given exclusively to PopEater by Life & Style magazine, Woods may have to part with a major chunk of more than $400 million should he divorce his wife.
The couple has reportedly been attending marital counseling in order to stave off a divorce, but their relationship is still quite rocky. Life & Style reports that Nordegren is intent on getting full custody of the couple's two children, which would also give her leverage when it comes to the couple's assets.
Celebrity divorce lawyer Raoul Felder tells the magazine that normally "the judge rules that (the mother) can go wherever she likes as long as it doesn't cut the father out of the children's life and make visitation difficult for him... In Tiger's case, a judge will probably tell him that since he can afford his own plane, he can travel wherever he needs to."
Felder also says Elin should even be able to travel outside of the U.S. perhaps to her homeland of Sweden without getting approval from Tiger first, which is normal following a divorce.
