Elin Woods Buys $2 Mil Swedish Mansion

Elin Nordegren buys Swedish mansion after Tiger Woods is linked to porn star Holly Sampson, 6 others



Tiger Woods' humiliated wife has bought herself a little island hideaway as reports swirled that she's moved out on her sex-crazed hubby.

Elin Nordegren's real estate purchase in Sweden fueled speculation she might take the kids back to her homeland to start a new life far from her transgressing Tiger.

"The official story from her family is that she bought the place with her twin sister, Josefin, not with Tiger," said Poppe Linge of HPG, a Swedish news agency.

The fetching blond spent a little more than $2 million to buy Faglaro Mansion, Swedish newspapers reported.

Nordegren, 29, has not been heard from since the scandal broke. Radaronline.com reported Monday she has moved out of the couple's $2.6 million Windermere, Fla., home and is bunking at another house nearby.

Her Swedish getaway is located on some prime Scandinavian real estate - a small, secluded island reachable from Stockholm only by ferryboat.

"It belonged to a professional soccer player who wanted privacy," Linge said. "I heard she started looking at it last summer and bought it two weeks ago."

That would be around the time Woods plowed his SUV into a fire hydrant outside his Orlando-area mansion - reportedly after Nordegren caught him texting New York party girl Rachel Uchitel.

Uchitel, 34, was the first of at seven reported mistresses (and counting) who have surfaced since then.

Woods escaped with just facial cuts and a $164 ticket after totaling his truck. He was not tested for drugs or alcohol despite claims from a witness who "stated that the driver had consumed alcohol earlier in the day," according to a Florida Highway Patrol subpoena request.

The witness, who was not named in the document, also told troopers that Woods had prescriptions for the sleeping aid Ambien and the painkiller Vicodin.

Woods, 33, publicly apologized for his "transgressions" a few days after the wreck and reportedly offered Nordegren millions to keep her from walking out on him and taking the kids.

Meanwhile, Woods was reportedly being courted by yet another woman, talk show queen Oprah Winfrey, who has offered the golfer an outlet to tell his version of the tawdry tale - if not a shoulder to cry on.

In addition to Uchitel, a New York party girl, Woods has been linked to six other hotties:

- Cori Rist, 31, a divorced mom and a former dancer at the Penthouse Executive Club in Manhattan.

- Orlando waitress Mindy Lawton, 33, who lived a little over five miles from Woods' home and who told London's News of the World that he "wanted to spank me and loved pulling my hair as we had sex."

- Los Angeles-based porn star Holly Sampson, 36, the star of skin flicks like "Cheating Housewives 6."

- Jaimee Grubbs, 24, a cocktail waitress and former contestant on VH1's "Tool Academy" who has admitted to an affair with Woods.

- Kalika Moquin, a 27-year-old Las Vegas nightclub executive, who denies a relationship with Woods.
