Elin Nordegren’s relationship with billionaire coal magnate Chris Cline has become serious, sources tell Page Six.
The former wife of Tiger Woods and Cline, who has made more than $1.5 billion mining coal in Illinois and West Virginia, have been dating for over a year.
They own homes next door to one another in wealthy North Palm Beach. Cline recently bought a second mansion next to his existing home, while Nordegren just completed renovating her own.
A source said, “He and Elin have their own private enclave. They couldn’t be happier.”
The source added that Cline, a father of four, and mother-of-two Nordegren have a lot in common, including they both want to remain out of the limelight and are interested in philanthropy.
It’s believed Cline, 55, has also traveled to Sweden with Nordegren, 34, to meet her family.
But it’s not all low-key: Cline owns a lavish, 164-foot yacht called Mine Games, which has its own submarine and is even bigger than Woods’ 155-footer, Privacy. Nordegren — who has a friendly relationship with Woods’ girlfriend Lindsey Vonn — and Cline could not be reached.
