After the divorce Nordegren said to ABC News that she wanted to save her marriage, even though she was shocked by the multiple indidelities. She said to People magazine that she's "been through hell."

She told the magazine that she had no clue that Woods was cheating at the time.

ABC News reported Woods saying, "You know, it's a sad time in our lives. And we're looking forward in our lives and how we can help our kids the best way we possibly can. And that's the important thing."

Nordegren said according ABC News that she did not suspect any of the cheating. "For the last three-and-a-half years, when all this was going on, I was home a lot more with pregnancies, then the children and my school."

She added, "I wish him all the best in the future, as a person and as an athlete. I know he is going to go down as the best golfer that ever lived, and rightfully so. I feel privileged to have witnessed a part of his golfing career."
