Vanessa Trump, the former daughter-in-law of former U.S. President Donald Trump and current partner of golf legend Tiger Woods, has publicly revealed her recent breast cancer diagnosis.

Although this is not a news anyone would expect to receive, I am working closely with my medical team on a treatment plan.”
In her post, Trump described undergoing a medical procedure “at the beginning of this week” and expressed gratitude for the care she is receiving. She emphasized her focus on healing, writing, “I remain focused and confident, surrounded by the love and support of my family, my children, and the people closest to me.” She also requested privacy during this time, saying, “Thank you for your kindness and support, which means more than I can express.
