Orlando - World No 1 golfing superster, Tiger Woods, and his wife Elin Nordegren are back under one roof.
According to the HeraldSun
website, after three months apart, the troubled pair are again sharing the same Orlando mansion where their marriage unravelled on November 27, 2009.
But insiders say the move is more a business manoeuvre than a sign that Elin, 29, has forgiven her philandering husband.
A furious Elin moved out of the home after Woods confessed his affairs with up to 14 women, and settled briefly in a nearby rental property.
She reportedly visited him during his stints in behavioural therapy in recent months and had now returned to their home.
"The marriage is all smoke and mirrors, but Elin will help Tiger rebuild his image and gain new sponsorships, because this is what his life is all about," a source said.
"She is doing this more for the kids and holding the family together than anything else."
Woods, 34, who announced an "indefinite break" from golf on December 4 is clearly on the comeback trail.
He issued a heavily scripted public apology last month and speculation was mounting that he would return to the pro tour at the Augusta Masters next month.
He has been seen hitting golf balls on the course inside his gated estate, and one witness has been reported saying Woods was seen kissing Elin on the cheek three times before they hugged.
"I call them the divorced married couple," the source said.
"Elin knows Tiger has issues and is afraid to go near him romantically,
"Because of the children and his need to return to golf, she will try to live in the house with a wall between them."
