Tiger Woods’ mother-in-law was rushed to a hospital early yesterday after collapsing from stomach pains in his Florida mansion — where she had gone to comfort her daughter over his scandalous extramarital affairs.
“Oh, my God! My mom just collapsed!” wailed a frantic woman believed to be Woods’ wife, Elin Nordegren, in a 911 call made at 2:35 a.m.
“She collapsed in the bathroom! What do I do?”
After initially refusing treatment, Nordegren’s mom — Swedish politician Barbro Holmberg — was taken by paramedics to Health Central Hospital in Orlando, reportedly on advanced life support.
An SUV driven by a blonde woman believed to be Nordegren followed the ambulance.
Woods reportedly showed up at the hospital about 45 minutes after his wife.
But Holmberg, 57, was released later in the day after treatment and was in good condition, according to hospital spokesman Dan Yates.
The scary incident came 11 days after Woods himself was transported by ambulance to the same hospital after crashing his SUV into a tree and a fire hydrant outside the mansion in the early hours of Nov. 27. Nordegren said she used a golf club to smash the SUV’s rear windows to pull Woods from the vehicle.
Although Woods was released from the hospital later that day, a report by MSNBC.com Monday said he had originally been admitted to the Intensive Care Unit and intubated because his breathing had been compromised.
Holmberg, who previously served as Sweden’s minister of migration, currently is county governor of the county of Gavleborg. She recently traveled to the United States to support her daughter amid revelations that Woods has cheated on Nordegren with at least 11 women.
When Holmberg’s daughter called 911 yesterday, she was initially hysterical, but quickly got calmer when the dispatcher told her to check on Holmberg.
“She’s fine, she’s fine,” said the caller as a young child was heard crying in the background. “She said she collapsed, she fainted. She was down. She was down for a while,” the daughter said. “I heard her fall and then I ran in there.”
“I’m sorry. I got so scared,” said the caller.
Woods was not heard during the call.
