Getty Tiger Woods' ex-wife Elin Nordegren is adding to her family. She announced on Friday that she and her boyfriend of about two years, Jordan Cameron, are expecting their first child together. Elin, 39, shares two children with Tiger Woods. Cameron, 30, has a 10-year-old son from a prior relationship. He's a former pro-athlete with ties to the Kardashians. Who is Jordan Cameron?
1. He's a football player
Jordan Cameron grew up in Los Angeles. He played football at the University of Southern California. He was drafted by the Cleveland Browns during the fourth round, 102nd overall in the 2011 NFL Draft. Cameron played tight end for four seasons in Cleveland. He then signed with the Miami Dolphins and played for two more seasons before retiring in 2017.
2. How did they meet?
Elin and Jordan were reportedly introduced by friends in Miami after he moved there to play for the Dolphins. The pair have been dating quietly and have not yet gone public with their relationship. However, Nordgren was spotted out and about with a baby bump near her home in Florida. A source told PageSix: “Elin is very private, she has been dating Jordan for a number of years, and they have kept their relationship very under wraps. Her friends are so happy for her because he is wonderful. Elin and Jordan met at Art Basel in Miami a few years [ago], and they are both really happy and excited about the arrival of a new baby.”
This will be Elin's third child, she has two kids, Sam and Charlie, with Tiger Woods. It will be Cameron's second child. He has a 10-year-old son from a prior relationship.
3. His ties to the Kardashians
You may have heard of Jordan's sister, Brynn Cameron. She was a standout basketball player at USC in college. She has one child with former football player and Heisman Trophy winner Matt Leinart. She has two more with NBA star and Kendall Jenner's ex, Blake Griffin. This video is a bit ... awkward given what developed afterwards.
4. He was raised Mormon
Jordan and his siblings Brynn and Colby were raised Mormon. Jordan attended BYU in Provo, Utah for his freshman year of college. He played basketball there. He transferred to USC for his sophomore year after getting the attention of then USC head coach Pete Carroll. Regarding his faith, he told Cleveland.com: “I don’t go to church every week, but I believe in the church and the values. It’s big on family and I’m a family guy. Religion is huge on service, and I try to help in the community as much as possible."
5. Athleticism runs in his family
In addition to his sister Brynn's basketball career at USC, Jordan's younger brother Colby is also an athlete. Colby played football on the scout team at Louisiana Tech. He wasn't selected in the 2013 NFL Draft, but was signed shortly afterwards by the Carolina Panthers. He was waived four months later. In 2014, he went to Japan to play for the Fujitsu Frontiers. He was the league's MVP in 2016. Additionally, Su'a Cravens, the safety for the Denver Broncos is Cameron's cousin.
