Norman and Evert Announce Engagement

normanevert Tennis legend, Chris Evert (52), and golf superstar, Greg Norman (52), announced their engagement today from a golf tournament in South Africa. The couple said they haven’t set a date for the nuptial yet.

Evert and Norman both split from their perspective spouses this year. Chris from her husband of 18 years, Andy Mill, and Greg from his wife of 25 years, Laura. It’s reported that the couple started seeing each other while they were both married to other people.

Norman recently settled his divorce from Laura by agreeing to give her $100M of his $300M fortune, after a bitter court battle. Norman had, at that time, been seen publicly with Evert and was reportedly trying to cut his losses should pictures of him and his mistress become evidence in the proceedings. Oh, and there was some evidence that Greg bought Chris lavish gifts and wrote steamy love letters to her.

Asked when the couple plan to marry Evert said:

“Well, it is an engagement ring. We were engaged on Sunday night coming over here, en route to South Africa. We don’t know when and where we’ll be married though.”

Considering the history of both of them I’m thinking they should probably hurry it up. You never know when the next great thing’s going to walk across your path. Of course, as someone suggested, they may both just be suffering from mid-life crises. If that’s the case, I’d hate to be in their bedroom when they get over it.
