TIGER ‘TRICK’ Tiger Woods’ ex Erica Herman ‘sues him for $30m saying she was kicked out mansion after he “tricked” her into leaving’
ERICA HERMAN is allegedly suing ex Tiger Woods “for $30m” after claiming that he “tricked” and kicked her out of the Hobe Sound mansion where they lived.
We reported how the American has split from his girlfriend and is now embroiled in a bitter legal row.
Herman, 39, has filed a lawsuit against the golfing icon in an attempt to nullify a non-disclosure agreement she alleges Woods, 47, made her sign at the start of their relationship.
Herman claims the NDA should be voided when there is evidence of assault or harassment.
TMZ reported a private trust run by the golfer is trying to “aggressively enforce” the NDA following the end of their relationship.
Now the Daily Mail claims that Herman “filed a separate case against his trust in October” which alleges that “he kicked her out of their shared home”.
And they state that she is seeking $30m for the emotional damages.
In court papers obtained by the publication, she alleges that agents working for Woods had persuaded her to leave their $48m home to go on a short holiday.
However, when she got to the airport, they then informed her that she was locked out of the property.
Herman claims that Woods’ representatives removed $40,000 of her money and made “scurrilous and defamatory allegations” about how she had got it in the first place.
She is demanding over $30m for the claimed “breaches of duty” that she says has left her suffering “severe” emotional damages.
Herman says that she should have been allowed to live in the home in Hobe Sound, Florida, for another five years.
But she alleges Woods used “trickery” after breaking up with her in October.
Herman sued Tiger’s trust, the Jupiter Island Irrevocable Homestead Trust.
The trust is the legal owner of the mansion in Hobe Sound where the pair lived together for six years.
She says that she provided “valuable services” at Woods’ requests as part of an “oral tenancy agreement” which she says gave her the right to live in the property for a “certain duration of time.”
The lawsuit has been filed as a trust litigation and states: “All expenses that related to (Herman’s) residency were fully paid by the defendant or its privies.
“This agreement was fully performed for the six-year period prior to the events giving rise to this lawsuit.
“The duties that were performed by the plaintiff were extensive and of an extraordinary nature in light of the overall circumstances and environment in which she lived.”
