Tiger Woods Alleged Affair with Jaimee Grubbs -- It's About to Get Ugly

With the introduction of Jaimee Grubbs into the picture, the reality show that the Tiger Woods affair story has become is about to get ugly. Although it was a little blurry with speculation and a little marred by unsubstantiated allegations, the alleged affair with Rachel Uchitel maintained a certain degree of both plausible deniability and respectability in that it just might never have happened. Having the National Enquirer as the middleman to the sources that spoke of the affair weighed heavily in favor of Tiger Woods (despite the National Enquirer being right more times as not, including with the John Edwards / Rielle Hunter affair), and Rachel Uchitel making a beeline to Gloria Allred's office for strategy sessions on suing the infamous tabloid for defamation did not hurt, either. But Jaimee Grubbs is another story altogether. This picture doesn't looked blurry at all, is bold, and, if reports are to be believed, painting a pretty ugly picture of Tiger Woods.

Us Weekly and UsMagazine.com are framing the picture of the alleged affair between Jaimee Grubbs, a Los Angeles cocktail waitress/ reality show contestant's girlfriend, who says she met Tiger Woods in Las Vegas in 2007 when she was 21. She claims to have had a 31-month relationship with four-time Masters champion and bedded him 20 times. She also lays claim to over 300 text (read: sext) messages from Tiger Woods, of which Us Weekly will present a few. She has photos -- how incriminating is unknown as yet, nor is it known whether or not there are more that may be more compromising. And there is a voicemail purported to be from Tiger Woods as well, the audiotape of said voicemail to be posted on UsMagazine.com on Wednesday, the same day Us Weekly hit's the newsstands with its Jaimee Grubbs expose.

Yes, indeed, the picture is about to get real ugly.

Not that Jaimee Grubbs is unattractive. Far from it. In fact, none of Tiger Woods' female acquaintances -- at least the ones that keep making headlines -- have been unattractive. But superficial beauty and physical pulchritude only does so much to beautify an environment. It is all too often a façade and what lurks underneath can be quite base, plain, and even ugly. Unfortunately, everything about Tiger Woods life, from his wholesome image to the beautiful people he seems to have attracted or gravitated toward seem to have been more façade than substance. And sooner or later, Toto always manages to pull the curtain away, no matter how many times the movie is replayed...

There is New York socialite Rachel Uchitel, a beautiful 34-year-old brunette that the National Enquirer not only alleges is having an affair with Tiger Woods, they have published articles calling her out on several falsehoods she is said to have committed when speaking to their reporters. But Rachel Uchitel claims she barely knows Tiger Woods and has retained the services of celebrity lawyer Gloria Allred, who is already claiming that the National Enquirer's sources are hired liars, having been paid $25,000 each for their stories.

There is Jaimee Grubbs, late of the VH1 reality show "Tool Academy," where she was the girlfriend of contestant Shawn "Loud Mouth Tool" Southern. In direct contrast to Rachel Uchitel, the beautiful Jaimee Grubbs is not denying but directing stating that she had an affair with Tiger Woods. And whereas the Rachel Uchitel affair allegation was one Tiger Woods could dodge, Jaimee Grubbs' has present Us Magazine with a voicemail recording that purports to be Tiger Woods telling her that he believes that his wife, Elin Nordegren, suspects the affair.

And then there is Elin Nordegren, the beautiful blonde model Tiger Woods married in 2004. Since their marriage, the two have produced a pair of children, the second being born in February. And it is precisely because of the marriage and the children that this entire affair is going to turn ugly. There are already rumors that the cause of Tiger Woods early morning accident was in part a result of actions precipitated by an argument over stories of Woods' affair.

Jaimee Grubbs allegations and presentation of information that point to infidelity on Tiger Woods' part will quite possibly force some form of retaliation from Tiger Woods, whether it be verbal or legal. Given some of the text messages and the information already available, and given that they are authentic, the material seriously muddies the wholesome image Tiger Woods has built of himself over the years. If Jaimee Grubbs' sext messages, voicemail, and photos are found to be substantive, there is likely to be a divorce in the Woods household, further adding to the shadow being cast over the Tiger Woods brand. And if that occurs, Jaimee Grubbs will likely be drawn in to help darken the picture a little more.

It is going to get very ugly indeed...
