  • Elin
  • Chris Cline Pic

1. He's rich, b!tch! With a net worth of $1.2 billion, putting him 377th in the whole country, Chris Cline's money blows Tiger Woods out of the water.

2. He's got a dirty job. Or at least pays people to do his dirty work. The West Virginia native is head of Foresight Reserves LP, a major coal producer.

The Swedish former model, 33, and Cline, 53, both have mansions in the uber-exclusive Seminole Landing development in North Palm Beach, Fla.

"Elin and Chris have been dating since the holidays," a source says.

A twice-married father of four, Cline owns a luxury yacht called Mine Games, and apparently hosted a Mitt Romney fundraiser in his home last fall.

Elin Nordegren may have just demolished her mansion by the sea, but her romance with Jamie Dingman, a wealthy businessman, is apparently getting stronger by the day. 

So much so, they spent the holidays together!

Sources say the romantic couple traveled to the Bahamas, and “things are going great between them.” She started dating Jamie Dingman around the middle of last year.

The Swedish beauty, who just turned 32 Jan. 1, and her kids have moved into a private community until the new house is ready. Dingman reportedly visits her often.

Jamie's dad, Michael Dingman, is a wealthy investor, while Jamie himself specialized in Russian private equity funds and once owned an Indy car-racing team.

Interestingly, he reportedly dated Bridget Moynahan, Tom Brady's ex, before Elin, and has also been linked to Princess Madeleine of Sweden ... and Rachel Uchitel.

We're just glad Elin Nordegren is happy in any case.

Recent reports have been confirmed by a friend close to Elin Nordegren: She's got a new boyfriend in Jamie Dingman, it's fun, and she's happy!

After her divorce from Tiger Woods, Elin instantly became one of the most eligible and desirable women on Earth ... but also sought to lay low.

It wasn't until a year and a half later that she was ready to move on and was spotted kissing and hugging Jamie Dingman in Stockholm, Sweden:

A source confirmed to People that the two are an item, but still "at the beginning of dating, where you don't know where it's going to go."

Elin met Jamie, a financier, at a charity dinner in Florida benefiting Queen Silvia of Sweden's World Childhood Foundation on April 2.

Despite rumors to the contrary, such as Elin dating a student in Florida last summer, this is Nordegren's first post-split relationship:

"It's fun and she's happy," adds a second Elin friend.

Before he began dating Elin Nordegren, Jamie Dingman and Rachel Uchitel were an item. Yes, the same woman whose affair with Tiger Woods was exposed in November 2009, sending him fleeing in his car and ... you know the rest.

Didn't see that one coming, did you?

Tournament of THG Couples Bracket

Jamie Dingman, whose dad is a billionaire tycoon, has been dating Elin Nordegren for several months. Prior to Elin, Jamie and Rachel dated fairly recently - there was even some overlap with Tiger, which Jamie was aware of!

When Rachel Uchitel was getting more serious with Tiger, Jamie reportedly joked. "That's okay. I'll date his wife, Elin." It gets weirder still:

At the time the Tiger scandal broke, they were living together in Miami! 

One last bizarre connection comes from Jen Madden, the girl who sold the Woods story. Staying at her friend's home, she learned about Rachel Uchitel's affair with Tiger when she overheard her talking about it ... with Jamie.

No clue if Elin Nordegren is aware of any of this, but if she's not, we can't imagine it's going to go over too well when someone clues her in.

Then again, maybe it's a little bit of payback.

Who would you rather ...

We told you earlier that Elin Nordegren has a new boyfriend in Jamie Dingman, a wealthy American investor. Now we've got photo evidence!

Evidence of them kissing, no less!

The New York Post reports that Jamie Dingman, whose father is billionaire Michael Dingman, has been dating Elin Nordegren for several months.

Swedish newspaper Expressen spotted Nordegren and Dingman kissing outside her Stockholm apartment earlier this week. Check it out:

Pre-Elin, Dingman has been romantically linked to model/ actress Bridget Moynahan (Tom Brady's ex) and Princess Madeleine of Sweden.

The Post says Dingman splits time between China, the Bahamas, Florida and Sweden (Nordegren has homes in the latter two) as of late.

For what it's worth (a lot!), Nordegren recently put her three-bedroom, two bathroom Stockholm penthouse on the market for $5 million.

The mother of two was last linked to a 35-year-old South African student she met at a Florida college where they were both taking classes.

Tiger Woods? Who knows what that guy's up to anymore.

Tiger Woods' former wife Elin Nordegren has found a new boyfriend in Jamie Dingman, a New York marketing executive, according to reports.

TMZ, via a Swedish photo agency, broke the story, citing photographs of him kissing and hugging Elin Nordegren at her apartment in Sweden.

The photos of Elin and Jamie Dingman together have not been released ... yet. But they're definitely together, and he's definitely not poor.

Elin Nordegren is back in the dating game.

Jamie's dad, Michael Dingman, is a wealthy investor, while Jamie himself specialized in Russian private equity funds and owned an Indy car-racing team.

Interestingly, he reportedly dated Bridget Moynahan, Tom Brady's ex, before Elin, and was also romantically linked to Princess Madeleine of Sweden.

He's got quite a Swedish princess right now, it appears!

Spirces say he and Elin met at a Red Cross charity event in Florida in January and "he and Elin have strong feelings for each other," a friend said.

"He's a classic all-American guy, but very private. He's handsome, a total gentleman and low-key. He's never been in the press. Elin's a very lucky girl."

The source added, "He doesn't play golf."

As for Tiger Woods, who divorced Elin last year after his philandering with myriad VIP cocktail waitresses was exposed, his relationship status is unclear.
