"Elin will pretend it's the usual family celebration for the children and then ditch the man," the News of the World quoted a friend a saying.

"In the short-term they'l act like any other loving couple. Elin won't break it all up right away. But she does need some time alone to herself and a legal separation will happen very quickly," the friend added.

Nordegren has already moved herself and the children - two-year-old daughter Sam and 10-month-old son Charlie - out of the marital home to a separate house 200 yards down the road in Windermere, Florida.

The pal said Nordegren weight has plummeted as she loses sleep and struggles to eat with all the stress.

"To have been lied to for so long and not have a clue about it, she's got to wonder about the man she married," said her friend.

"And she's also blaming herself, which is the worst. Elin's doubting her own abilities to chose the right people in her life.

"The trouble is Elin had no idea Tiger was cheating on her. He did an excellent job at keeping his lifestyle under wraps.

"And Elin isn't one of those controlling wives who checks up on her husband ten times a day. He'd never have married her if she was high maintenance or suspicious at all.

"So this stuff could have been happening during her pregnancies for all she knows.

"It's all so raw for her right now. But she doesn't believe he had 20 affairs and that there''s a sex tape out there.

"The only one Elin really knows about for sure is Rachel Uchitel, and the fact that went on so long and that she travelled to various continents with him just kills her," the friend added.
