Greg and Chris: Marriage crisis

The newlyweds are at odds because of his ex-wife Laura refusing to fade into the background…

Greg Norman’s six-month marriage to Chris Evert is already on shaky ground, as the champion golfer’s angry ex-wife Laura Andrassy threatens to come between them.

While Greg has long since moved on from his wife of 25 years, Laura, 58, isn’t ready to let the couple forget the pain and anguish she has endured.

Insiders say Laura has been bombarding Greg and Chris, both 53, with phone calls and has even enlisted some of Greg’s friends and family to help make Greg realise just how much he hurt her.

“Laura’s actions are causing terrific tension in Greg’s marriage to Chrissie,” says an insider. “If Laura isn’t telling people [how she was hurt] then she’s calling Greg, or having friends and family call to say how she was betrayed. There is a great deal of tension and Chris wants it stopped.

“Laura just can’t seem to let go,” reports the insider. “She will stop at nothing to keep the support of those who sided with her and it’s driving Greg and Chrissie mad.”

Despite receiving a reported $158million divorce settlement, sources say the payout has done nothing to keep Laura from interfering in Greg’s life.

“She was supposed to take the money and walk away,” a source close to Chris told Woman’s Day.
