Golf star shockingly resigns days before US Open

Amid recent events, McIlroy spoke about his relationship with The guard.

“There have been rumors about my personal life lately, which is unfortunate. Responding to every rumor is a fool’s game,” McIlroy said. “Over the past few weeks, Erica and I have realized that our best future was together as a family. Fortunately, we have resolved our differences and are looking forward to new beginnings.”

Prior to their wedding, McIlroy and Stoll got engaged in Paris in December 2015.

“Erica is with me at tournaments quite often, but we’ve actually tried to keep it low key. She’s a very quiet person, not the kind to broadcast things, but that side of my life is just really good. Now we’re excited , our parents are excited, so it is a very happy time,” he previously told the newspaper Irish independent about their romance.
