Filed under: British Open , Golf You can assume something about someone all you want, but until they confirm it, it's impossible to ever know if it really true. We can now, thanks to an upcoming interview in Vogue , all accept the reality that the elderly-superstar-athlete relationship between Chris Evert and Greg Norman did begin as an extramarital affair . The tennis legend revealed that she and Norman had tried to fight their desire for each other and had undergone couples-counselling with their longtime spouses, Andy Mill and Laura Andrassy, in an effort to overcome their mutual attraction. But Evert, who married the Great White Shark in a lavish ceremony in the Bahamas last month, said counselling did not work and the pair dissolved their marriages to be together. "It was like an irresistible force," she said. "How do you explain something like that?" It is the first time the sporting power couple have publicly admitted they had embarked on an illicit romantic relationship while they were still with their spouses. Far be it for me to stand on a pedestal and chastise Evert and Norman. In fact, I'm more of the opinion that the affair, while possibly detrimental to other relationships, is at least (now) the most honest part of the whole situation.
