Report: Greg Norman married for 3rd time

Former world No. 1 golfer Greg Norman was married for the third time in an intimate ceremony on a private island in the Caribbean, it was revealed by Australian magazine New Idea on Saturday.

The Australian exchanged vows with Kirsten Kutner, a mother-of-two interior designer from Sydney last week.

Norman said only immediate family were there, with everyone barefoot and dressed in white.

"Kirsten walked down the aisle on her own — we were all waiting for her," Norman said. "To me, she is the most beautiful woman in the world. She looked stunning."

Kutner, 41, said the celebration was small but memorable.

"We wanted something very intimate with just us and the family," she said. "It was very relaxed — a beautiful family reunion."

Norman, nicknamed "The Great White Shark," divorced his first wife Laura Andrassy in 2006 after 25 years of marriage, and then married U.S. tennis star Chris Evert in the Bahamas in 2008.

Their marriage lasted only 18 months and less than six months after divorcing Evert, Norman went public with his relationship with new love Kutner.

"One minute we were having a day-to-day conversation and the next moment, all of a sudden, everything changed — our lives changed," Norman said about their engagement.

The news was not welcomed at the time by former wife Andrassy, who said Norman had started an affair with Kutner while they were married.

"It was a hurtful time in my life," she said. "I don't care what he does, I've moved on. It's just that my children have to be around a woman who almost destroyed our family."

Evert said: "I wish Greg happiness in his future. I know he is aggressive and works fast, but I'm not disappointed."

Norman, 55, was the world's No. 1 for 331 weeks in the 1980s and 1990s.

He has two adult children — son Greg and daughter Morgan — with Andrassy.
