Elin Nordegren, the long-suffering ex-wife of philandering golfer Tiger Woods, plunked down $12.2 million for a house (above and below) in the exclusive enclave of Seminole Landing near North Palm Beach, Page2Live has learned.

The beachfront mansion dwarfs in size Woods‘ own new digs in Jupiter Island, about 10 miles north, also on the beach.

The 30-year-old Nordegren and the ex-couple’s two children are set to leave their Orlando area home and move into 12520 Seminole Beach Road within the next few weeks.

I’m also told Nordegren, a former nanny, has been looking at private daycare centers and schools for the two ninos for weeks.

When Canadian singer Celine Dion showed off her palatial Jupiter Island home this week on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Erik Littleton got his three seconds of fame.

Unless you blink, you’ll spot him 3 minutes and 37 seconds into the video below. That’s him, the good looking guy with red shorts and the red rescue tube in the middle of Dion’s controversial waterpark.

Yes, Celine Dion has a private lifeguard, sometimes two, when her St. Marys-born infant twins and son Rene-Charles decide to try out the lazy river, the two water slides or the two giants pools.

Littleton, 30, is a Palm Beach County Ocean Lifeguard and an EMT based at the Juno Beach Pier who moonlights as lifeguard at the pools of local celebrities.

“When you have 30 people having fun in and around the pool, you don’t want to have the burden of making sure everyone is ok,” Littleton said. “That’s my job.”

Littleton was assigned to Dion after she hired Lifeguard Services Inc., a local company that provides private lifeguards. According to published reports, the company charges $59 an hour per lifeguard. Dion hires them one or two weeks at a time, mostly when she has visitors.

Tiger Woods‘ secret divorce settlement may be so expensive that he had to mortgage his home to pay for it!

Official records that just popped up in Martin County hint that Woods will have to pay ex-wife Elin Nordegren $54 million by January 2016 — or risk losing the house he spent five years building.

How do I know?

The philandering club-swinger took out a $54 million mortgage Wednesday, two days after his quickie divorce was finalized in Panama City Aug. 23.

The mortgage holder, according to the records, is a shadowy company with no apparent capital, JRD Florida Ventures LLC. And the corporation’s registered agent is none other than one of his former wife’s six divorce lawyers, Dennis Belcher.

Woods, the mortgage shows, used the Jupiter Island property, Sand Turtle, to secure the loan — which means that Nordegren could end up with that Motel 6-style crib if he doesn’t pay up.

The document was notarized by Tom Sasser, Woods’ West Palm Beach-based divorce attorney.

Vanilla Ice, or Rob Van Winkle as is his legal name, said the DIY Network will broadcast the reality show — “sorta like ‘Pimp My Ride,’ except for houses” — starting in the fall.

The program will feature Van Winkle and his homies working on the property’s transformation.

“The previous owners took everything,” he told Page2Live. “They ripped out mirrors attached into the walls, the fridge, the files by the pool.

“At one point,the house was worth $2.4 million,” said the Wellington native, who has lived in the gated Versailles community for five years.

Van Winkle owns some two dozen rental properties in Palm Beach County.

He plans to re-list the finished property for $1.5 million.

For more a decade, this mansion on South Ocean Boulevard in Palm Beach was the weekend home of “Lord” Conrad Black, the owner of the Chicago Sun-Times, Jerusalem Post and a slew of large papers in Canada. Since 2008 and until Oct. 2013, however, he’ll be living at the Coleman Federal Correctional Institution near Orlando for dipping into his corporate assets for things like, well, this “British colonial” mansion. The 5-bedroom waterfront crib went up for sale this week, after Black, 65, transferred ownership to a Connecticut corporation in January when he defaulted on the mortgage. No price is listed, but the Palm Beach County Property Appraiser assessed the house at $32.6 million.
