Mackenzie Scott, Jeff Bezos ex-wife, divorces her husband

OP- In other news Amazon has decided to buy the grocery chain called Whole Foods.

R1….

That didn't take long.

I'll admit it. I do wonder if she gave him "go away" money. And how much.

I must be super ugly or a horrible person; 55, female and never been married. Not even asked once.

That's embarassing. I wonder if the 2nd marriage was a rebound.

A way to look good after being dumped by Bill Gates in a very public humiliating way.

What?

This thread went off the rails quickly. Kinda like the marriage.

And r4, you're neither ugly nor a horrible person.

I know you'd have liked to have found out for yourself, but married people just have a different set of problems.

It's a lot of work, monogamy, and I don't know that the pay-off, whatever that is, is worth it.

Thanks r6, I’ve always found it easier to work and take care of myself, rather than constantly stoke some guys ego or be his cheerleader, in hopes he would do it.

The breakup punctuates an eventful period for Ms. Scott, who in less than four years got divorced from her longtime husband, the Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, gave away more than $12 billion to nonprofits and married an instructor at the prestigious school attended by her children...... Dan Jewett, a former science teacher, and Scott are parting ways.

So, do you think Dan will go back to teaching???

Pre nup? Even Jerry Hall lasted longer. How bad was he? Will he get $100mm at least?

"A way to look good after being dumped by Bill Gates"

She's never been married to Bill Gates.

She'll range further than the PTA to find #3.

That's too bad, I thought she and her husband seemed well matched. He continued teaching even after the marriage, I thought.
