Love makes all the difference: 4 billionaires who chose "ordinary" women as their wives, breaking stereotypes. Photo.
It's true what they say - life is not about a beautiful appearance, but about a rich inner world. This is proven by such famous personalities as Larry Page, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg and Jack Ma. When they chose their companions, they did not take into account their status, position in society, or popularity.
OBOZREVATEL will tell four love stories between successful businessmen and ordinary girls. They claim to be happily married (to see the photos, scroll to the bottom of the page).
Larry Page
Larry Page, an American programmer, developer, and co-founder of the Google search engine, got married for the first time at the age of 34. The businessman met his wife Lucinda Southworth at Stanford University, where she was studying for a doctorate in biomedical informatics. The holder of three degrees gave the billionaire two children. A son was born in 2009 and a daughter in 2011. The names and other information about the heirs are still carefully concealed by their parents. Before meeting Paige, Lucinda lived a measured life and was not popular.
Jeff Bezos
In September 2018, the American entrepreneur, founder of the Internet company Amazon, Jeff Bezos celebrated 25 years of marriage with Mackenzie Scott in Miami, and on 9 January 2019, he announced his divorce from her. The 49-year-old TV presenter Lauren Sanchez became the rich man's new passion. To leave her, Bezos had to give his ex-wife $39 billion. By the way, Jeff's beloved has a pilot's licence and starred in the film Fight Club. But this did not bring her fame.
Mark Zuckerberg
Mark Zuckerberg, the co-founder of Meta, has never chased girls with model looks and Instagram values. In 2012, at the age of 28, he married his long-time girlfriend Priscilla Chan. The couple met at Harvard. Instead of investing in her own appearance, the entrepreneur's beloved is engaged in charity projects. The couple have three daughters, Maksima (born 2 December 2015), August (born 28 August 2017) and Aurelia (born 24 March 2023).
Jack Ma
Jack Ma, a Chinese entrepreneur and founder of the Alibaba Group (AliExpress), is one of the twenty richest people in the world. He married his classmate Zhang Wei, who was a modest, unknown girl before marriage. She pays little attention to her appearance, although she has everything she needs to do so. The couple have a son, Ma Yuankun, and a daughter, Ma Yuanbao.
