Jeff Bezos Is Getting A Divorce

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his wife MacKenzie are getting divorced. The billionaire businessman announced the news via Twitter. 

“We want to make people aware of a development in our lives,” he shared. “As our family and close friends know, after a long period of loving exploration and trial separation, we have decided to divorce and continue our shared lives as friends.”

According to Forbes, Jeff is worth $136.6 billion, which basically means MacKenzie is walking away a very happy woman with a very lucrative settlement, we imagine. 

The news comes after controversy surrounding Amazon’s announcement that they’ll be building more headquarters in New York City and Washington, D.C., which is expected to hike up the rent in surrounding neighborhoods. Perhaps the new changes were interrupting their pillow talk? Who’s to say.
