Philanthropist MacKenzie Scott, one of the world’s richest people, has re-married after her 2019 divorce from Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos.
Seattle teacher Dan Jewett acknowledged his marriage to Scott this weekend on the couple’s webpage for the Giving Pledge, a philanthropic organization which encourages the world’s richest people to dedicate a majority of their wealth to charitable causes.
“I am married to one of the most generous and kind people I know — and joining her in a commitment to pass on an enormous financial wealth to serve others,” Jewett wrote. “I look forward to the growth and learning I have ahead as a part of this undertaking with MacKenzie.”
The Wall Street Journal first reported the marriage Sunday. Her Amazon biography also notes that Scott “lives in Seattle with her four children and her husband, Dan.”
