She met him while working as his assistant at D. E. Shaw in 1992; after three months of dating in New York they married and moved to Seattle, Washington, in 1994.
They have four children: three sons and one daughter adopted from China.
Their communal property divorce in 2019 left Scott with US$35.6 billion in Amazon stock while her ex-husband retained 75% of the couple’s Amazon stock.
She became the third-wealthiest woman in the world and one of the wealthiest people overall in April 2019.
In July 2020, Scott was ranked the 22nd-richest person in the world by Forbes with a net worth estimated at $36 billion.
By September 2020, Scott was named the world’s richest woman, and by December 2020, her net worth was estimated at $62 billion.
After her divorce from Jeff Bezos, Mackenzie Bezos changed her name to Mackenzie Scott, with the surname derived from her middle name.
Scott is married to high school chemistry teacher Dan Jewett.
The marriage was revealed in Jewett’s Giving Pledge letter posted on March 6, 2021.
MacKenzie Scott met Jeff Bezos while working under him at the New York City hedge fund company, DE Shaw.
They fell in love and got married in 1993, after a brief courtship. Thereafter, they moved to Seattle, Washington.
It was here that her husband started his venture of online marketing and later founded the world’s largest online retailer, Amazon.com.
They have three sons and an adopted daughter.
In January 2019, the couple announced their intention to separate and their divorce got finalized on April 4, 2019.
As part of divorce deal, MacKenzie Scott got 25% in Amazon stock, which was worth $35.6 billion at that time, making her the third richest woman in the world.
In 2021, she got married to Dan Jewitt, a high school science teacher and presently lives in Seattle with him and her four children.
She is a signatory to ‘Giving Pledge’ campaign and has pledged to donate at least half of her wealth to charity.
Although MacKenzie was born in an affluent family, her family riches deteriorated after her father filed for bankruptcy in 1987.
While studying at Princeton, MacKenzie did a wide variety of odd jobs including dishwasher, waitress, clothing salesperson, and deli cashier to fund her education.
In an interview, her mentor at Princeton Toni Morrison described her as
one of the best students I’ve ever had in my creative-writing classes . . . really one of the best.”
MacKenzie founded an anti-bullying organization called Bystander Revolution in 2014.
According to some media tabloids, the reason behind the divorce of MacKenzie and Jeff was Jeff’s alleged affair with the American news anchor Lauren Sánchez.
