"Jeff Bezos and his wife MacKenzie are divorcing after 25 years of marriage, the Amazon CEO and Washington Post owner has announced, potentially leading to the costliest divorce settlement in history with $137 billion at stake."

The richest man in the world, currently worth about $137 billion, according to Bloomberg, made the divorce announcement on Wednesday on his Twitter.

[...]The split could lead [to] the costliest divorce is[sic] history, even if the couple doesn’t divide the money equally. There are no reports indicating the couple has a prenuptial agreement, meaning the wealth accumulated during their marriage would have to be split evenly.

Also covered by CBC, CNN, and CNBC among other news outlets.

    Did you post as AC? Cause I replied to the AC who assumed the wife was the problem, and what I quoted is not PR nonsense, there is no benefit to either of them in admitting an open relationship or that it is an amicable breakup.

    If you did not post as AC in reply to yourself then pay more attention to the thread hierarchy please.

    Probably replied to himself as AC, then forgot to click the checkbox that time.

    Whoops, yeah, I thought the above AC had said my comment was misogynist. Now I can see that was posted in response to a reply to my comment, not my comment itself.
