Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan met at Harvard.
Zuckerberg went on to start Facebook, and Chan graduated medical school and became a pediatrician.
After nearly 10 years of dating, they got married in a surprise outdoor ceremony in 2012.
At the time of writing, they have since welcomed three daughters and started a philanthropic organization together.
For starters, there’s the family dog, Beast.
“The dog is [Mark’s] second priority after Facebook,” Chan jokingly toldTodayin 2014.
She revealed that her husband spent at least 30 minutes every day talking to Beast.
“He’s so smart.
We’ve been told that he’s quite gifted.”
One day later, Mark Zuckerberg announced onFacebookthat he and his long-time girlfriend Priscilla Chan were officially married.
Many couldn’t help but notice the timing of their marriage.
“I wanted to be with our team when things got rocky…
Instead, I promised Priscilla that every year we’d have a honeymoon to celebrate our marriage.”
It seems that the billionaire finally caught up with some more updated trends.
Meanwhile, Meta has faced multiple controversies.
He posted his wife’s response as a screenshot in an Instagram story (viaThe Independent).
“Did you see the octagon I put in the backyard?”
Chan replied, “Yes, I saw it.”
He further wrote that it looked awesome.
However, Chan didn’t sound too thrilled.
“Mark,” she wrote.
“I have been working on that grass for two years.”
The couple couldn’t agree on the fighting ring.
Some pointed out how Zuckerberg could’ve hired a local artist to support the art community.
Others saw the statue as a reflection of the tech billionaire’s taste and psych.
“Does it reveal anything about Chan’s role, her personality, her heroism?
Those in Northern California would spend more than $32,000.
Instead of renting an expensive venue, they hosted the wedding in-house at their Palo Alto estate.
Despite not spending a ton of money on their wedding, the day turned out to be extra special.
“When they showed up at our home, I told them we were getting married.
It was a great day.”
He recalled launching the prank website Facemash and being called to the ad board.
Thinking he was going to get kicked out, Zuckerberg started packing for a trip home.
His friends threw him a farewell party, during which he met the love of his life.
However, as romantic as it sounded, theirlove at first sightalso included two full bladders.
“We met in line for the bathroom in the Pfoho Belltower,” Zuckerberg said.
The founder of Facebook also urged the graduating class to use his pickup line for good luck.
While talking toCBS Mornings, Chan recalled their first date.
“There was a major red flag,” she said.
““I’m a pop in-A student.
While Zuckerberg meant it as a compliment, it triggered an alarm in Chan.
Given the situation, Chan had a point.
“No one in their wildest dreams would imagine that this is what would happen.”
On the day Max was born, their new initiative was born as well.
As Chan explained: “[Mark said] ‘Does this make sense?
Should I move this paragraph up?’
and I said, ‘Honey, we’re done.
The baby is here.
The letter is complete.'”
These contracts can be thought of as precursors to traditional prenups, which establish certain rules in a marriage.
After Zuckerberg dropped out of Harvard, he moved to Silicon Valley to develop Facebook.
Chan then followed him to California, but not without negotiating a few terms for herself.
“Each party has a chance to draw a line in the sand or negotiate,” Roberts said.
“It’s not based on economic earnings but on relationship capital.”
Zuckerberg also agreed on drawing clear lines between work and personal time.
When this went public in 2017, Zuckerberg faced intense backlash for trying to colonize the island.
While he has since promised to work with the locals, it didn’t stop his pursuits.
“And we have this whole new economy that is basically serving at the rich peoples’ whims.
I don’t know how stable those kinds of jobs are.”
