Billionaire Seattle philanthropist MacKenzie Scott has reportedly filed for divorce from Dan Jewett, the science teacher she married in March 2021, according to The New York Times, which cited a court filing this week.
Scott, 52, is a novelist with a net worth of $34.9 billion, according to Forbes. Bloomberg puts the number at $27.8 billion, and has her ranked No. 41 on its index of the world’s richest people.
In the time since her divorce from Bezos, Scott has given away more than $12 billion to a wide range of charitable and nonprofit organizations. The effort is part of her commitment to The Giving Pledge, in which the ultra-rich publicly pledge to give the majority of their wealth to philanthropy.
Jewett’s commitment was previously on a web page featuring Scott’s Pledge letter. A photograph of Scott and Jewett together is also gone.
