Dan Jewett and MacKenzie Scott have decided to go their separate ways.
According to court documents acquired by E! News on September 28, Scott filed for divorce from Jewett on September 26. Scott was previously married to Jeff Bezos before marrying Dan in 2021.
Scott is asking the court to maintain a separation agreement the couple reportedly signed. The assets, debts, property, and possessions will be divided according to the terms of the separation agreement.
Dan Jewett, according to the filings, agreed with Scott’s motion on September 19. When E! News reached out to Jewett’s attorney for comment, we heard crickets.
Forbes magazine ranked Scott as the fourth wealthiest woman on the planet in April, with an estimated net worth of $43.6 billion.
According to The Washington Post, she met Jewett through the Seattle school where her four children attended and where he taught science. In 2021, they said, “I do.”
Scott and Jeff Bezos, the founder and former CEO of Amazon, were married for 25 years before announcing their separation in 2018. They’ve got four kids together who don’t draw much attention.
“after a long time of loving inquiry and trial separation, we have chosen to split and continue our shared lives as friends,” Bezos and Scott said in a joint statement released in January 2019.
Bezos’s alleged hidden relationship with former Good Morning L.A. co-host Lauren Sanchez became public knowledge just hours after the couple announced their split.
After nearly four months of separation, in April of 2019, Bezos and Scott announced their divorce on Twitter. Sanchez and her ex-husband Patrick Whitesell finalized their divorce in October, and the divorce papers were filed the next day.
As for the current status of Sanchez and Bezos, Bezos and Sanchez’s relationship has gone public after each of them went through a divorce. In April 2022, they were seen on a double date with Pete Davidson and Kim Kardashian, who had recently broken up.
