All About Jeff Bezos’s Wife MacKenzie Scott
Jeff Bezos, who went to Princeton, began Amazon in 1993 in his garage. Before he started working at Amazon, Bezos met his ex-wife, MacKenzie Scott (Tuttle), in 1992. In 1993, they got married and moved to Seattle, where Amazon was founded.

Everything about Jeff Bezos’s kids
Jeff Bezos and MacKenzie Scott have three boys and one girl as children. The couple got their daughter from China, where she was born. Bezos likes to keep his children’s names private, but reports say that his 20-year-old son’s name is Preston Bezos.
Preston is the oldest child of the couple who is no longer together. He went to the same college as Bezos, Princeton. From what I’ve heard, Preston likes to travel and eat Mexican food.
Bezos and MacKenzie now have equal rights to their children. When asked in an interview what advice he would give his kids, Bezos said, “Be proud of what you’ve done, not what you’re good at. You have to figure out what you really like. And it will bring you a lot of happiness.”
Bezos’s four kids are all set to get some of his huge wealth in the future. Jeff kept 75% of Amazon’s shares after he and his ex-wife got a divorce, but MacKenzie got 25% of the shares. Bezos also gave MacKenzie 4% of his company.
