As per Bloomberg, the 52-year-old personality filed a petition at Washington’s King County Superior Court on September 26, 2022, which also stated the procedure for dividing the real estate and personal property.
The document read:
MacKenzie Scott and Dan Jewett secretly got married in March 2021 and separated more than a year later.
The duo first indicated marriage problems after Jewett’s name was nowhere to be seen in the novelist’s philanthropic endeavors. On the website of Bill Gates’ owned NGO, Giving Pledge, Dan’s letter was not seen with that of Scott.
MacKenzie Scott’s estranged husband has been a science teacher
According to his Giving Pledge bio, Dan Jewett has been a longtime teacher. Express UK reported that Jewett teaches science at Lakeside School, Seattle, where Scott’s children, whom she shares with ex-husband Jeff Bezos, currently study.
The Washington Post reported that the former duo first crossed each other’s paths at the school, where he taught Scott’s kids. One of the top co-ed high schools in the country, The Lakeside School costs more than $38,000 a year.
Before working at Lakeside School, Dan Jewett was a science teacher at Seattle’s The Bush School from 2011 to 2016.
Although not much is known about Dan and his personal life, a letter written on his Giving Pledge page states that he has been a teacher for “the majority” of his life and has expressed his gratitude for his students.
In the letter, Jewett also wrote about MacKenzie Scott and his efforts towards donating most of her wealth:
Her current net worth is $53 billion, out of which she has already donated $4 billion to charity.
