Jeff Bezos And MacKenzie Scott
You knew this would be the biggest right? The wealthiest man in the world, who is to become a trillionaire by 2030, was always going to top the list.
Amazon’s owner had been with MacKenzie Scott since 1993 before Amazon had even started.
She stuck with Jeff during those early days when he would be working long hours trying to set up his online delivery service and supported him during the tough times.
But after 25 years of marriage, it was revealed that Bezos was cheating on his wife.
This was destined to be the biggest divorce in history and made MacKenzie one of the richest women in the world overnight, with nearly a $40 billion settlement reached.
Jeff is still getting by, as he is now worth $180 billion.
Estimated settlement: $38 billion *
