Doug Jewett, 50, who teaches at Seattle’s private Lakeside School, which Bill Gates and Paul Allen attended back in the day, has married one of the parents (photo, left).
I suppose that happens more often than we hear about. This one made news because the parent in question is Jeff Bezos’ ex-wife.
She relieved him of a quarter of his Amazon stock in the split. That’s because they were married for 25 years and she was there when he founded Amazon from scratch and turned it into the corporate behemoth it is today. A woman who marries a guy who’s already rich, and made his bones without her help, could expect to get less than $35 billion (now $50-plus billion).

McKenzie Jewett seems like a very decent person. Last year, she donated over $4 billion to food banks and other Covid-relief charities. There’s no chance Jewett is a golddigger (read about him here). They were just two ships passing in the night.
As for Bezos, he reportedly has a girlfriend, but this blog does NOT allege he dumped his wife for a floozy, because — like Republican claims the 2020 election was “stolen” — there’s no evidence of that and this blog doesn’t believe it’s true. It was more complicated than that, and not necessarily in that manner. No doubt his GF is very nice, in addition to being extremely attractive (photo here).
If there’s a bad guy in that story, it’s David Pecker of the National Enquirer, who somehow obtained photos of Bezos and Lauren Sanchez together (read about that here).
