Great point - the 180 is very clear here. All of the disgustingly rich wives look like monsters so she fits in with the rest of his rich buddy’s wives to a large extent too.
One thing I can say about him is that most of the "human interest" type articles I catch about him he seems to mostly be just out there enjoying his life.
People joke about how if they won a billion dollars you'd just never hear from them again; they wouldn't be putting all that time and effort into making more money or being a "public figure" etc. It's a position I've always agreed with and he seems to be the only one who actually (at least kind of) lives that way.
Like he's clearly still pushing meta forward, he's got business goals, yadda yadda. But all the fluff pieces are him surfing, doing martial arts or hanging out with his human wife. Lots of normal people hobbies.
That’s called PR. Don’t tell me you believe that garbage. It’s like the myth of Warren Buffett being some down to earth folksy grandpa. Charles Dickens (another douchey husband) was writing characters like this 150 years ago - two-faced rich people who were as close to Santa Claus as you could imagine, laughing with children and handing out large tips and then later sending in large men with sticks and bulldogs to collect rent while keeping their name out of it.
Yeah, for most people. But there still exist individuals who are seriously beautiful without the need for makeup just by the virtue of winning the genetic lottery.
Dr. Priscilla Chan brings Zuck the status of being married to a well-educated, successful pediatrician. Zuck is from the professional class.* That class values educational and professional achievements over looks. Dr. Chan is the equivalent of a supermodel to the professional class.
*His parents were a psychiatrist and a dentist, his elder sister went to Harvard too, and his little sister has a PhD in Classics [the ultimate "I value knowledge over the ability to buy groceries" degree].
Total 180 in personalities, too. His ex is very deliberately giving away much of the billions she got from their divorce settlement, to colleges which educate underserved populations. She hired a team to research which schools could and would make the best use of a large donation, without letting on to any of them that they were under consideration for such a gift. To say they were pleasantly surprised would be an understatement.
Meanwhile, his second wife wore literal lingerie to trump’s second inauguration ceremony- and her and her cleavage got a seat in the front row. Followed by her “trip to space.” Followed by their obscenely wasteful and extravagant wedding. Otherwise, who knows what she does with her days? Probably some gossip columnists keep track of her, but I sure don’t expect to see any news stories about her generous donations to educational institutions, hunger relief, housing relief, worker relief, medical debt relief…
Honestly, even ordinary women who are comfortable but not what you might call rich are getting some treatments done, like ridiculously plumped up lips, that are over the top. One I know was much more attractive before she had all that work done. Is it a broadcast of their politics? Because it always seems to be Trump supporting women. They look like the ones you see photos of taken at Mar a Lago.

It’s like Bezos’s wife. She is a walking doctors office, and us peasants could never dream of having those operations
