据知情人士透露，慈善家麦肯齐·斯科特曾嫁给亚马逊公司创始人杰夫·贝索斯，她在2019年与贝索斯离婚后再次结婚。

这位知情人士说，斯科特是世界上最富有的女性之一，她嫁给了西雅图一所私立学校的科学教师丹·朱伊特。

斯科特最近把大部分时间都花在了慈善事业上，造福于女性领导的慈善机构、食品银行和黑人大学等机构。根据她去年12月在Medium上写的一篇帖子，自离婚以来，斯科特已经捐出了40多亿美元的财产。

斯科特上周六在“裸捐誓言”网站的主页上发表了一篇署名文章，朱伊特在斯科特的承诺上签了名。“裸捐誓言”是为那些承诺将大部分财富捐赠给慈善事业的亿万富翁设立的网站。

朱伊特在帖子中说，“写一封信表明我打算在有生之年捐出大部分财富，这很奇怪，因为我从来没有攒过那种让我觉得说这样的话会有特殊意义的财富。”

“丹是一个非常好的人，我为他们俩感到高兴和兴奋，”亚马逊发言人提供的一份声明中，贝索斯说。

记者周日无法立即联系到斯科特和朱伊特置评。

斯科特和贝索斯都毕业于普林斯顿大学，两人是在纽约一家对冲基金工作时相识的。1994年，她帮助他创办了亚马逊，是两本小说的作者。她的亚马逊作者页面现在说，她“与四个孩子和丈夫丹住在西雅图”。

2019年他们离婚时，结婚25年的贝索斯是世界上最富有的人，他持有亚马逊16%以上的股份。作为离婚协议的一部分，斯科特获得了亚马逊4%的股份，不过贝索斯保留了这些股份的投票权。

斯科特于2019年5月加入“裸捐誓言”，当时她与贝索斯的离婚条款刚刚敲定。这一誓言由比尔·盖茨夫妇和沃伦·巴菲特于2010年发起。贝索斯还没有加入这项承诺。

亚马逊的业务一直是疫情的主要受益者，推高了其股价。根据《福布斯》和彭博社的财富排行榜，贝索斯在与埃隆·马斯克争夺过一段时间后，再次成为世界上最富有的人，净资产约为1770亿美元。斯科特以约530亿美元的资产排名第22位。

朱伊特先生是湖边学校的一名教师，根据学校的网站。

朱伊特先生在他的捐赠誓词中说：“巧合的是，我嫁给了我所认识的最慷慨、最善良的人之一，并与她一起承诺将巨额财富传递给他人。”

MacKenzie Scott, the philanthropist formerly married toJeff Bezos, has married again following her 2019 divorce from theAmazon.com Inc.founder, according to a person familiar with the matter.

Ms. Scott, one of the world’s wealthiest women, has married Dan Jewett, a science teacher at a Seattle private school, according to the person.

Ms. Scott has devoted much of her time recently to philanthropic efforts benefiting women-led charities, food banks and Black colleges, among other institutions. Since her divorce, Ms. Scott has given away more than $4 billion of her fortune, according to a post she wrote on Medium in December.

In a post dated Saturday on Ms. Scott’s page on the Giving Pledge website, for billionaires who have promised to donate most of their fortune to philanthropic efforts, Mr. Jewett signed on to her commitment.

“It is strange to be writing a letter indicating I plan to give away the majority of my wealth during my lifetime, as I have never sought to gather the kind of wealth required to feel like saying such a thing would have particular meaning,” Mr. Jewett’s post says.

“Dan is such a great guy, and I am happy and excited for the both of them,” said Mr. Bezos in a statement provided by an Amazon spokesman.

Ms. Scott and Mr. Jewett couldn’t immediately be reached for comment on Sunday.

Ms. Scott and Mr. Bezos, both Princeton University graduates, met while working at a hedge fund in New York. She helped him start Amazon in 1994, and is the author of two novels. Her Amazon author page now says that she “lives in Seattle with her four children and her husband, Dan.”

At the time of their 2019 divorce, after 25 years of marriage, Mr. Bezos was the wealthiest person in the world, with his stake of more than 16% of Amazon. Ms. Scott received 4% of Amazon’s shares as part of their divorce settlement, though Mr. Bezos kept voting rights for those shares.

Ms. Scott joined the Giving Pledge in May 2019, shortly after terms of her divorce with Mr. Bezos were finalized. The pledge was started by Bill and Melinda Gates and Warren Buffett in 2010. Mr. Bezos hasn’t joined the pledge.

Amazon’s business has been a major beneficiary of the pandemic, driving up its stock price. Mr. Bezos, after jostling for a time with Elon Musk for the title, again ranks as the world’s richest person, with a net worth of around $177 billion, according to wealth rankings by Forbes and Bloomberg. Ms. Scott ranks the 22nd richest person, at around $53 billion.

Mr. Jewett is a teacher at Lakeside School, according to the school’s website.

“In a stroke of happy coincidence, I am married to one of the most generous and kind people I know—and joining her in a commitment to pass on an enormous financial wealth to serve others,” Mr. Jewett said in his Giving Pledge letter.
