Sergey Brin, co-founder of Google and the world’s sixth-richest person with a net worth of $94 billion, has filed for divorce, making him the third multibillionaire in three years to end his marriage.
Mr Brin, 48, filed a petition for dissolution of his marriage to Nicole Shanahan earlier this month, citing “irreconcilable differences”, Bloomberg reported, quoting court documents.
The couple, who married in 2018 and have a daughter, requested that the divorce documents be sealed by the court for privacy reasons.
“Because of the high-profile nature of their relationship, there is likely to be significant public interest in their dissolution case and any potential child custody issues,” according to the filing in Santa Clara, California.
Mr Brin is the latest billionaire to face the prospect of an expensive divorce, joining Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, who ended his marriage with MacKenzie Scott in April 2019, and Bill Gates, who split with Melinda French last year.
