Google Founder Sergey Brin finalizes Divorce to Anne Wojcicki two years after Adultery Case

   
Google's Sergey Brin finalizes divorce to Anne Wojcicki after having affair

Google founder Sergey Brin and his wife Anne Wojcicki (right) have officially called it quits, quietly divorcing last month.


The divorce comes a little over two years after Wojcicki, founder of the biotechnology company 23andMe, reportedly learned that her husband had been having an affair with Google employee Amanda Rosenberg (left).


A report from August 2013 in All Things D first revealed Brin and Wojcicki had split and said they had been living apart for a number of months. It is not clear when Brin started seeing Rosenberg, who was identified as his new love the same day by Valleywag, the Silicon Valley offshoot of Gawker.

The couple had been together since 1998. The magazine reported that in late 2012 or early 2013, Wojcicki, 41, discovered emails between the two, and that by April Brin had moved out of their home before announcing their separation in August.

Wojcicki remained in the couple's $7million Los Altos home with their two children.

Both have moved on since the split and dated other people. Brin lives in their second Los Altos home so they can raise their children as a team.
Many close to the former couple have said that Wojcicki was not interested in art or jewelry like some of the other Silicon Valley wives, and instead hoped to have a 'normalized life'.

A successful tech executive in her own right, she has raised more than $110million for her company, which is focused on human genomes.
Also bringing the pair together, despite the divorce, is the fact that Wojcicki's sister Susan heads up Google's YouTube business.

Details of the divorce are sparse, including how much of Brin's $30billion fortune Wojcicki walked away with in the settlement.
