Former DC Mayor Romance With Steve Jobs Widow

Former DC Mayor Romance With Steve Jobs Widow

Damn she’s still wearing her wedding ring, and he just separated (divorce not final) his beautiful black wife of 15 years in January…

According to Washington Post:

Looks as if Adrian Fenty took the phrase “Go West, young man” to heart — and has done very well for himself. Last year, the former D.C. mayor scored a plum job with Andreessen Horowitz, one of Silicon Valley’s hottest venture capital firms. Now we’ve learned that Fenty is dating Laurene Powell Jobs, the billionaire widow of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. The two met at a Houston education conference in 2011 and bonded over a shared passion for school reform. In February 2012, Fenty joined the board of College Track, a non-profit college prep program for underserved students co-founded by Powell Jobs.

“Adrian Fenty is one of our country’s great advocates for education reform,” she said in a statement when he joined the board. “His sense of urgency and record of accomplishment is unparalleled.”

Sources tell us the relationship began as a friendship and blossomed into a “budding romance” around the time Fenty and his wife, Michelle, formally announced their separation in January. The Fenty marriage had been rumored to be on the rocks for months; there’s no indication that Powell Jobs had any role in the split. (The divorce is close to completion but not yet finalized.)

If you don’t know much about Powell Jobs, 49, you’re not alone. While the world obsessed about all things Apple and Steve Jobs, his wife of 20 years deliberately maintained a very low profile. When Jobs died in October 2011, the businesswoman and mother of three inherited an estate of about $10 billion — mostly Apple and Disney stock — making her one of the richest women in America.

$10 Billion…

Here’s all the details on his separation from wife back in January of this year…

Via Washington Post:

Former D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty and his wife Michelle after 15 years of marriage, friends of the couple have told the Post. Unclear if they plan to divorce; the split, which we’re told happened several weeks ago, was first reported by City Paper. Since losing a reelection bid two years ago, the former mayor has consulted for tech and venture-capital companies and largely stayed out of the spotlight; his lawyer wife last year was promoted at the Inter-American Development Bank. The couple, who did not return calls, have twin sons, 12, and a four-year-old daughter.

Interesting…
