Mark Zuckerberg, the man behind Facebook, celebrated turning 40 on May 14. His wife, Priscilla Chan, surprised him with little replicas of the places he has lived and worked throughout his life to mark the event. Seldom-seen images of Mark and Priscilla’s three kids, Aurelia, Augusta, and Maxima, were posted on social media.
Zuckerberg seldom shares pictures of his kids on social media, and when he does, he usually uses emoticons to hide the older girls’ faces.
While Priscilla holds newborn Aurelia and looks lovingly at her family, Augusta, and Maxima, clothed in white, investigate the tiny recreations of their father in the pictures. In one very touching picture, Zuckerberg is shown in his former nursery, where he originally started studying programming.
“Happy with my first forty years! In the caption, Zuckerberg stated, “Priscilla threw me a little party and recreated some of the places I used to live.” Another famous picture shows Bill Gates in a scale replica of Mark’s Harvard dorm room, perched on a little red sofa.
Being a hands-on parent who invests a significant amount of time in raising his kids, Mark Zuckerberg is well-known. He stresses how crucial it is to have faith in your kids. “Avoid forcing your beliefs on them or attempting to dictate how they should live. Rather, acknowledge their assets and provide encouragement and support for their interests, he suggests.
Zuckerberg furthered his image as the ideal father in the summer of 2023 when he brought his two girls to a Taylor Swift performance. Using the hashtag “The life of a girl’s daddy” to describe event images, he shared this experience on social media.
