The couple had announced their union in 2021 via a message on the Giving Pledge website, a philanthropic organization which encourages the world’s richest people to give away a majority of their wealth to charitable causes. Scott has given away billions of dollars as part of a plan to donate a majority of her fortune, including to several central Pa. nonprofit organizations.
“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,” Jewett wrote in his 2021 message on Giving Pledge. “I look forward to the growth and learning I have ahead as a part of this undertaking with MacKenzie.”
The message appears to have since been removed from the Giving Pledge site and Scott has also deleted Jewett from her author bio on Amazon.Note to readers: if you purchase something through one of our affiliate links we may earn a commission.
