The couple exchanged vows in 2012
The couple tied the knot in May 2012 after their long romantic relationship in their Palo Alto backyard. Many were surprised to know about their marriage since they anticipated it was a celebration of Chan’s graduation from UCSF medical school. They recently recreated one of the moments from 2012, while celebrating their 10th wedding anniversary together. "10 years married and half our lives together, here’s to more adventures," Zuckerberg captioned. "And the same photo from our wedding 10 years ago!" in another.
It all began back in 2003
The pair’s love story started in 2003 when they started dating after meeting in line for the bathroom at a party at Zuckerberg's Harvard University fraternity when he was a sophomore and Chan was still a freshman. "He was this nerdy guy who was just a little bit out there," Chan remembered while talking with New Yorker in 2010 of their meeting. "I remember he had these beer glasses that said 'pound include beer dot H.' It's a tag for C++. It's like college humor but with a nerdy, computer-science appeal."
The proud parents of two daughters launched the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative together in 2015, where they have pledged 99 percent of their fortune to causes including improving education and curing disease with research technology.
