Bezos was previously married to MacKenzie Scott, and the two got divorced in 2019.
Over the years, the Amazon founder has given high priority to the privacy of his children. He has shared that their eldest son was born in 2000 and is named Preston. Notably, Jeff Bezos' middle name is Preston. He and Scott gave this name to their eldest child. The moniker got passed on from his great-grandfather, Lloyd Preston Gise, to his grandfather, Lawrence Preston Gise.
According to USA Today, the names and birth dates of his two other sons and one daughter have never been made public.
Earlier, it was revealed that Bezos was dependent on Scott, a novelist, to raise his children when he was busy working on Amazon. In a 2013 interview with Vogue, she said that kids have an 'urgent need to be taken care of.' She noted that she was unable to continue writing after the third child, as "those years were just too busy."
Bezos has often spoken about how his father, Miguel 'Mike', served as a major inspiration for him. At a May 2022 event, he said that people can find "deep optimism and a deep resilience" in every immigrant.
To date, there is very little information known about Bezos and Scott's four children as they live out of the spotlight.
