Married Life With Sergey Brin, Children
To have a complete picture of Anne’s dating life until now, let's go back more than a decade. Her history with men starts sometime before 2007.
At the time, Anne was together with Sergey Brin, the co-founder of Google. They were married in 2007 and spent quite a long time together till 2013.
The couple even had two children - a boy and a girl - during their relationship. But, things started to take a turn for the worse when Anne discovered about Sergey’s extra-marital affair.
It was in 2013 that Anne found out her husband’s relationship with another woman at Google, Amanda Rosenberg.

Although Sergey's extra-marital affair with Amanda didn’t go anywhere beyond a hookup, Anne decided to separate from him. The ex-couple went their separate ways and started dating other people.
But, it was two long years before Anne’s divorce with Sergey was legally and officially confirmed. The ex-pair finally divorced in June 2015.
Despite ending the marriage, the co-parents still live close to each other to raise their two children. Anne and Sergey, however, had a prenuptial agreement in place, which didn’t affect Sergey’s company during their divorce settlement.
Dating Status After Divorce
Anne's life after divorce has certainly been eventful. A year after her divorce with Sergey, the entrepreneur was seen with another man. However, the guy wasn’t anywhere near like Sergey.
The new man in Anne’s life turned out to be a former baseball star, Alex Rodriguez. The pair started going out with each other in March 2016.

The couple dated for most of 2016, but there wasn’t something right about the pair. And Anne’s mother, Esther, knew exactly what was wrong with him.
Esther, according to a New York Times article about Anne, said the problem with Alex was that he had no academic background. She confessed that Anne’s family couldn’t have an intellectual conversation about anything with Alex. Ouch!
But, despite her mother’s slight objection with Alex, Anne and the former athlete had a good time together during their dating period. The couple split around February 2017.
Since the breakup, Alex has gone on to date Jennifer Lopez and even got engaged to her in March 2019.Â

Anne has also had a third child, although the child’s identity is not disclosed yet. She was eight months pregnant in April 2019, so one can assume that she has had the baby by now.
