However, that was not always the case. In 1999, Google was about to be sold to Excite in less than $1million.

Sergey married 23andMe CEO Anne Wojcicki in May 2007. The couple tied the knot in a private ceremony with just about 60 guests. Together, Sergey and Anne became one of the most powerful couples. They even gave birth to two children: a son named Beji Wojin, and a daughter, Chloe Wojin.

The pair were a perfect family, but the happiness didn't last long. In 2013, the news of Sergey's relationship with another woman surfaced. The woman in question was 26 years old Amanda Rosenberg, who worked as marketing manager at Google.

Although the affair was not confirmed, it led to the divorce between Sergey and Anne in April 2015.

Since both of them were financially secured business personalities, the couple had signed a prenup before getting married. So, nothing surfaced about the divorce settlements. However, Anne remained in the couple's $7 million Los Altos house with their two children. 

After the divorce, both Sergey and Anne moved on with their lives. Anne went on to date the New York Yankee’s hitter, Alex Rodriguez for a short time. And, Sergey started dating the founder and CEO of a patent technology company called ClearAccessIP, Nicole Shanahan.
