The couple met in 2003 while standing in a bathroom line at a college party; they tied the knot in 2012
Mark and Priscilla first crossed paths while standing in line for the bathroom at a college party in 2003. The tech wizard was still a Harvard student at the time.
"He was this nerdy guy who was just a little bit out there," she was quoted telling The New Yorker. "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 Meta Mogul welcomed three daughters, Maxima, August, and Aurelia, with his college sweetheart
The pair tied the knot in 2012 and have since welcomed three daughters, Maxima, August, and Aurelia.
To mark two decades since their first date, Mark shared a throwback photo of them with a heartwarming caption.
“We met at a going away party my friends threw for me in college when they thought I was about to get kicked out of school,” he wrote. “I asked her out but told her we'd need to go out soon since I might only have a few days left. Later on I started Facebook, we got married, and now have three wonderful girls. What a wild ride.”
