Billionaire Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon, has 4 children with his ex-wife MacKenzie Scott. Of these, the billionaire has an only daughter and also the only adopted child named Annie.
In 2006, Jeff Bezos and his ex-wife, MacKenzie Scott, decided to expand their family by adopting a baby girl from an orphanage in China. This act not only showed the power couple’s kindness but also brought a whole new life to the unfortunate girl. From an orphan, the little girl named Annie entered a completely different world, where she was loved, cared for and had access to the best conditions.
However, Jeff and MacKenzie Scott have always kept their adopted daughter a secret. Over the years, the public has had almost no information about her. There are no photos, no interviews, except for a single appearance with the whole family when she was a teenager, Annie has almost never appeared in public. This “invisibility” shows billionaire Bezos’ determination to protect the privacy of his adopted daughter and his other three children, helping them have as normal a life as possible, away from excessive public attention.

The only time the Chinese orphan was mentioned was in an article by Walter Isaacson, Jeff Bezos’ biographer. In the article, Isaacson only mentioned that Bezos adopted a girl from China, but did not provide any further details. This added to the mystery surrounding Annie. Even the name of the Bezos daughter, Annie, has never been confirmed, but is a name that international media have used.
According to some sources, in 2006, Jeff Bezos, the billionaire founder of Amazon, visited China to learn about the market there. During his trip to Hunan province, through the introduction of a friend, he met a girl who had been orphaned since birth and raised in a social welfare center.
The little girl did not hesitate to call Mr. Bezos “uncle” when they first met, even though they did not know each other. Perhaps this is what made Jeff Bezos feel a special connection with the little girl, and later, he and his ex-wife decided to adopt her. The little girl was later named Annie and moved to the US to live.
Although information about this rich kid is very limited, it can be imagined that Annie had a completely different life compared to other orphans when she was lucky enough to grow up in one of the richest and most powerful families in the world, having access to the best conditions for education and care. According to some sources, Annie and her brothers were given 50,000 USD (nearly 1.3 billion VND) per week for spending during their teenage years.
After divorcing in 2019, the Amazon billionaire and his ex-wife share custody of their children.
In the future, this Chinese girl is likely to become one of the heirs to 1/4 of Jeff Bezos’ fortune. Recently, there was information that the only daughter of the Amazon billionaire will appear in the public with a new role in a movie called “The Golden Door” invested by Jeff Bezos’s fiancee – Lauren Sanchez.
However, Jeff Bezos has always tried to keep information about his children private and rarely let them appear in public. Therefore, the appearance of the little girl in this movie is still a mystery.
