My first reaction: "Why is this even news?!?" Then after I RTFA... "The billionaire executive announced the news Wednesday ... in a tweet signed by both of them." Oh. Despite that, I'm not sure what there is for us at HN to discuss. Maybe how divorce effects successful businesses?

HN has plenty of threads about how relationships and other life factors affect work and business.

I hate the gossipy implications of these stories, and they're legitimately sad news, but there is plenty to discuss that is relevant to HN - How this could impact Amazon, Blue Origin, etc - How challenging relationships are - How difficult it is to stay together through major life changes, in this case they married before Amazon and are splitting now with Amazon being one of the worlds largest companies... imagine that journey together? - How divorce/breakups effect people - How relationships/divorce/breakups effect businesses, financial decisions etc
