Mark Bezos, the younger half-brother of Jeff Bezos, attended the Amazon founder’s pre-wedding celebration in Venice with his wife, Lisa Bezos. Dressed in a sharp black tuxedo, Mark gave off the vibe of a Hollywood star.

Many say he bears a strong resemblance to actors like Bruce Willis and even Dwayne Johnson, known as “The Rock" for his WWE fans.

Who Is Mark Bezos?

Mark Bezos is no Hollywood actor, yet he was seen mingling with celebrities and wealthy guests who attended Jeff Bezos’ wedding in Venice.

Like his older half-brother Jeff, Mark is a businessman, but he stays out of the spotlight and prefers working behind the scenes. In 1996, he decided to support Jeff and Amazon, keeping with some family traditions. That year, according to Bloomberg, he bought 30,000 Amazon shares for $10,000, just like their sister Christina. If he had kept those shares, they would have been worth around $640 million by 2018.

Mark is also known for his charitable work as he is a director at Robin Hood, a well-known New York City organisation focused on fighting poverty. Alongside his philanthropy, he co-founded HighPost Capital, a private equity firm that focuses on consumer brands.
