Facebook Founder Mark Zuckerberg, Wife Expecting Second Baby Girl

In a Facebook post, Zuckerberg, 32, announced the couple is expecting another baby girl, two years after the birth of daughter Maxima (Max) in 2015.

“Priscilla and I are happy to share we’re expecting another baby girl!

“After our difficult experience having Max, we weren’t sure what to expect or whether we’d be able to have another child. When Priscilla and I first found out she was pregnant again, our first hope was that the child would be healthy. My next hope was that it would be a girl. I cannot think of a greater gift than having a sister and I’m so happy Max and our new child will have each other.

“I grew up with three sisters and they taught me to learn from smart, strong women. They weren’t just my sisters but some of my best friends. They’ve gone on to write books, excel at performance, music, sports, cooking and their careers. They showed me how to compete and still laugh together afterwards.

After the birth of their first child the Silicon Valley power couple vowed to donate 99 per cent of their Facebook shares, worth billions, to charity in their lifetimes.
