Laurene Powell Jobs, the widow of Apple co founder Steve Jobs, is reportedly dating former Washington DC Mayor Adrian Fenty. The Washington Post’s Reliable Source blog reported the news in August 2013, and other outlets followed.
According to the reports, the two met at an education conference in Houston in 2011, the same year Steve Jobs passed away, and bonded over their shared interest in school reform. Fenty, who served as DC mayor from 2007 to 2011, later joined the board of College Track, a college prep nonprofit that Powell Jobs co founded. He joined in February 2012.
When Fenty joined the board, Powell Jobs said in a statement that he is “one of our country’s great advocates for education reform.” Neither of them had commented publicly on the dating reports at the time they surfaced.
In pop culture news tied to the late Apple co founder, the film “Jobs,” starring Ashton Kutcher as Steve Jobs, was set to hit theaters on Friday, August 16. Will you be watching?
