Among the standout moments was her birthday cake — a detailed creation designed to resemble a silver champagne bucket. A golden bottle labelled "Priscilla, Vintage 1985" was the centerpiece, paying tribute to her birth year. Reflecting on the occasion, she shared, “Turned forty surrounded by family, friends, laughter, and dance. I am so, so lucky to be so loved.”

Zuckerberg also compiled a montage of photos spanning their years together, adding to the celebration with a nostalgic touch.

A paediatrician by profession, she is deeply involved in the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, focusing on advancing scientific research and educational programs.

How Their Love Story Began

The couple’s journey dates back to their Harvard University days in 2003, where an unexpected encounter sparked their relationship. They first met at a fraternity party while waiting in line for the bathroom. Reminiscing about that moment, Zuckerberg once shared, “'Get Low' was playing when I first met Priscilla at a college party, so every year we listen to it on our dating anniversary.”

Their enduring partnership, built over two decades, remains a testament to their shared values and deep connection.
