Who knew Mark Zuckerberg could be so romantic?
The Facebook CEO and billionaire has sent fans online into a frenzy after revealing an incredibly sweet, yet admittedly mind-boggling, gift he helped make for his wife.
Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan have been married for over a decade and share three daughters together, Maxima, August, and Aurelia.

Taking to his Instagram earlier today, Zuckerberg shared a sweet photo of his wife posing next to a giant sculpture of her situated in the couple's backyard.
The more-than-life-size sculpture was designed by artist Daniel Arsham who specializes in sculpture-making for both design and wear.
Zuckerberg captioned the post with, "Bringing back the Roman tradition of making sculptures of your wife. Thanks @/danielarsham."
The lifelike statue is a light blue color and has a silver cloak draping around its body.
The design of it makes Chan look like an astounding angel in the couple's own backyard.
Fans are evidently losing it over the romantic gesture with one user writing on Twitter, "I apologize Mark, I wasn't familiar with your game."
Another added, "Ok I gotta respect this cause that's awesome. But he just raised the bar for the rest of us."
Zuckerberg previously spoke on his relationship with Chan in a 2022 episode of The Joe Rogan Podcast and shared how doing philanthropy work together changed their relationship.
"It’s been really cool getting the chance to work with my wife Priscilla on this, it’s opened up a whole new side of our relationship, where it’s like we were partners and now we also get to work together," he said.
"She’s brilliant, she’s a doctor and understands so many more things about biological science than I do and I can bring this whole engineering perspective, and we learn so much from doing that together," he continued.
The couple also celebrated their 20th anniversary together as partners in 2023.
In a post shared to Facebook Zuckerberg wrote, "20 years since our first date. We met at a going away party my friends threw for me in college when they thought I was about to get kicked out of school.
"I asked her out but told her we'd need to go out soon since I might only have a few days left. Later on I started Facebook, we got married, and now have three wonderful girls. What a wild ride."
