Did Gary Vaynerchuk and his Separated Wife Lizzy Divorce?

Although Gary and Lizzy are yet to make an official statement regarding their divorce, it is generally accepted now that the former pair had a private divorce and are ex-husband and ex-wife. They married in 2004. 

However, until it's official, we cannot confirm if they are legally a married couple or just separated. 

Still, the speculation that Gary got a divorce from his spouse has been substantiated by his new relationship with his girlfriend Mona Vand. 

And it can be possible, given his private nature, that he doesn't want the divorce to be public knowledge. 

Marca reported that Lizzy was entitled to half of his massive net worth of $200 million if they divorced.

Even his separated wife, Lizzie, has followed suit.

However, Gary has revealed the reason he has rarely been seen with his kids in public places.

Back in 2015, the 47-year-old author published a blog titled 'BEFORE YOU QUESTION MY WORK/LIFE BALANCE, READ THIS' on his website.

Gary stated that he and Lizzie had decided not to disclose much about their kids in public through the blog. He added he would like to keep his children behind the curtains until they decide to come out in public by themselves.

"I would prefer to keep that part of my life private until they can decide," he wrote. "But it was my personal choice to make sure this part of my career, the public image, didn’t bring them into the limelight without it being their choice first."

Going by his statements, it seems that he is a doting and thoughtful father who does not like to make decisions about his children’s lives by himself only.
