World’s 5th-richest billionaire Mark Zuckerberg and wife Priscilla Chan make rare appearance at Milan Fashion Week’s Prada show

Zuckerberg, 42, and Chan, 41, were seated in the front row as Prada unveiled its Fall/Winter 2026-2027 collection on Feb. 26, according to People magazine.

Zuckerberg wore a tan collared long-sleeve shirt paired with brown pants, while Chan chose a gray sweater and navy slacks. She completed her look with a simple diamond necklace and wore her dark hair in an updo with loose face-framing strands.

According to Business Insiderthe couple sat next to Lorenzo Bertelli, son of Prada co-creative director Miuccia Prada.

“Thanks to Prada for having us in Milan!” Zuckerberg later wrote on Instagram, alongside photos of him and Chan at the show.

Their appearance comes amid reports that Meta is collaborating with Prada on high-end smart glasses.

CNBC reported in June last year that Meta and eyewear giant EssilorLuxottica plan to release AI-powered smart glasses under the Oakley and Prada brands.

Meta first partnered with EssilorLuxottica in 2019 to develop Ray-Ban smart glasses. The companies launched the first version in 2021, followed by a second-generation model in 2023 featuring a Meta AI voice assistant and enhanced capabilities. Details of a Prada-branded product line have not yet been announced.

Zuckerberg and Chan met at a party while attending Harvard University in 2003 and married in 2012. They have three children together.

In 2004, Zuckerberg co-founded Facebook as a campus-based network that allowed students to connect names with photos of their classmates. The company later evolved into Meta Platforms, which now operates a portfolio of social media and communications services, including Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger, Threads and Manus.

As of March 1, Forbes estimated Zuckerberg’s net worth at US$222.3 billion, ranking him the world’s fifth-richest person.
