Who is Sheryl Sandberg’s husband, Tom Bernthal?
After Sheryl married Bernthal on Saturday, the public began to wonder about her husband Tom. Bernthal is the founder and former CEO of Kelton Global, a strategy consulting firm based in Los Angeles. Before joining Kelton in 2002, he served as a national producer for NBC News. He worked for the media company from 1996 to 2002, winning three Emmy Awards during that time. During his journalism career, he has collaborated with Today, Nightly News and Deadline, as well as with the MSNBC and CNBC networks.
His father, who was born in Washington, is an attorney at Latham & Watkins LLP and is currently chairman of the board of directors of the Humane Society of America. In addition, he has two older brothers, Jon and Nicholas. While Jon is an actor best known for playing the Punisher, Nicholas is an orthopedic surgeon and professor at UCLA.
How did Sheryl Sandberg and Tom Bernthal meet?
Sheryl (52) and Tom (50) were previously married to different people. While Sheryl’s husband Dave died suddenly of a heart attack, Tom was long divorced. However, it was Rob Goldberg, the brother of Sheryl’s late husband, who arranged the meeting and helped Tom and Sheryl connect. Rob once revealed to a reporter that he had known Bernthal since he was a personal friend and former producer of NBC News. He also said that he knew that Tom was looking for someone to live with after his divorce.
He also stated:
“Both of them come out of life’s difficult moments joyfully and eager to make their lives and the lives of their children better.”
In fact, in 2021, when announcing the recipients of the Dave Goldberg Scholarship, a program founded by the family in honor of Dave, Bernthal spoke of her friendship with Sheryl’s late husband, saying:
“As one of the lucky few to have known Dave personally, I have now experienced first-hand how this show embodies his ethos of giving people the chance to work hard and achieve anything they can imagine.”
Sandberg, who is leaving Meta’s executive position this September, has previously said that she can’t imagine getting back together let alone getting married. Tom said the same thing in a recent Instagram post announcing his marriage to Sheryl Sandberg.
He shared a photo with the caption:
“After we’ve both experienced loss, Sheryl and I aren’t sure we’ll ever find love again.” We have integrated our lives and families for the past three years. Today’s wedding is a dream come true.”
Sheryl, who has a daughter and a son, and Tom, who has three children, announced to everyone that “all seven of us are getting married.” Instead of wedding gifts, the couple asked guests to give gifts to VOW and CARE, two organizations that support efforts to combat child marriage and reduce poverty.
