Elizabeth Holmes first rose to prominence in 2014 as the CEO of healthcare start-up Theranos, but the entrepreneur became infamous about 20 months later, after being charged with an “elaborate years-long” fraud having duped millions.
Ahead of the release of HBO documentary The Inventor: Out for Blood in Silicon Valley on Sunday, which traces the rise and fall of the one-time Silicon Valley darling, it was revealed that Holmes, 35, is currently engaged.
Vanity Fair was the first to break the news, reporting in a February story that Holmes is currently living in San Francisco, and “engaged to a younger hospitality heir, who also works in tech” and graduated from M.I.T.
The Daily Mail went on to report that Holmes’ fiancé is William “Billy” Evans, 27, whose grandparents founded the Evans Hotel Group— which currently owns three major resorts in California.
According to the outlet, Evans graduated from college with a Bachelor’s Degree in Science and Economics, and has subsequently worked at LinkedIn and California-based company Luminar Technologiesthis link opens in a new tab.
