Reports reveal that Google co-founder Sergey Brin and 23andMe founder Anne Wojcicki have gotten divorced after eight years of marriage. They married in 2007 and have two children together.

The divorce was quietly approved in May by a court in Santa Clara County.

Sources say that both Wojcicki and Brin have gone on to date other people since their separation, but they live close by each other in Los Altos and continue to raise their children as a team, the source said.

Brin is currently dating Nicole Shanahan, the founder of patent technology company ClearAccessIP and the pair attended a Jamaica wedding together in June.

Wojcicki and Brin had a prenuptial agreement in place, so their divorce shouldn’t impact Google very much. The pair reached a settlement for an undisclosed amount of money. Brin is worth an estimated $30 billion.

A spokesman for Brin declined to comment, as did a spokesman for Wojcicki.

Wojcicki, who is also a successful tech executive, has raised more than $110 million for her human genome startup, 23andMe.

Susan Wojcicki, Anne’s sister, was one of Google’s earliest employees and is currently the head of Google’s YouTube business platform.
