On November 23, the University of Michigan’s booster group, known as Champions Circle, published a post online announcing their success in securing a multi-million-dollar deal with the star quarterback Bryce Underwood for its school football team.
In the announcement it thanked “Larry and his wife Jolin” who provided “invaluable guidance and financial resources”, and stated that Jolin is a Michigan alumni.
Larry Ellison, chairman and co-founder of software giant Oracle Corporation, had not publicly announced Jolin’s identity as his wife, despite having been spotted watching sports games together with her many times since 2018, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Jolin Zhu, whose original Chinese name is Zhu Keren, remained mysterious before and after the revelation.
The 33-year-old Chinese native, who is 47 years younger than Ellison, was reported to have graduated with a bachelor’s degree in International Studies from the University of Michigan in 2012.
