According to National Museums Liverpool, a blog explains that statues and busts from the period were regularly made to honor late loved ones or "to refer to significant relatives and to make meaningful associations."

Chan and Zuckerberg started dating in 2003 during their Harvard days and tied the knot in May 2012. The couple share three children - Maxima, August, and Aurelia.
