Could Mark Zuckerberg's 7-foot statue for wife be a 'red flag'? Therapists concerned over the effects of such lavishness
Zuckerberg gets Priscilla 7-foot long statue
Zuckerberg has been known for his witty humor, but he was mighty serious when it came to gifting his wife a 7-foot long sculpture of her. The towering turquoise-and-silver statue of Priscilla was a striking one, and Zuckerberg took to social media to humorously claim that this was all about bringing back the Roman tradition of making sculptures for wives. The Instagram post shared by him shows Priscilla posing alongside the statue, while sipping coffee.
What was the occasion for this gift?
According to their relationship calendar, there is nothing very important and striking at this period of time in their married or relationship life, and therefore it is unclear as to why this gift was given to her in the first place.
Meanwhile, a clinical psychologist has claimed that such a lavish gift, without 'a sense of purpose', could indeed be a red flag and may mean trouble for the couple in the future. Isabelle Morley, a clinical psychologist in Massachusetts, whose expertise is couples therapy, mentions that context is everything when it comes to giving gifts to the uberwealthy, as prices do not really matter in such circumstances.
Extravagant gifts can be a means to manipulate the mind of the receiver and give them a false sense of security, or cover something up. This, in the longer run, leads to damage in a healthy relationship.
