Yahoo CEO Marissa Maye Gives Birth To Twin Girls After Unveiling Plan To Create New Holding Company

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 10 Dec, 2015 11:45 AM
    SAN FRANCISCO — Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer has followed a major business announcement with some big personal news.
     
    She gave birth to twin girls Thursday, the day after unveiling plans to hatch a new company to control Yahoo's Internet business.
     
    This is the second time that the 40-year-old Mayer has given birth since Yahoo hired her as CEO in July 2012. She and her husband have a 3-year-old son, Macallister.
     
    A Yahoo spokeswoman declined to reveal the twin' names or weights.
     
    Mayer on Wednesday announced that Yahoo will spin off its Internet operations into a separate company.
     
    As she did with her son, Mayer plans to only take a "limited" time away from her job. She has been working on a cost-cutting overhaul of Yahoo that she plans to discuss next month.
