Former Microsoft CEO Bill Gates has accidently let slip that Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg may be engaged to long time girlfriend Priscilla Chan. The information was revealed in an interview in The Daily Mail.

Bill Gates' exact words were, "His fiancée Priscilla thought about education and he gave money to Newark, New Jersey, and we did a co-grant so that some of our people who had some expertise in that field could help him out. He deserves credit. I started meaningful philanthropy in my forties. He's starting way earlier."

Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan have been together since 2003, a year before the launch of Facebook. They began dating at Harvard University. Gates' revelation could most likely be a slip of the tongue, as Zuckerberg's and Chan's relationship status on Facebook just says "in a relationship" and not "engaged" as on Sunday. Post the weekend, however, a lot of privacy settings on Zuckerberg's profile have changed.

On the other hand, businessinsider.com checked with Facebook's Head of Communications, Elliot Schrage, who said, "If [Mark is engaged, Bill Gates] knows something I don't know. Gates's communications guy just wrote to apologize for the misunderstanding." Just a cover up?

Earlier this year, Zuckerberg and Chan adopted a puppy named Beast. You can check out the pics of the puppy here.

Zuckerberg today is the 52nd richest man in the world with his worth calculated at $13.5 billion. According to Forbes magazine, he is the second youngest billionaire in the world.
