CNBC TV – Whitney Wolfe Herd returns as Bumble’s CEO in March 2025 after stepping down in 2021, replacing Lidiane Jones, who resigned after just over a year. Wolfe Herd, who co-founded Tinder before launching Bumble in 2014, made history by taking the company public in 2021. Under her leadership, Bumble became a major online dating player, emphasizing women making the first move. Her return comes as Bumble faces declining stock value (down nearly 54% in the past year) and increasing competition. With 4.1M paying users in 2024 (up 11.5%), the company is looking to regain momentum and improve user trust.
