Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates — who is worth an estimated $130 billion — and his wife, Melinda, are getting a divorce after 27 years of marriage, the couple announced Monday in a joint statement.

“After a great deal of thought and a lot of work on our relationship, we have made the decision to end our marriage,” a statement from the billionaire philanthropist couple, tweeted from both of their personal Twitter accounts at 4:30 p.m. EST, reads.

“Over the last 27 years, we have raised three incredible children and built a foundation that works all over the world to enable all people to lead healthy, productive lives,” the statement goes on.

“We continue to share a belief in that mission and will continue our work together at the foundation, but we no longer believe we can grow together as a couple in this next phase of our lives. We ask for space and privacy for our family as we begin to navigate this new life.”

  1. They are diverting attention from the bigger picture
    In WTO discussion going to be held on the waiver of vaccine patent protection
    He came out said that he is against poor countries getting vaccines at a lower price
    What we are seeing in India unfolding because
    Of bill gates
    Bill gates invested heavily in SII company in India which makes most vaccine in the world
    But on the command of bill gates CEO of SII
    Shut down the manufacturing plants since mid-January
    And in this month he fled the country

  2. They should have divorced a long time ago before they both plotted to exterminate the world. This isnt a joke btw. Theres lots of interviews with them leading to it being their plan.

  3. can you melinda say if bill is becoming a monster? coughs no vaccine patent sharing coughs

  4. Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today

  5. Maybe she knows an Epstein scandal or some proof going to leak soon as he was seen with him lol

  6. She would be nothing without him. Did she create Microsoft? No!! Tired of her blabbering about equality when she didn’t create the business fortune.

  7. ….. the justice of cosmical higher power always starts by taking place on very personal level.
    …. for Bill Gates this is just the beginning of punishments by the creator of cosmos which will continue ….
    …. the next generation of global folks should never ever stop finding the perpetrators of "the 2019-2023 whole package covid crimes against humanity" and the facts how the aerial spraying of covid variant forms began to tale place in reality.
    …… the bottom line is: Bill Gates is such an insanely scheming evil creature in human form, he deserves to stand before international criminal court investigation and /or firing squad for his heinous strategy of virus businesses and crimes against humanity.
    It's a matter of time when the global folks can see justice would be being served to the perpetrators for crimes against humanity committed by Bill Gates and some others in U.K. and Israel regardless of their Jew or mixed other origins with a track record of insanely brutal and greed-blind deeds only for making money and power ……. No amount of feeling sorry can't save Bill Gates from being brought to justice for his committed Covid related crimes against humanity.

  8. She found out about my affair with him. But that was years ago, I didn't know that he was married and I broke it off when i found out….so please don't believe all of the lies that will be spread….PLEASE!!!!

  9. I question myself every day if I already found my soulmate ever since I met an exchange student a few days after my Fall ‘19 semester at USC ended. I took her on a date and at the end of the night, I made on a move on her by playing “what are the odds?” I asked her “what are the odds we end the night in a kiss? 1-10?” We played and both said 6…

    I just knew she was gonna say 6. She asked me how I knew but I bs-ed the explanation. For some reason I didn’t want to tell her the real reason why.

    Ever since then, the number 6 has been a very significant number in my life. A friend of mine taught me how to play a Kuwaiti card game called Kout Bo 6 and now I’ll be implementing it into my first clothing collection.

    Also, we often here and see “6 feet apart” nowadays thanks to Covid. There’s more. This year, the USC basketball team, who were ranked #6, scored 66 points on their last game in March Madness.

    If you’re wondering how I knew she was gonna say 6, it’s because we talked about our birthdays earlier that day. I remember telling her mine birthday is on June 5th and her’s is on May 21st. I then mentioned how I enjoyed having my birthday in the middle of the year because I can anticipate my Christmas presents half a year later.

    The craziest part is that my student apartment number seems to be the root of this significant number 6. My apartment number is 6125 and I live on the 6th floor. Also notice the numbers in my apt #. The “6” and “5” make up my birthday June 5th. On the other hand, the “5”, “2”, and “1” make up her birthday May 21st.

    If you want to read more about this, I wrote a letter to my dad that involves this entire story. The letter can be found on my Reddit @Mataeus_6everly. Also, if you enjoy photography, feel free to follow my photography account @filmbymataeus. Thank you! ✨

  10. Melinda gates is worth 46 billion dollars… that’s billion with a “B”. On top of that she still wants half of what Bill gates have? If she truly loved him, she would’ve been okay with what she have but she’s probably the #1 gold digger on the planet in mg opinion. 46 billion isn’t enough for you sis?? Bill gates worked his entire life for Microsoft so he definitely deserves to not lose his money. And lets not forget that without him she would’ve been making 70k maximum with her bachelors degree in marketing…

  11. I just hope it was a mutual decision and they are happier with this decision. That is a lot of assets to divide up. Those attorneys will be working around the clock.

  12. Bill Gates is engaging in genocide. He and his cronies have violated the Nuremberg Code of 1947. If not stopped his action will most likely lead to the elimination of all human life on earth.

  13. Of course you can can't grow together he's growing with someone else that was a dumb comment for someone so rich and smart let him go he'll let you go long time ago
