A Dark Secret of Bill Gates’s Marriage Is Surprizing!
Bill Gates has recently announced his separation and gave a real shock to the world. The renowned Billionaire is separating from his wife Melinda French Gates earlier this month, and the common misconception was ‘the happy marriage’ they had been portraying for long 27 years.
What a Show!
A source informed People, for two decades, the couple having trouble in his marriage for the last two decades and Melinda Gates was well-aware of his husband’s issues.
The New York Times has reported that Bill Gates has been involved in numerous instances of sexual misconduct over the years. These include a sexual harassment claim against Gates’ “longtime money manager,” Michael Larson, as well as Gates himself pursuing women who worked for him.

“There was an affair almost 20 years ago which ended amicably,” Bridgitt Arnold, a spokeswoman for Gates, told the New York Times. “Gates’s decision to transition off the board was in no way related to this matter.”
However, Bill Gates’s allegations are getting worst.
The Microsoft founder had been friends with Jeffrey Epstein beginning in 2011. Epstein faced accusations of sex trafficking young girls and aiding rich and powerful men in abusing minors.
Bill Gates pleaded guilty to soliciting prostitution from a minor three years prior.
In Oct 2019, the friendship between Bill Gates and Epstein was made public and Melinda Gates first filed for divorce.
However, according to Bill Gates’ spokesperson, the divorce is not related to any claims of sexual misconduct. “It is extremely disappointing that there have been so many untruths published about the cause, the circumstances and the timeline of Bill Gates’s divorce,” Arnold told The New York Times.
“Your characterization of his meetings with Epstein and others about philanthropy is inaccurate, including who participated. Similarly, any claim that Gates spoke of his marriage or Melinda in a disparaging manner is false.
The claim of mistreatment of employees is also false. The rumors and speculation surrounding Gates’s divorce are becoming increasingly absurd, and it’s unfortunate that people who have little to no knowledge of the situation are being characterized as ‘sources.’”
People reports that Melinda Gates was not in the dark on her husband’s indiscretions. A source told the magazine, “Melinda was aware there were some issues, but it’s unclear if she knew about all of it.”
The magazine also reported that the divorce did not come as a surprise to those who know the Gates family personally.
According to a source, “[Bill Gates] could have treated Melinda better. He’s not a saint, but there isn’t one thing that created the final split. It goes deeper than that.
“It’s many years of differing views of the world, the foundation, and of life in general, and those things piling up. They are older and each personally looked at life and asked, ‘Is there more out there than what I have?’”
