Bill Gates, the fourth richest man in the world with a fortune of $124billion, and his wife Melinda are divorcing after 27 years of marriage.
The 65-year-old Microsoft founder and his 56-year-old wife announced the split on Twitter.
They both posted the same joint statement which read: 'After a great deal of thought and a lot of work, we have made the decision to end our marriage.
'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. We continue to share a belief in tat mission and will continue to 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.'
The couple have three kids; Jennifer, 25, Rory, 21, and Phoebe, 18.
It comes less than two weeks after they made their last public appearance, virtually, at a COVID event for healthcare workers.
Gates was already a billionaire when the pair got married in the early 1990s. He founded Microsoft in 1975 and became the world's youngest billionaire in 1987 at the age of 31. He also met Melinda that year.
They married six years later but he deliberated over it and, according to previous interviews given by Melinda, even made a list of pros and cons for marriage on a whiteboard.

She worship da debbil.
She is from Texas and from what I gathered from one of her interviews, she is the conservative one (relatively speaking). Bill is uber lib of course.
She probably can’t take his manic episodes and schizophrenia anymore.
I have a biological older brother, who is very rich and neck deep in the "Big Tech" world, and he and his low class 'professor" wife, are exactly the same way.
She road his coattails for 30 years but now she wants to quit?? This doesn’t make any sense.
If Jeff Spicoli wore a dress to high school...
Maybe her can’t stand obnoxious people genes finally kicked in.
Nah, she doesn’t want to be associated with him when he is charged with crimes against humanity.
She gonna score about 60 billion dollars. Unless they have kids. Then he is really screwed...
After 27 years, pre-nups may not be so enforceable. Regardless, Melinda will get far more money than she could possibly spend.
Big question is who gets the house.
Will she spend several million to gain a couple more billion? Or just settle comfortably with 30-40 billion (on the low end)? Poor thing. How stressful!
She is getting out before the SHTF!
You can kill some of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time, but you can’t kill all of the people all of the time. That would co$t too much.
With those kids, Bezos has to be paying several million$ a month on child support, if not more!! Then there’s the clothing allowances, spousal support, etc. How sad they must be! She was praying for infidelity to really clean up! In fact, it’d be worth her while to hire women to throw at him until he cracked!
Resistance is futile. You will be vaccinated.
She can no longer grow with someone who is actively trying to reduce the human population.

https://www.nytimes.com › Oct 13, 2019 — “Bill Gates regrets ever meeting with Epstein and recognizes it was an error in judgment to do so,”
At least they don’t need a gofundme.
