His infidelity was rumored to be the reason for the split: Melinda has now revealed why she divorced Bill Gates
When the founder of the company Microsoft, Bill Gates, announced that he is divorcing his wife Melinda after 27 years of marriage, everyone was surprised.
Everyone was interested in what was the reason that led to the most expensive divorce in history, and the former couple did not reveal the details.
"After much thought and a lot of work on our relationship, we have made the decision to end our marriage. In these 27 years, we raised three wonderful children and founded a foundation that helps people around the world live better. We still believe in that mission and will continue to work together, but we do not believe that we can develop as a couple in the next stages of our lives. We ask for some space, privacy and understanding for our family as we try to navigate this new life," Bill Gates' official statement read, and it was speculated that the reason for the end of the marriage was his infidelity.
Melinda Gates in a new interview for the magazine "Fortune" spoke about her decision to leave the marriage union.

It's incredibly painful, in countless ways, but I was able to go through it away from the public eye," said Melinda, whose work helped her get through a difficult period in her life.
"I continued to work with people I had "broken up with" and I had to show up and be my best every day. So, even though I might have been crying at nine in the morning, I had to be on a video conference at ten o'clock with the person I'm divorcing, I had to show up and be the best," she said and emphasized that the main task was to protect their three children. – Jennifer, Rory and Phoebe. She also mentioned Bill's infidelity, that is, that it did not affect the decision to divorce.
"No specific thing happened. It just came to a point where I realized it wasn't healthy and I couldn't believe what we had," she said.
