The dark and secret relationship Bill Gates had that infuriated Melinda

Bill Gates announced on social media last Monday the end of his marriage to Melinda Gates, after being together for 27 years. The news came as a big surprise, because to public opinion they came out as a solid couple: charity events here and there, trips around the world together. However, the relationship of powerful philanthropists began to break years ago, in part because of some of the friendships the Microsoft founder had that made his then-wife uncomfortable.

Melinda first met Jefrrey Epstein in New York, her husband introduced them. From the first meeting, she felt rejected by the finance mogul and child sex abuser, who committed suicide in prison on August 10, 2019.. And she was furious with her husband, she disapproved of this friendship.

This meeting with Epstein took place in a Manhattan mansion in September 2013. On this occasion, Bill and Melinda received the Lasker-Bloomberg Public Service Award, which was presented in a stylish hotel in the Big Apple, a- he brings back. The daily beast.

It seems, Bill Gates’ friendship with Jeffrey Epstein meant a break in his relationship with Melinda. She told her friends and relatives how uncomfortable she felt with the New York mogul, she didn’t want to be tied to him.

By then, some of the stories of sexual abuse were already known. The powerful Wall Street man was convicted in 2008 for prostitution of minors. For this reason, Bill Gates’ relationship with Jeffrey Epstein still haunts and still haunts Melinda.

Although he denied it on several occasions, Microsoft founder reportedly had a close relationship with Epstein. According to New York Times, the tycoons have had numerous meetings since 2011. Boris Nikolic, adviser to Bill Gates, was involved in the execution of the New York financier’s will. And Melanie Walker, who worked at the Gates Foundation, advised Epstein on science.

In 2011, Gates attended a party at Epstein’s Manhattan mansion, The New York Times revealed. And in 2013, the Microsoft founder flew the New York mogul’s private plane from New Jersey to Palm Beach, Florida. That same year, the two reportedly met again in New York.

“I met him. I did not have any business relationship or friendship with himGates said in September 2019. “I haven’t been to New Mexico or Florida or Palm Beach or anything like that. There were people around him who were like, ‘Hey, if you want to fundraise for global health and get more philanthropy, he (Epstein) knows a lot of rich people. ”

“Every meeting I was with him there were other people. I’ve never been to any party or anything like that. He never gave money to anything that I know of, ”Gates added.

A source close to the Gates confirmed that Melinda was furious with the relationship. And is that in addition to the fact that some of his sexual predator stories were already public, Epstein was a person who behaved disagreeably, had bad manners in public and that’s why a lot of people didn’t want to be with him.or, as indicated The daily beast.

“When he got up from the table during dinner, he didn’t apologize, he told you he had a call with a president of a country,” said a source close to The daily beast.

Epstein also boasted of being an unofficial advisor to Bill Gates.This is confirmed by a New York Times investigation which reveals that the New Yorker advised the founder of Microsoft on tax matters.

There are even emails in which Bill Gates tells his staff about the founding of his friendship with Epstein: “Their lifestyle is very different and somewhat intriguing, although that wouldn’t work for me“. However, a spokesperson for the Microsoft founder attempted to clarify the contents of the post and said “it was only referring to the unusual decoration” of Epstein’s Manhattan mansion and “his habit of bringing spontaneously friends, and without notice, so they would meet Mr. Gates. “

The relationship between the two apparently broke down in 2014. That year, encouraged by Epstein, Gates donated $ 2 million to the Media Lab of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. But at the end of 2014, the New York financier complained that Gates was no longer calling him.

Ultimately, it’s unclear what happened between Gates and Epstein, why their friendship or business relationship ended. If Melinda – who just met him in 2013 – had anything to do with it, we don’t know either.. What has been confirmed by several sources The daily beast is that the now ex-wife of the founder of Microsoft has always despised the New York mogul and the sexual predator.
