According to reports, Melinda filed for divorce, citing their marriage as “irretrievably broken” in the court documents, per NY Post. Bill is worth around a whopping $130 billion—making him the fourth richest person in the world—and their nonprofit Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation holds an estimated $51 billion in assets.
Shortly after Bill and Melinda shared the devastating news, people on social media shared their thoughts.
Do you crave the money and smoldering sex appeal of a #Bezos or a #Musk, but with possibly less of the evil cackling? Well, buckle up, ladies, because #BillGates is single!
