Bill Gates admits meeting disgraced Jeffery Epstein and having dinner with him. Bill Gates said he regrets it, but insists it was just that one time. Bill seems like he tried to downplay it as nothing, despite all the horrendous things Epstein was charged with. Melinda Gates previously suggested that the relationship between Bill and Jeffrey could have contributed to her divorce from Bill, despite what Bill says in this news interview.<\/p>\n
As previously reported, there were a number of factors that led to Melinda French Gates\u2019s decision to divorce her husband of 27 years, Bill Gates, as she said, which includes his work with the late disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. In a new interview with Gayle King that aired recently on \u2018CBS This Morning,\u2019 the philanthropist addressed their divorce publicly for the first time, and she explained that it was \u201cnot one thing but many things\u201d that led to the demise of their marriage. \u201cI did not like that he had meetings with Jeffrey Epstein, no. I made that clear to him,\u201d Melinda explained.<\/p>\n
She met with the convicted trafficker \u201cexactly one time,\u201d she added, because she \u201cwanted to see who this man was.\u201d \u201cI regretted it the second I walked in the door. He was abhorrent. He was evil personified. My heart breaks for these women,\u201d said Melinda.<\/p>\n
On the other side, Bill said in a statement to CBS that \u201cMeeting with Epstein was a mistake that I regret deeply. It was a substantial error in judgment.\u201d Melinda\u2019s ex-husband had an affair with a staffer 20 years ago, which a spokesperson for the Microsoft co-founder confirmed in May 2021, and she also spoke openly on that topic, reported Vanity Fair<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cI certainly believe in forgiveness, so I thought we had worked through some of that,\u201d confessed Melinda. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t one moment or one specific thing that happened. There just came a point in time where there was enough there where I realized it just wasn\u2019t healthy, and I couldn\u2019t trust what we had,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bill Gates admits meeting disgraced Jeffery Epstein and having dinner with him.
