KONTAN.CO.ID – JAKARTA. Billionaire Bill Gates has spoken out with friends about his relationship with his ex-wife Melinda towards the end of their divorce.
According to a source with knowledge of the story, Gates reportedly admitted that his relationship with Melinda was running without love again prior to the announcement of their divorce.
“Bill did talk to his close friends at the golf course,” said a source in a report from New York Post as reported Fox Business.
“He told them some time ago that the marriage was loveless, that it had ended for some time and they were living separate lives,” said the source. However, other sources say, this is not true.

Golf has long been an essential part of Gates’ life. In fact, he and Melinda got married on the golf course of the Manele Bay Hotel in Hawaii in 1994.
Gates, 65, has even reportedly found the link since the big announcement.
News of their divorce shocked many and was reportedly difficult for Melinda, 56, because of her Roman Catholic faith. “She wants to get an annulment from the Vatican after the civil divorce,” a source working with Melinda told the Post.
Another insider said the split was not surprising given Bill’s relationship with the late financier and convict sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
