Bill and Melinda Gates to divorce after 27 years of marriage
WASHINGTON (BLOOMBERG, REUTERS) - Bill and Melinda Gates, two of the most influential philanthropists in the world, said on Monday (May 3) that they are divorcing after 27 years of marriage.
"After a great deal of thought and a lot of work on our relationship, we have made the decision to end our marriage," the two said in a statement posted on Twitter.
"We have raised three incredible children and built a foundation that works all over the world to enable all people to lead healthy, productive lives."
"We no longer believe we can grow together as a couple in the next phase of our lives. We ask for space and privacy for our family as we begin to navigate this new life," their statement said.
