Bill and Melinda Gates to divorce after 27 years of marriage, the couple announced in a joint statement Monday.
"After a great deal of thought and a lot of work on our relationship, we have made the decision to end our marriage. Over the last 27 years, 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," the statement said.
"We continue to share a belief in that mission and will continue our work together at the foundation, but we no longer believe we can grow together as a couple in this next phase of our lives. We ask for space and privacy for our family as we begin to navigate this new life."

One never knows what goes on behind closed doors.

you can have all that money and it still isn't enough,
they could live separately etc.
I know it's none of my biz but I am very curious about the reason

May they both find happiness in the future.

It's sad, after 27 years. They seemed to have a true partnership. But to me it's a positive to not stay in an unhappy marriage after you have worked on it and tried. I'm sure it's tough for them and their kids.

Dang, who would have thought? Just goes to show no amount of money can ensure you unconditional love.
