Back in May, we reported that Bill and Melinda Gates shocked the world when they announced that they are divorcing after 27 years of marriage.

Now, it’s been revealed that Bill will be able to fire Melinda from their eponymous charity, The Bill And Melinda Gates Foundation, after two years if they do not continue to get along after their divorce.

Daily Mail reported that Bill and Melinda will continue working together at their foundation once their divorce is finalized. However, if after two years they decide that they can no longer continue working together, it is Melinda who will have to resign. In that situation, Bill would essentially buy her out of the foundation which is one of the largest private charitable organizations in the world.

Bill and Melinda stunned everyone when they announced that they were divorcing, saying that their marriage was “irretrievably broken.”

“After a great deal of thought and a lot of work on our relationship, we have made the decision to end our marriage,” they said in a statement. “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.”

“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,” their statement concluded. “We ask for space and privacy for our family as we begin to navigate this new life.”

It has since been revealed that Bill had admitted to his golf buddies that his marriage to Melinda was “loveless” prior to their divorce filing.

“Bill did talk to his close friends on the golf course,” a source told The New York Post. “He told them a while back that the marriage was loveless, that it had been over for some time and they were living separate lives.”

It has also been revealed that Bill cheated on Melinda often throughout their marriage, shattering the family man image that he had for decades. In addition, he has been accused of inappropriate behavior towards women in the workplace.
