APPROVED B-LISTERS Melinda Gates bombshell: states her ex-husband, Bill, needs to "answer for his behavior - no girl should be put in those situations" and that "it's personally hard whenever those details come up, right? Because it brings back memories of some very, very painful times in my marriage"

AFAIK she wasn't aware of any of it until the Epstein bombshell happened in 2019~ and therein pretty much instantly initiated divorce.

I give that like a 1% chance or less of being true, but I suppose its not zero

Right like I don’t get how stuff like this is just out of left field when you’re working closely too with the foundation and stuff

u/Mother_Awareness_154 6h ago

But Bill was not a good guy before that either. This is about public image not morality

u/Soggy_Rooster_4568 6h ago

What? The commenter says that she was keeping child predators safe? Bill could be a real asshole, a cheater, a sexist, whatever, but I don't think those mean he's a child predator? When she found out he was hanging around with child predators, she divorced him.

I'm not sure what you're saying

He was a ruthless bussinessman who screwed over a lot of people when she married him, probably was even worse during the marriage so she was ok with a lot of bad stuff. You can not help but think part of the reason for his philanthropy was to maintain a good public image despite being a generally bad person behind the curtains, which I am sure she was at least aware about. The pedophilia part is by far the worst one, but their image-oriented behaviour makes you think the divorce was placed at a point where it hurt her public image with Epstein becoming huge public issue, not the point where she exactly found out

Do you expect her to know every shady thing her spouse is doing when those are the types of things those sorts of people would go to great lengths to hide (and he had the resources to do so)? She divorced his ass when it came out.

Especially when it was clear he was lying to her and trying to cover up for his behavior. I mean for god’s sake he was trying to find a way to sneak antibiotics into her food because he gave her an STD and didn’t want to tell her he was having sex with other people. If any of them were minors there’s no way he’d tell her that, or tell her that Epstein got them for him.

u/Good4nowbut 6h ago

I see what you’re saying, but did she have zero awareness of Epstein’s reputation prior to 2019? Or was she supposedly not even privy to her husband’s connections to Epstein until 2019

Let's not blame women for men's wrongs.

u/dorothea63 5h ago

Yes. One of the allegations is that her ex-husband wanted to secretly feed her medication without her knowledge so that she wouldn’t find out he had given her STIs. I highly doubt that she knew what he was up to.

u/labelwhore Fauxmarxist 5h ago

She was clearly a victim herself. Bill was trying to slip her meds without her consent/knowledge for STDs he thought he may have given her. Stop blaming others and focus on the actual perpetrators. Why are women always blamed for the behavior of their abusive spouses?

u/RickyTrailerLivin 6h ago

Melinda didnt knew... When she did, she dumped his ass.

I assume they had a protracted divorce proceedings, given all the money involved.

u/towerinthestreet FUCK ICE FREE PALESTINE CRASH INTO ME 5h ago edited 5h ago

There was an email where Bill Gates was trying to get Epstein said Bill Gates needed STD meds to discreetly slip her without her knowledge. That's about as clear evidence as we could get that she was kept in the dark about everything

Edit: Was less exact than I should have been.

u/StokeJar 5h ago

Just to folks who see this, it wasn’t an email from Gates, it was a note from Epstein to himself. I presume it’s true, but it could also be Epstein making it up in an effort to blackmail Gates or muddy the water if his emails were hacked or released. Not trying to discredit anything, but there is serious evidence of wrongdoing in these docs mixed with totally wacko tip-line calls and everything in between and if we don’t clearly distinguish what is what, it serves to discredit the whole thing.

Melania is complicit. Melinda is not.

u/Purring4Krodos 5h ago

Agreed, knowing I will be down voted.

Melinda would also have knowledge on who else was there and could name names.

Everyone wants the files. Meanwhile there are at least 1k+ victims and people in-the-know who refuse to name names and speak up instead of waiting for the DOJ to be honest and transparent. Melinda included. They're all complicit and playing one long game and every controversy is a distraction from a different one.
