Bill Gates, an American billionaire, has stated that divorcing his wife, Melinda, in 2021 is his greatest regret.
Gate pondered at his failure to emulate his parents’ 45 years marriage.
The 69-year-old former Microsoft executive said this during an interview with The Times of London.
Asked if divorce was his only failure in life, Bill said: “You would have to put that at the top of the list. There are others but none that matter. The divorce thing was miserable for me and Melinda for at least two years. It’s a mistake I most regret.
“Melinda and I still see each other — we have three kids and two grandchildren, so there are family events. The kids are doing well. They have good values.”

They married in Hawaii in 1994 and co-founded the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation in 2000, a non-profit organization.
The NGO was dedicated to combating worldwide poverty and disease.
Melinda resigned from the Foundation in May 2024.
