Melinda French Gates has revealed that her ex-husband, Bill Gates, did not consult her before deciding to give away nearly all their foundation’s $200 billion fortune by 2045.
Bill Gates, 69, announced he will donate 99% of his wealth over the next two decades, effectively shutting down the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation by December 31, 2045.
He plans to keep just 1% of his fortune, estimated at $1.62 billion.
“This decision was made after I left” Melinda told Fortune, referring to her 2024 exit from the foundation.
“It was made between Bill, (CEO) Mark Suzman, and the board. I think It’s fantastic decision”.
