I was reading news on Yahoo when this headline startled me. I always lauded the couple for being married for a long time despite their vast wealth. It is so shocking indeed. It was not mentioned what was the reason for their upcoming divorce.

Bill Gates simply said that they will continue to work together for their Foundation, but they declared: "we no longer believe we can grow together as a couple". They are simply bored to be together in my opinion.

I'm wondering how a person could get bored with all that money

@louievill Surely not, as they will continue to work together for the foundation... boredom.

@louievill It is possible, now that he is no more the CEO of Microsoft and he has more time, may be he found some "interesting" hobbies.

Yeah, just read the news. Sad after 27 years they called it quits. It did mention the reason for divorce, it said "we believe we cant grow together in this marriage as a couple anymore". That's what they said.
