      Letting us assume as she said that she "did nothing wrong" and everything bad was Bill's fault. She's good at such "lines". How on one meeting could Epstein come across "evil personified", I suspect that's a line calculated to make the listener sympathetic, but it doesn't ring true.

      @Carol Watkins Because this has been going on for decades. Bill and Melinda are just the latest ones. George soros was part of the conspiracy train back during the bush administration. New world order is linked to every president since Reagan. People believing in old conspiracies in new contexts. I suspect it all goes back well before the country was founded. Some people just need to think in terms of mystery rather than reality.

      @@donnawoodford6641 1. No billionaire is going to be faithful to one woman even Kings had concubines. If I become rich like him, I will cheat on you too, it is what it is. Men are faithful as our options and financial means. What's important is we don't show it in public.
      2. The man doesn't speak about her. He hasn't said his side of the story about the things she did that he didn't like. No one is perfect in a relationship. She wasn't perfect for 27 years of their marriage. That is a fact.
      3. It's a lie she had nightmares about his meetings with that sex offender. He was his financier. They had proffesional meetings.
      3. She embarrassed her family especially the children they had by speaking about their father in public and filing for divorce. She broke the family, not him. She is selfish because she thought of her feelings and not the impact to their children even if they are rich.
      4. She is OLD. Only a BROKE man will date her. She will pay for the dates and even he will cheat on her. There is nothing out here for her. Saying that she hopes to fall in love again is laughable and wont make Bill jealous 😂😂. High value and even up and coming men PREFER younger women. She can't compete with YOUTH. Bill will still get younger women because younger women date older men
      5. She ruined the family name and legacy by filing for divorce and speak about him

      This to me is more of a plug for her new business venture and not the details of her divorce. I'm not mad at her for doing that in this video. Wordily people are too nosey for their own good and are just busy bodies wanting something to gossip about. I'm glad she has integrity and does not divulge all the details of how long their marriage had been over before they publically called it quits. I am truly sorry that 27 years have been thrown away as if it was nothing. Being together that long I know they still have lonely sleepless nights crying from missing each other. It's hard to sleep alone when you are use to them being next to you unless years ago they started sleeping in separate bedrooms.

    Melinda was dead on when saying that we need to see and listen to people more and really hear what they have to say and their ideas. I like that she recognized that there are people that might have a solution to a problem, but that they just may not have the funding to make the solution happen. I think that's going to make a massive difference in her goals rather than just coming in and imposing one's own ideas of what might work best for someone else's situation. She has the right idea.

      1. No billionaire is going to be faithful to one woman even Kings had concubines. If I become rich like him, I will cheat too, it is what it is. Men are faithful as our options and financial means. What's important is we don't show it in public.
      2. The man doesn't speak about her. He hasn't said his side of the story about the things she did that he didn't like. No one is perfect in a relationship. She wasn't perfect for 27 years of their marriage. That is a fact.
      3. It's a lie she had nightmares about his meetings with that sex offender. He was his financier. They had proffesional meetings.
      3. She embarrassed her family especially the children they had by speaking about their father in public and filing for divorce. She broke the family, not him. She is selfish because she thought of her feelings and not the impact to their children even if they are rich.
      4. She is OLD. Only a BROKE man will date her. She will pay for the dates and even he will cheat on her. There is nothing out here for her. Saying that she hopes to fall in love again is laughable and wont make Bill jealous 😂😂. High value and even up and coming men PREFER younger women. She can't compete with YOUTH.

    This woman is so authentic and sets boundaries kindly but very, very clearly when asked questions by Gayle King that are no one’s business but the Gates family, or even perhaps Bill & Melinda’s alone. I Love that she defers questions regarding Bill’s behavior to him. Shows respect for herself and her children without name-calling or being insulting. I so appreciate her impressions of Jeffrey Epstein. Her statement about “regretting walking into the room from the first moment” and that he personified evil lends real credence to the statements made by all of his victims. I do not consider Melinda French Gates a “hysterical” or hyperbolic woman. You can feel her pain she talks about how she gave everything she had to her marriage. I love that she says “it’s not my fault!” without apology. I wish the best for her and hope wonderful things come her way. And glad that she is so optimistic about her future. And what a great example she sets being so public about continuing her work at the Foundation and with Bill.

    I appreciate Melinda's candor and the lesson in it for me. I think most women in this situation, when they first find out the details that point to "the end" of their relationship, they tend to view their relationship as "dying", when, in reality, it has already died or these things wouldn't be there to be discovered. Breach of contract and personal betrayal by the person you thought so highly of, are so painful. To me, this is why it is important every day, to make sure what two people have between them is maintained "alive", because once it's dead, it cannot be revived in my experience. Thank you for your honesty, Melinda. You're an extraordinary person. What you just taught me is immense. Thank you!

    I have always been impressed with Melinda Gates, her philanthropic spirit, and the fact that she loves to empower other women.. I'm even more impressed with her now, you go girl! None of us need a man to define us and Melinda French Gates is certainly out there living her best life while making the world a better place! Whether you're a billionaire or any of the rest of us, you don't have to take back or stay with a man who hurts you time and time again, we are better than that.. Let's lift each other up as women and not tear each other down!

    I'm going through a broken relationship because of cheating and I absolutely relate to her outlook and sentiments ( although she has a lot of money) which is my main concern at this point, how will I be able to support a home. But goes to show that these kinds of situations and circumstances can happen to anyone. She is truly an amazing woman.

    In a world where the phrase 'it takes two to tango' is often thrown around about divorce, it's nice to hear someone state proudly that they did their best and they didn't cause the problems, and let the one who did speak on their own behalf! A good woman should not carry the shame of a dirty man.

    I feel for her pain, because I went through a divorce with my high school sweetheart, of 22 years. I can definitely say it was one of the worst times of my life. However, I am glad I was able to be a good example for my daughters and show them that they don’t have to deal with the same things in life. I guess that’s all you can do is hope to do your best for your kids.

    One thing not mentioned is she filed for divorce after her youngest child turned 18. Even in the midst of her own personal pain and unhappiness she held off long enough for her kids to reach adulthood with an intact family. They could have coparented extremely easily with no financial restrictions and afforded her kids the best therapy money can buy, but she spared them the destruction of childhood divorce. That is very admirable of her.

      I disagree. You do not protect your kids when staying in an unhappy marriage. You are their model for what a relationship should be and should look like. So a cold home, with bickering, bitterness and lack of love is not a very good model

      @SL-lz9jr 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      I understand it’s intended to be a compliment towards Melinda and I think I know what you’re trying to say, or where the sentiment comes from, but it is a little misguided. It sends the wrong message that any spouse or partner needs to stay in a bad, unhealthy, or toxic (and at worst, abusive) relationship in order not to “traumatize” or “break up the family”. It puts the onus and the blame on the spouse or partner who wants to leave, as if they are a home wrecker for divorcing. Children are sensitive and can pick up on any tension in the household. Sometimes that creates anxiety or uncertainty and can lead to mental health or psychological problems in the child. Of course, depending on the situation, it’s quite possible for two loving and responsible and respectful parents to legally separate or divorce while still living under the same roof or adjoining roofs so they can still coparent together physically. I know of spouses who move into the basement, an in-law unit above the garage, the pool/guest house, or whatever so both parents can still be there for their children in the morning before school and be there for them after school. For those who can manage that maturely, it’s totally great for the children. It minimizes the negative impact of a divorce or separation. They don’t have to yo-yo between one parent’s house and the other house. In essence it keeps the family unit relatively intact, but it also allows the parents to lead separate lives and not be entangled to one another if they are no longer fit to be together. But these kinds of families are usually not dealing with the extreme end of a toxic pendulum. They’re probably on the lower end where toxicity is concerned. Or they have to be really mature adults who will not fight in front of the kids and won’t bad mouth the other parent to their kids, even if in truth they hate each other’s guts. That’s hard to do for most of us.
