In a shocking revelation, Microsoft co-founder and billionaire Bill Gates has admitted to having extramarital affairs with two Russian women during his 27-year marriage. This admission comes after the details of his relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein surfaced. According to a report by The Wall Street Journal, Gates addressed the employees of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in a town hall meeting on February 24.
The report states that an email from July 2013, allegedly written by Epstein, claimed that Gates had hidden a disease he contracted after having affairs with Russian women from his then-wife Melinda. However, Gates’ spokesperson denied the allegations entirely. Gates has also acknowledged that he has traveled on a private jet with Epstein and met with him in several countries, including the United States, but denied being involved in any illegal activities or associating with any victimized women.
