I don't think it has to do with infidelity. There are speculations that the disagreement is over inheritance. Bill has said numerous times that he intend to donate most of his wealth to charity, meanwhile Melissa believes their children should inherit the family fortunes. So it is speculated that Melissa decided to divorce to secure a substantial portion of the family fortune for the children and grandchildren. Bill can then be free to donate all his own half of the fortune to charity.

Biglittlelois:



Messi married his long time girlfriend, he doesnt have myopic thinking like most of you,

Later this one will be claiming fan, and he knows nothing about him smh,

So many slow people that can't use ordinary Google.

3pleDAssistant:
"Civilised" people, abeg no vex oo

But what is the wisdom behind this rule? Why take from the man's propety to give to the woman after separation?

Any body with explanation please

Hyerin:



Why are you now loosing sleep over what rich people do? Go and make your own money and be single forever so that you won't have the issue of divorce, if it is to arise. At the end of the day, these men are still rich while you're on nairaland wailing on their behalf.

Hyerin:


Women do not have any unfair advantage over men. Most societies in the world operates on a patriarchal framework and women are the ones bearing the brunt of it all. It is just poverty mindset that is making you think they get what they want when women face alot of barriers by default, eg: wage/income gaps which automatically makes men higher income earners. Ever heard of glass ceiling? And that is sometimes why it appears that divorce favours women because guess what? They're usually the class that earns less due to social, cultural and economic factors.

This conversation is more nuanced than your simple-minded self thinks.

vanvickie:



Really, this is an excuse? So it's the man that disfigured her, yea? Please how did he do that, the children she birthed are they for the man alone? (children that will still reason their mum more than their dad at old age). Ok, so the man that was also disfigured from daily toiling to provide for the family who then pays him for that?
Please give us a better reason...

LesbianBoy:


I am neither single or broke. Get that into your head lil girl

And whether they are still rich doesn't change the fact that their ex wives are criminals

just2endowed:


How are you so sure that Messi wife will not take the inspiration of divorcing Messi after reading Melinda divorce story?

FuckThaMod:

Where is your own evidence those guys slept with baby mamas? How are you sure the kids weren't adopted? Oprah was with one man doesn't mean she wasn't whoring in the background. Use your IQ i beg you please

saphiere:
Yes so. We own the future. How are you?

You met her in-shape (probably curvy shape) you disfigured the shape through childbirth. Can you return her to her original self? No! So you have to pay for the damages.
The child bears the man's name

Kings999:
Untill men will start having sense, after you made it in life and get married you will still have to have a joint account with your wife or you will let her have access to your account.. for what?
Love and trust is not the same, Jesus said you should love your neighbor not to trust them..
Don't trust a woman even your wife, the woman that keep saying why don't you trust her is the one that will kill you before your time...
If you made money and get married, you don't own any woman any explanation on how to live your life, the only explanation you have is to take care of her and your kids and be a good husband to her, don't be so foolish and let a woman control you even in everything you have, sometimes let her know that she didn't contribute anything for your success...

Biglittlelois:
Look at all the hyperventilation from naija men dem, right in their little cubicle, they are typing and crying as if they know the in and out of Bill Gates family, lol

How they can actually say nonsense about Melinda is just beyond me, will a person like Bill go for an opportunist as a wife? They met at a conference in New York and she was working at Microsoft, can't you people read?

This is not even the divorce agreement proceeds, this is Bill giving the wife that they spent 27years of their life together what she rightly deserves without a dent to his billionaire position, with no complaints from him, so why the pains here?

He has given her the billions and moved on, and I'm pretty sure she'd still get more from the divorce proceeds, so keep crying and wailing on something that is not your concern, keep crying....

Romanoff:


Oprah Winfrey got rich from a divorce?

UDUJ:


The only person that has made some sense so far

Like the heading states it's just a stock transfer. The divorce has not being finalized yet. She stands to earn as much as $73 billion US Dollars should the divorce proceedings go smoothly as they never signed a pre-nup.

TruthHurts1:
An isolated example.

Hyerin:


Men who aren't broke don't spend a portion of their time pocket watching other men but okay. Perhaps, if you keep chanting it to yourself it might become true.

And didn't Jeff bezos cheat on his wife? You men will never call out misbehaviour from your fellow men but always the loudest when it's time to victim blame. Makes me think, y'all truly closet gays and should be with other men since you go so hard for them. Your moniker, "lesbianboy" supports this argument

smasher1:


She waited 27 good years. She realized that the guy is not ready to die and leave the wealth to her. She asked for divorce to spend the money.

Well what you do expect? bad news sell , u do not hear about successful marriage as President Jimmy Carter and his wife or George W Bush and his wife or Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip or RMD and his wife or Tinubu and his wife or John Travolta and his late wife or till death do them apart , the only one that you hear is Kanye divorce Kim, Bill divorce this or that.Then they say marriage na scam, marry the right person, and be the right person, and your marriage go work. Marriage is good when you marry right and do right in your marriage. Good news no dey sell

BKayy:
The only way women become billionaires is from divorce-VERIFIED FACT
In truth the future is females leeching on successful men to achieve their dreams.

That's why the adage says Behind every successful man is a feminist waiting to either accuse him of rape or file for divorce and take a cut from his wealth"
Ronaldo and Bill Gates are good examples

Biglittlelois:



And it is your problem how?

Biglittlelois:



Did this dude just asked if Davido and 2face kids are adopted? Lmao

In order to sound like you have a valid point and argument, you actually sound extremely slow in reasoning and thought process, so I'm done, can't deal with people like you,

Didn't check his moniker before sef, I blame myself

My last response to you.

Nickisindigo:


Lol 2billion they are complaining what if it's now 50%

Ilekokonit:
The worlds 4th richest man cannot make marriage work, Africa's Richest man already has 3 failed marriages. makes you wonder whether marriage is worth it for men.

Bornsinner7:
A man is not a financial plan

Women have an unfair advantage over men.. if they can't get what they want by being smart, they will get it by being dumb..

They get what they want from Union or from separation

They get it from victimising a person or from playing the victim
