“Melinda and I still see each other, we have three children and two grandchildren so there are family events. The kids are doing well. They have good values. “When Melinda and I met, I was fairly successful but not ridiculously successful that came during the time that we were together. So, she saw me through a lot. When we got divorced it was tough and then she made the decision to leave the foundation, I was disappointed that she took the option to go off” Bill Gates said
