A report says that Bill and Melinda Gates‘ divorce was not really a shock. They had reportedly decided to get divorced months ago but only made the announcement this month. Sources also say that the divorce is not amicable nor friendly.

TMZ claims, “We’re told virtually everyone in the family took Melinda’s side.” They added, “So here’s the takeaway. First, we’re told this was not a friendly split. We’re told Melinda and most of the family were furious at Bill for various things they claim he had done. Second … it’s clear this divorce has been a long time in the making.”
