Rumor has it that she gets to keep the house. Bill gets to keep the windows.

Anyone got her number?

Well that's sad.. thats a long time to be married and divorce at that age seems odd.

Anyone got her number?

It probably involves a lot of 0's to the left of the decimal point.

I'll exercise my right to NOT exercise my right of free speech here ...other than, who cares.... F#@% them!

 

[James Burke]

I honestly wonder if it was for tax purposes. A lot of people are still together, but are divorced on paper.

And, no pre-nup. She is going to clean Billy's hard drive out.

At their age I doubt it's going to be a nasty divorce. He has already signed the pledge to give away a lot of his fortune to charity and she runs his charities. Might be for tax reasons but I would imagine it's going to be an amicable divorce and they already know how it's getting divided.

Anybody got HIS number ...? Wouldn't mind a piece of that. The bank account that is.

Can't help but wonder if it has anything to do with his trips on Mr. Epsteins "Lolita Express"...

 

[Stacey K]

His youngest is 18 so he/she is/did graduate from high school. I know a lot of people that stayed together and divorced once the kids were graduated from high school. They may have been thinking about this for years. And the Epstein thing...I never knew that, could very well be!

More like his cache.

They live in WA state. Community property - so it will either get divided down the middle, or they will split up the fortune amicably. Like Bezos - also in WA state.

 

[James Burke]

I'm perfectly happy with my high-school sweetheart bride of 35 years....knowing that she didn't marry me for the money. I love my kids and grand kids, and all the fun we have without the pressure of high-brow life.

Our motives are never questioned by our social circles, and I still manage to sleep well every night...even when the wolf howls at the door.
