Bill and Melinda Gates had a previously undisclosed meeting with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein in New York City — and the visit was so uncomfortable, she warned her husband not to have anything to do with the financier again, according to a report.
The Microsoft co-founder and his wife — who announced their divorce this week — visited Epstein’s Upper East Side townhouse in September 2013, according to the Daily Beast, citing sources who said Melinda was “furious” after the meeting.
The meeting came on the same day the philanthropic couple accepted the Lasker-Bloomberg Public Service Award at the Pierre Hotel and were photographed with then-Mayor Mike Bloomberg, according to the outlet.
Friends of the couple told the Daily Beast that Melinda is still haunted by the encounter with Epstein, who had been accused for years of molesting underage girls and killed himself in 2019 while locked up in Manhattan on sex-trafficking charges.
