Bill Gates Regrets “Every Minute” He Spent With Jeffrey Epstein

Bill Gates would take it all back if he could. 

With the continued release of documents connected to Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex offender, those mentioned in the files are beginning to address their involvement—including Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft.

Honestly, looking back, every moment I shared with him fills me with regret. I truly am sorry for how things went, and I want to apologize for my actions. That’s what I told Charles Croucher when I spoke with 9 News Australia recently.

Regarding the claims in the documents released on January 30th – where Epstein alleged Gates had inappropriate relationships with women and contracted a sexually transmitted disease from one of them – Gates has denied the accusations.

According to Gates, Jeffrey seems to have written an email to himself, but it was never actually sent. Gates believes this email is inaccurate and he’s unsure why Jeffrey created it – perhaps as some kind of attempt to discredit him.

He stated that he hadn’t visited the island and hadn’t met any women. He believes further information will only reinforce this.

The tech executive acknowledged that associating with Epstein was an error in judgment, but insisted their interactions were completely unrelated to any inappropriate conduct.

The 70-year-old also explained his relationship with Epstein, stating they only ever met for dinner to talk about potential business deals.

Bill Gates’ former wife, Melinda French Gates, who was married to him from 1994 until their divorce in 2021, also suggested his name appeared in the released documents.

 

She explained on the NPR podcast Wild Card on February 3rd that discussing those details is difficult for her, as it reminds her of very painful experiences during her marriage.

She continued, saying that any remaining questions – and she admitted she couldn’t possibly know them all – are for the people involved, including even her ex-husband. She believes they are the ones who need to provide the answers, not her.

He always talked about knowing wealthy people and getting them to donate to global health initiatives,” she said. “Looking back, that was a waste of time. I shouldn’t have spent time with him, and I’m not the only one who regrets meeting him.

This isn’t the first time Bill Gates has said he regrets knowing Jeffrey Epstein. Back in 2021, he told Anderson Cooper on CNN that meeting with Epstein was “a huge mistake” and gave him undeserved credibility.

He also stated the relationship ended when Epstein’s pledges to donate to charitable causes proved to be insincere.

Bill Gates’s former wife, Melinda French Gates, who was married to him from 1994 until 2021, hinted that his name appeared in the released documents.

You know, it’s tough for me when those memories surface. I was chatting on the Wild Card podcast recently, and I shared that bringing up certain details really takes me back to some incredibly difficult moments from my marriage. It’s just a painful reminder, honestly.

She added that any remaining questions – and she admitted she couldn’t possibly know everything – are for the people involved, including even her ex-husband. She believes they are the ones who need to provide the answers, not her.
