Updates on life - Jackie took a tumble, weekend trips to Miami and Orlando

In recent news you may have seen that Bill and Melinda Gates have filed for divorce. This couple has been together for 27 years and the news made headlines for obvious reasons.  The couple is said to be worth $130.5 billion dollars and have three grown children.  So why are they splitting after all of these years?

A number of reasons are said to be the cause of their demise.

Gates has admitted to being unfaithful. He reportedly had an affair with a co-worker in 2003 and he also had a strange arrangement of an annual getaway with his ex-girlfriend.  It’s said his wife agreed to this annual tryst but I can’t imagine this agreement didn’t cause some resentment over time.  Melinda is also said to have had concerns and issues with her husbands relationship with Epstein. 

The 3 I’s that lead to divorce:

1. Irreconcilable differences – how to manage finances, lack of sexual intimacy, extended family issues
2. Infidelity – broken trust that can never be rebuilt.
3. Incompatability – opposite views (politics, religion, how to raise kids, etc…)

Can you come back from any one of these?
