The big question on everyone’s mind when Bill and Melinda Gates announced they are divorcing is whether they have a prenuptial agreement.

How it will be divvied up seems to have been decided privately, meaning the April 2022 trial date that was set as a routine matter will likely never come to pass. “Spousal support is not needed,” Melinda’s petition declares. It also suggests chances of a reconciliation are nil: “This marriage is irretrievably broken.”
