Bill Gates finds love again – Bill Gates, the legendary businessman and co-founder of Microsoft, is reportedly starting a new chapter in his life by finding love once again after being divorced for more than a year. According to Daily Mail, the 67-year-old has now started a romantic relationship with Paula Hurd, the widow of Mark Hurd, the former co-CEO of Oracle, who passed away in 2019.
The businessman and his new love interest have been described as longtime tennis enthusiasts, and are said to have been spotted attending the same tennis tournaments over the years. The couple was reportedly seen last month at the Australian Open in Melbourne and Sydney, where they were described as “inseparable”. The same source reported that the couple has been together for over a year and that it is well-known within their inner circle that they are in a romantic relationship, despite Paula being referred to as a “mystery woman”.

Paula, a former tech executive who is now an event planner and organizer, as well as a philanthropist, shared two daughters with her late husband, who passed away from cancer. On the other hand, Gates and his ex-wife, Melinda, were married for 27 years, tying the knot in 1994 after dating for 7 years. They share three children together – two daughters, Jennifer and Phoebe, and a son, Rory.
The billionaire has stated that he still maintains a close relationship with his ex-wife, despite the end of their marriage. He has admitted to grieving the loss of their relationship but also expressed happiness at the fact that they are still able to work together. Meanwhile, there were reports in November that Melinda has started a new relationship with Jon Du Pre, the former Fox News reporter.
