Gates spotted alone

A fan spotted Bill Gates walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of May 15, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Bill back on the market?

A rep for Bill Gates was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the business man was splitting hit the internet Saturday (May 16), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Bill’s phone number?”

“So very sad… Those 2 were so great as a couple. So cute together.”

Based on the facts (Gates spotted alone with a cute sweater), is there trouble in paradise or is it much ado about nothing?
