Bill Gates Breaks Silence: Public Appearance Amidst Epstein File Allegations

Billionaire tech entrepreneur Bill Gates was seen attending the Australian Open on Saturday alongside his girlfriend, Paula Hurd. This appearance came shortly after new allegations emerged from Jeffrey Epstein’s files, claiming that Gates had relations with Russian women and contracted a sexually transmitted infection.

Gates and Hurd have been enjoying the tennis festivities at Melbourne Park throughout the week. They were photographed earlier on Thursday, taking in the matches from VIP seats at the renowned Rod Laver Arena.

The pair returned on Saturday to witness the women’s singles final, where Aryna Sabalenka of Belarus competed against Kazakhstan’s Elena Rybakina.

Just a day before the finals, a representative for Gates addressed the allegations, telling the Daily Mail that the claims were “utterly ridiculous and entirely untrue.”

The spokesperson further remarked, “These documents only highlight Epstein’s frustration over not having a sustained connection with Gates, showcasing the extremes he would resort to in order to trap and slander.”

The Department of Justice has been under immense public pressure to release millions of previously sealed files related to the disgraced financier. 

Gates’ name has previously been tied to Jeffrey Epstein, although he has long denied any wrongdoing and admitted that he regretted having a relationship with the late pedophile, who died in a New York City jail in 2019. 

The DOJ has released the redacted files in batches, with the latest released on Friday.

Gates has repeatedly denied any allegations against him related to Epstein and admitted that he regretted their relationship. He’s pictured above at the Australian Open on Saturday 

The fresh files included an email Epstein sent to himself on July 18, 2013, that appeared to be a draft intended for Gates’s then-top advisor, Boris Nikolic.

‘TO add insult to the injury you them (sic) implore me to please delete the emails regarding your std, your request that I provide you antibiotics that you can surreptitiously give to Melinda and the description of your penis,’ the email read. 

The email appeared to reference Gates ending his friendship with Epstein, with the disgraced pedophile confessing that he was ‘dismayed beyond comprehension’ at Gates’s decision to ‘disregard our friendship developed over the last 6 years.’

Another email from the same day seemed to be a draft resignation letter for Nikolic, written by Epstein. 

‘I have been caught up in a severe marital dispute between Melinda and Bill…’ the email, written by Epstein, wrote. 

‘In my role as his right hand man I have been asked and wrongly acquiesced into participating in things that have ranged from the morally inappropriate, to the ethically unsound and have been repeatedly asked to do thing (sic) that get near and potentially over the line into the illegal…

‘From helping Bill to get drugs, in order to deal with consequences of sex with russian girls, to facilitating his illicit trusts, with married women, to being asked to provide adderall fro (sic) bridge touramnts (sic), as I am a medial doctor, but have no presriptions (sic) writing ability.’

The newly-released files also included an undated photo of Gates (far left), pictured with Epstein (middle)

The emails referenced Gates ex-wife, Melinda, whom he was married to from 1994 to 2021. The Wall Street Journal reported during their divorce that Melinda had been meeting with lawyers since 2019. 

Sources told the Journal at the time that Melinda was concerned about Gates’ alleged business dealings with Epstein.  

The nearly three million Epstein files released on Friday mention the names of several public figures, including Elon Musk and Melania Trump, in addition to Gates. 

One email from Musk to Epstein, dated November 25, 2012, read: ‘What day/night will be the wildest party on =our (sic) island?’

Epstein wrote back asking: ‘How many people will you be for the heli to island?’

‘Probably just Talulah and me,’ Musk replied, referring to his ex-wife, British actress Talulah Riley. 

Musk emailed Epstein again in December 2013 to coordinate a trip to the sordid pedophile’s Caribbean island. ‘Will be in the BVI/St Bart’s area over the holidays,’ Musk wrote to Epstein. ‘Is there a good time to visit?’ 

Epstein responded, suggesting the start of the new year, adding: ‘always space for you.’ 

Another email included in the recently-released files appeared to be from Melania Trump, addressed to Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s girlfriend and co-conspirator.

The message begins: ‘Dear G! How are you? Nice story about JE in NY mag. You look great on the picture.’

That week, New York Magazine ran a now-infamous story headlined: ‘Jeffrey Epstein: International Moneyman of Mystery.’

The email continues: ‘I know you are very busy flying all over the world. How was Palm Beach? I cannot wait to go down. Give me a call when you are back in NY. Have a great time!’

It is signed affectionately: ‘Love, Melania.’

Maxwell is serving a 20-year prison sentence on sex trafficking charges for helping to recruit some of Epstein’s underage victims. 

Epstein pleaded guilty to soliciting prostitution from someone under the age of 18 and served time in Florida before his death in August 2019, a month after he was indicted on federal sex trafficking charges.
