Bill Gates Not Looking So Good After Microsoft Affair News Starts Spreading
Microsoft founder Bill Gates had an ‘inappropriate’ sexual relationship with a female staff member in 2000, and resigned while an investigation into the relationship was being investigated by the company board. The affair came to light after the Microsoft employee wrote to the board in 2019 detailing it – and allegedly asked that Gates’ estranged wife Melinda Gates, 56, read the letter. Gates, 65, quit the board suddenly in March 2020 while the investigation was still underway. His spokeswoman confirmed there had been an affair almost 20 years ago but said his decision to leave Microsoft’s board was not linked to it.
The revelation comes alongside two bombshell reports on the unraveling of the couple’s marriage. The Daily Beast revealed Bill Gates sought marriage advice from convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein during dozens of meetings at his $77 million Manhattan townhouse between 2011 and 2014, far more than had previously been reported.
And on Sunday, The New York Times reported that Gates asked two women who worked at Microsoft and his philanthropic foundation out on dates while still married to Melinda. Melinda, who now goes by Melinda French Gates, was also upset at the way allegations of sexual harassment against Michael Larson, one of Gates’ key lieutenants and the manager of his personal fortune, were handled.
Well Bill… You lasted this long but it’s not looking so good for you
There’s A Bridgerton Spin Off Starring Queen Charlotte Coming To Netflix
For those of you who binged all of Bridgerton last holiday season and started off 2021 feeling absolutely devoid of steamy romance, you’re in luck. We already know Netflix has produced a second season of the show and has renewed the fan favorite for a third and fourth season. But here is even better news: They’re expanding the Bridgerton universe with a completely new spinoff of the universe.
The new series, written by Bridgerton executive producer Shona Rhimes, will focus on Queen Charlotte and will look into her life as a young woman before she married King George III.
All Hail The Queen!Â

The storyline will focus on more than one adult in the Bridgerton universe. Deadline confirms that the show will also feature details about the lives of Violet Bridgerton (played by Violet Gemmell) and Lady Danbury (Adjoah Andoh).
Details about casting for the roles of young Charlotte, young Violet, and young Lady Danbury have not yet been released.
There is no release date set for this series yet, but Netflix already has season 2, 3, and 4 lined up. Depending on how Netflix wants to roll things out, this series could come at any point, but when it comes to their hit series, they tend to draw things out to keep their fans hanging on.

Paul McCartney Has 20/20 Vision And Says It’s Because He Does Eye Yoga..
Most people believe that dwindling eyesight is just a fact of life that we all have to deal with as we age. But at 78, Paul McCartney doesn’t have to worry about putting on a pair of glasses to read a book or wave to a fan in the crowd at one of his concerts (when we’re able to have those again). The beloved musician recently shared that simple eye yoga exercises keep his peepers strong and healthy.
McCartney said he learned about the eye exercises from a yogi during a trip he took to India in the late 2000s. “[The yogi] explained that your eyes are muscles whereas your ears aren’t, so you can’t exercise your ears. But your eyes, you can.”
He went on to describe his technique: “So, head still, and then you look up as far as you can, one, two, three, go back to the middle, then down, one, two, three, then back to the middle. You do three lots of that, then go to the left and the right. Now you’ve got a cross, up and down, and sideways, now you do the diagonals.”
McCartney admitted he isn’t a hundred percent sure the exercises are what’s keeping his eyes in such good shape, but it certainly hasn’t hurt. “I don’t know if it means that’s why I don’t need glasses when I’m reading a newspaper,” he said. “It makes sense, you know? It’s a good idea.”
