Epstein's Blackmail Attempt on Bill Gates Over Affair
Bill Gates allegedly had an affair with Mila Antonova, a Russian bridge player and entrepreneur, who was about 30 years younger than him in 2010. The affair was reportedly threatened to be exposed by Jeffrey Epstein, who also introduced Antonova to Gates' confidant, Boris Nikolic. Epstein reportedly paid for Antonova's programming classes, and tried to set up a multibillion-dollar charitable fund with JPMorgan, in part to help repair his public image after his 2008 conviction for soliciting prostitutes. Gates and Epstein had met a handful of times before Epstein's death in 2019, which Gates later said he regrets.
