Bill Gates' billionaire ex wife Melinda flashes a HUGE new diamond ring on ... trends now
Melinda French Gates has been spotted flashing a huge new diamond ring on her engagement finger after stepping off a private helicopter at a New York City helipad.
Melinda was all smiles as she was by an assistant who helped with her luggage.
She was seen carrying a large pink Chanel shopping bag that retails for around $6,600.
She also wore a light beige mesh jacket, fitting for the spring weather. Underneath she could be seen wearing a white blouse, black trousers, and Loewe sneakers that retail for $600.
But it was the huge rock on her ring finger that was front and center as she stepped away from the chopper.

There has been no public announcement of Melinda getting engaged, but since their high-stakes split in 2021, both she and ex-husband Bill have both reportedly been dating new partners.
After the couple split, Melinda spoke out in detail about what lead to the uncoiling of her marriage, and she said there wasn't one particular thing that lead to their breakup, but rather it was a bunch of things that added up over time.
She revealed that she slowly realized she 'wasn't healthy' in the relationship, and that she could no longer 'trust what she and Bill had.'
Melinda French Gates has a current net worth of about $13 billion; Bill Gates has a fortune worth more than $148 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
Earlier this year, the pair divided personal services, such as private jets, security and other functions previously housed for both of them under an entity called Watermark.
