Melinda, 59, has put an end to rumors of an engagement after being spotted with a diamond ring on her finger over the weekend. She has confirmed that she and her boyfriend Jon, 65, have split. Jon, who has a controversial past, once admitted to verbally abusing his ex-wife. The news was confirmed by Melinda’s spokesperson to Page Six, stating that she is not engaged and is no longer dating Jon Du Pre. Their relationship raised eyebrows due to their stark differences from each other and from Melinda’s ex-husband, Bill Gates. Jon’s past and interests were a far cry from Bill’s, leading to speculation about their relationship. Despite the breakup, Melinda remains positive about her life and future endeavors.
