Smart, beautiful woman, who achieved success in her career, conquered the founder of the company "Microsoft" shoes on a flat sole!

To date, the Gates family has three wonderful children, who are surrounded by maternal love. Melinda protects his family hearth from prying eyes, protects the family from ill-wishers. She does not meet at social parties, parties, she completely devoted her life to her husband and children, not only her own, but also her stranger.

The Melinda Gates Foundation is one of the largest foundations in the world, helping disadvantaged families. Even Bill, being an adult successful man, sometimes hides behind this fragile woman.

Despite the fact that this beautiful woman is not at all a public person, she walked lightly into the world's 50 most successful and influential women. Well, not for nothing they say that a man is a head, and a woman is a neck that skillfully turns his head in the right direction. Even the strongest man becomes weak next to a strong woman!

Luciano Pavarotti and Nicoletta Mentovani are the most discussed couple of the society. Many condemned the great Luciano for a love affair with a woman who is 34 years younger and, moreover, works for him as a secretary. The story of their love is another confirmation of the truth that from love to hatred there is only one step. "Big P.", as it was called only by the closest friends, could not stand this upstart Nicoletta, who allowed herself to listen to rock at the office. This music irritated Luciano, prevented him from working, thinking, even breathing! Conflict over the conflict heated the situation until Nicoletta announced her departure. And then Pavarotti realized that Nicoletta was too important for him to say goodbye to her so easily. She knows all his business partners, in her little blond head there are so many names, phone numbers, addresses that it's foolish of him to lose such an employee.
Once there was one incident, which served as the beginning in their relationship. Nicoletta decided to "borrow" a small green vase in a Florentine hotel. Maestro defended the poor girl, taking a petty theft on himself. Mentovani did not expect such an act from her boss, even in gratitude tied him a warm scarf. They legalized their relationship after 10 years of marriage.

It was a happy, though short-lived marriage, which ended with the death of the maestro. Nicoletta gave Luciano the happiness of being loved and young. He was ready to leave the stage for the sake of this woman, about his intentions saying: "Now I'm walking barefoot along the seashore, I sing to Nicoletta lullabies, I cook scrambled eggs with spinach and listen to our beloved Rolling Stones with her. But mostly I listen to her. It gives me pleasure to hear her voice. If I'm with Nicoletta, then I'm fine everywhere, and I want to be with her forever! "
