Reminds me of the Tintin book, "Cigars of the Pharaoh". Check out background in the cover:

She never was. And I don't think Gates will be, isn't most of their fortune tied to the foundation?

It's a surprise for sure.
Though for some reason I can just see Bill realising he isn't getting any younger and deciding to do this for the variety. Expect him to rock up with a hot young east Asian woman someday soon.
