The files claimed that late financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein wrote emails, revealing that Bill Gates contracted a sexually transmitted disease from sex with “Russian girls" and asked for antibiotics to give to his then-wife, Melinda, secretly.
The reports emerged as journalists began combing through a massive new release of Epstein-related material disclosed by the United States Department of Justice.
According to reports by The Sun and Daily Mail, the allegations appear in screenshots of emails Epstein allegedly sent to himself on July 18, 2013.
The messages include passages in which Epstein berated Gates for cutting ties with him and accused the billionaire of asking him to delete correspondence about a sexually transmitted disease and a request for antibiotics to secretly give to Melinda.
The Daily Mail reported that Epstein wrote he had been “dismayed beyond comprehension" by Gates’s decision to end their relationship, and quoted a line in which Epstein complained, “To add insult to the injury you them (sic) implore me to please delete the emails regarding your STD, your request that I provide you antibiotics that you can surreptitiously give to Melinda and the description of your penis."
The Sun echoed those quotations and added that the documents appear to be drafts of letters Epstein was composing rather than messages he actually sent, including one written as though from the perspective of Gates’s former adviser Boris Nikolic around the time of his resignation from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
Both outlets quoted another alleged Epstein-authored passage claiming Nikolic had been drawn into a marital dispute between the couple and pressured into conduct described as ethically questionable or potentially illegal, including helping Gates obtain drugs and facilitating meetings with other women.
The tabloids underlined that there is no independent verification of Epstein’s assertions.
Gates Issues Strong Denial
In statements quoted by both newspapers, Gates rejected the accusations outright.
A spokesperson told the Daily Mail that the claims were “absolutely absurd and completely false," adding, “The only thing these documents demonstrate is Epstein’s frustration that he did not have an ongoing relationship with Gates and the lengths he would go to entrap and defame."
The reports also noted that Gates has previously acknowledged meeting Epstein but has long denied wrongdoing, saying he regretted the association after learning more about the disgraced financier.
The Sun further reported that the DOJ release includes undated photographs of Epstein and Gates together, including one image in which Gates is seen beside a woman whose face has been redacted.
Context From The DOJ File Release
The Justice Department has begun disclosing more than three million pages of records, along with thousands of videos and photographs, tied to Epstein and his contacts with wealthy and influential figures.
By Friday evening, more than 600,000 documents had been published online, though millions more identified for possible release remain sealed, drawing political criticism.
The early batch of files details Epstein’s communications with several prominent individuals, as well as internal correspondence among investigators following his 2019 death in a New York jail, which multiple official inquiries have ruled a suicide.
Epstein was arrested on federal sex trafficking charges in July 2019 and found dead in his cell just over a month later.
