I would imagine it's difficult to stay deeply involved in something like that with one's ex.
People get divorced for many reasons but generally they don't want to be around each other any more and being co-chairs of a big foundation would make that pretty impossible. Business (or charitable) partnerships are like marriages in a lot of ways.
I've heard (in the worst kind of hearsay way) from people that are only distantly in the Microsoft/Non-profit circle that Melinda could be largely credited for getting Bill to take philanthropy seriously.
If true, that in itself has done a lot of good for the world.
