Phoebe Gates and Arthur Donald

Phoebe Gates, 22, has always been a free spirit, and is passionate about social issues as well as fashion. The Stanford University alumnus has often voiced her views on women’s health and sustainability.
Phoebe is currently dating Arthur Donald, Beatles legend Paul McCartney's grandson. They began dating in 2022, after meeting through Phoebe's collaboration with designer Stella McCartney. While both of them come from prominent family backgrounds, they have managed to keep their relationship private, away from scrutiny. Phoebe has shared a few glimpses of their love on social media though. One of them is a photo taken in Paris in October 2023 and another a playful piggyback ride in NYLON's Graduation Diary in 2024.
As for Arthur, he's also surprisingly low-key given the high profile family he comes from. While Phoebe has admitted that she’s not particularly invested in the music world, she found herself attending an Elton John concert with Arthur early in their relationship, where a funny moment occurred when she didn’t realize Elton John’s sexual orientation, which sparked laughter among Arthur’s family.

Phoebe is content in her relationship, but also reveals the pressure of introducing boyfriends to her famous father. "I think it’s terrifying for the guy," Phoebe shared in an interview, acknowledging how her dad’s "social awkwardness" adds an extra layer of complexity to the experience.
While Phoebe has found a partner of her choice in Arthur, she recently opened up about a past relationship where a sexist comment made by her ex led to their breakup, in "Call Her Daddy" podcast.

Jennifer Gates, now 30, is at a different stage in life, compared to her younger sister Phoebe who's still navigating the dating world. Jennifer has been in the public eye for the longest time as the daughter of one of the world’s wealthiest men. However, Jennifer, despite the limelight, tries to maintain a sense of normalcy in her life. She met Nayel Nassar, an Olympic equestrian, in 2017. The couple connected over their passion for horses. Nayel, born in Chicago but raised in Kuwait, comes from a well-established family with a background in architecture and design.
Over time, their relationship blossomed, and they got engaged in 2020. In October 2021, Jennifer and Nayel got married in a private ceremony at their farm in Westchester County, New York, a few months after her parents' divorce.
They welcomed their first child, a daughter named Leila, in March 2023, and celebrated the arrival of their second daughter, Mia, in October 2024.
