Here’s what you need to know about Melinda and Bill Gates’ youngest daughter, Phoebe.
A childhood like no other
Born on September 14, 2002, in Bellevue, a suburb of Seattle, Washington, the 19-year-old old currently lives in her parents’ US$124 million lakefront eco-mansion that’s nicknamed Xanadu 2.0.
The Gates kids grew up in a home that features a trampoline room, an artificial beach with natural Caribbean sand, an artificial stream with real fish and even an indoor swimming pool.
But living in a mansion filled with the niceties of life doesn’t mean these kids were spoiled. The power couple raised their kids in surprisingly modest ways, making sure their children shared the housework – washing dishes together almost every night was practically a Gates family tradition.
