Bill Gates and his girlfriend Paula Hurd always make time to have lunch with the billionaire’s children every week. This is how successful people care for their children. They don’t always run after money.

Paula Hurd, Bill Gates’ girlfriend, seems to be becoming closer to his children.

The three kids of the Microsoft founder, Jennifer, Phoebe, and Rory, were also photographed with the couple on Sunday at the Boucherie restaurant in West Village, New York City.

Paula, the widow of former Oracle CEO Mark Hurd, wore a blazer and shirt that matched her black slacks. For the trip, she also brought a black purse with studs.

After 27 years of marriage, Bill and his ex-wife Melinda Gates got divorced in 2021. He wore jeans and a gray pullover for a laid-back style. He accessorized the ensemble with sneakers and a blue baseball cap.

After the group dinner, Phoebe, the 20-year-old youngest daughter of the tech mogul, was observed getting into a car. She accessorized her light blue trousers and white sneakers with a black-and-white striped shirt.

Nayel Nassar, her brother-in-law, who wed Jennifer, 27, in October 2021, was also observed boarding the SUV.

Professional horseback rider Nassar wore blue trousers, black sneakers, and a gray sweatshirt.

Jennifer, dressed in pink leggings and a blue jean jacket, trailed the two by not too much.

The couple welcomed their only child together in March. Their four-month-old child was not present for the event.

At the meal, Rory, Bill’s 24-year-old son, was also observed donning a maroon sneakers, beige slacks, and a two-tone blue puffer jacket.

Along with her late husband, Paula had two daughters, Kelly and Kathryn. It didn’t seem like they were at the restaurant.

Paula was spotted this week wearing a diamond sparkler on her left ring finger, which brought attention to her and Bill’s relationship.

In the midst of rumors that the two were engaged, Bill, 67, clarified through a representative that marriage was not imminent for the pair.

The tech mogul’s representative told People on Tuesday, “Our office can confirm that the ring Mrs. Hurd was seen wearing has belonged to her for decades.”

The family lunch outing marks a significant milestone in the couple’s courtship, even though they may not be getting married.

People reported in February that Paula had not yet met Bill’s kids.

The insider revealed, “It’s well known that Paula Hurd and Bill Gates are dating, but she hasn’t met his kids yet.”

Though Bill and Paula were spotted together at a number of events in 2022, it wasn’t until January of this year that there were speculations that the two might be more than just pals.
