Bill
Gates
has
coded
a
new
romance.
Just
a
few
weeks
after
reflecting
on
his
regrets
surrounding
the
end
of
his
27-year
marriage
to
Melinda
French
Gates,
the
Microsoft
co-founder
shared
rare
insight
into
his
dating
life—and
even
gave
his
new
love Paula
Hurd
a
shoutout.
“That’s
right,
I’m
lucky
to
have
a
serious
girlfriend,”
Bill
said
during
an
interview
with
Today
on
Feb.
4.
“Her
name’s
Paula.”
The

Code
author,
who
first
sparked
romance
rumors
with
Paula
in
2023,
also
detailed
the
quality
time
they
spend
together.
“So
we’re
having
fun,”
Bill,
69,
continued.
“Going
to
the
Olympics
and
lots
of
great
things.”
Bill
was
previously
married
to
Melinda
from
1994-2021.
During
their
decades-long
relationship,
the
Microsoft
co-founder
and
the
philanthropist
welcomed
children
Jennifer
Gates
Nassar,
28, Rory
Gates,
25,
and Phoebe
Gates,
22.
Indeed,
tennis
has
played
a
major
role
in
Bill
and
Paula’s
relationship.
