Congratulations are in order for Jennifer Gates and Nayel Nassar! The eldest daughter of Bill Gates has welcomed her first child.
The new mom, 26, and her husband, 32, announced the news of their first baby at the end of last year, a little over a year after they tied the knot in 2021.
This is the first grandchild for the Microsoft visionary, who has two other children, Rory, 23, and Phoebe, 20, with his ex-wife, Melinda French Gates. The couple divorced in 2021 after 27 years of marriage.
