Kapanlagi.com - The youngest child of Bill Gates and Melinda French, Phoebe Gates, made her parents proud. On June 15, 2024, she successfully graduated from Stanford University with a Bachelor of Science degree in human biology. What's even more impressive is that she was able to complete her studies in just three years, at the age of 21.

At that time, her mother also attended her graduation and became a speaker at the 2024 Stanford University graduation. Wow, how cool! According to Hello Magazine, Phoebe explained the reason why she wanted to graduate quickly. She said, "I knew I had to do this if I could, because I wanted to see my mother speak at this year's graduation as one of the graduates."

"So, graduating faster to see my mother speak was a dream come true," she added. "There is no better ending than this!"

On that special moment, her father, Bill, also celebrated with Phoebe's boyfriend, Arthur Donald. Now, Arthur is not just anyone, he is the grandson of the legendary British singer, Paul McCartney. Phoebe's childhood friend, Izzy, also came to the graduation party.

Phoebe herself said, "This is the end of one chapter, and the beginning of another, and it feels very special to spend time with family and friends to celebrate this,"

At the graduation party, her mother, Melinda, gave a more personal speech. Phoebe praised her mother by saying, "She is truly inspirational, and I am really grateful for all the attention and support!"

1. Plan to Develop Fashion Business

Phoebe also shared that her father made a funny joke at her graduation party. He told everyone that Bill used to dance. "I'm so happy to have both my parents by my side today," she said.

After graduating, Phoebe is now focused on building Phia, a fashion business label that she co-founded with her friend and former roommate, Sophia Kianni. Last year, they collaborated with British designer Stella McCartney to create a cool collection of limited edition bags to support the Women's Tennis Association.

The event also served as a promotion for Phia. However, only a few details have been revealed about the business, aside from the digital fashion platform they described on their Instagram as the 'fashion of the future'.

"Phia is still a secret, but one of its founders, Sophia, and I are super excited to launch this year, and we can't wait to get started," Phoebe said. She also asked people to follow their business journey on Instagram and TikTok. "Where we provide (a behind-the-scenes look) of our process."

2. Revealing the Figure of a Lover

In the NY Post report, Phoebe finally admitted that she is dating Paul McCartney's grandson. After eight months of their photos together being uploaded on social media, Phoebe wrote next to a sweet photo of her boyfriend carrying her on his back, "My boyfriend, Arthur, carried me after the ceremony," last Friday.

She also shared another photo of Donald with a caption saying that he 'cleans well.' This couple first made headlines in October 2023 when Phoebe uploaded a photo of the two of them with Donald on her Instagram account from their vacation in Paris.

Donald graduated from Yale University in 2021 with a major in history. Before dating Phoebe, he was reportedly close to Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe's daughter, Ava, in 2018.

3. Bill Gates' Statement Sparks Criticism

Meanwhile, Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, said in his blog that climate change is largely caused by developing countries, including Indonesia. However, there is an environmental health expert named Dicky Budiman who says that it's not just us who are damaging the earth, but all countries, including developed countries.

"If we talk about which countries contribute to the destruction of the planet, actually all countries, including developed countries, are involved. So we can't just point fingers, for example, Bill Gates in America pointing at countries like Indonesia," said Dicky to Health Liputan6.com via voice message on Tuesday, June 25, 2024.

"Furthermore, developed countries have high consumerism and high consumption levels. This leads to an increase in waste production and resource usage. Or they (developed countries) have money, they have textile factories in poor or developing countries, and developed countries accept the products. This also contributes to the worsening situation (of the climate). Although on the other hand, they also have a positive role, for example, with clean technology and environmentally friendly technology," said Dicky.
