He’s the grandson of Paul McCartney — as in Sir Paul, the legendary Beatle. Arthur is the eldest son of Mary McCartney, Paul’s daughter with his first wife Linda, and was born in 1999.He’s got that cool British charm, a low-key vibe, and reportedly went to Harvard, where he majored in history. So yes, we’re talking elite brains and Beatles blood — a combo that practically writes its own rom-com.If you’ve been following Phoebe Gates, you know she’s not just chilling in billion-dollar yachts. The 21-year-old Stanford grad is a tech entrepreneur, fashion innovator, and rising voice in sustainable fashion through her AI-powered shopping platform Phia.

She’s also been vocal about using her platform for social causes, women’s rights, and climate awareness. Basically, she’s got ambition, intellect, and the kind of grounded presence that screams “I’m not here just for the inheritance.”Phoebe Gates made things Instagram-official, last year, with a sweet photo captioned, “My boyfriend, Arthur, giving me a lift post-ceremony,” showing Arthur Donald playfully carrying her on his back.The dating buzz first kicked off back in October 2023, as per reports, when Phoebe shared snaps from her Paris trip on Instagram — and yep, Arthur was tagged in one of the pics and spotted in the background. That was enough to set the rumor mill spinning. Later on, the two were seen together at the “Feud: Capote vs. the Swans” premiere, according to Page Six. And when asked about it in an interview? Phoebe played it cool and kept things private, offering zero details about her relationship status.
