Phoebe Gates Boyfriend
Phoebe Gates seems to be dating Arthur Donald, who is Paul McCartney’s grandson. Arthur is 24 years old, and Phoebe is 21. They might have started dating around the end of 2023.
Before dating Arthur, Phoebe was with Robert Ross, a Stanford graduate. But now, most of their pictures together are gone from the internet. Phoebe didn’t include Robert in her 2023 photo and video recap, which shows she has moved on. Instead, she shared a photo with Arthur in Paris from October 2023.
In January 2024, Phoebe and Arthur went to the premiere of “Feud: Capote vs. The Swans” together. Even though Phoebe hasn’t said she is dating Arthur, it seems likely!
