After his 2021 divorce from Melinda French Gates, Bill Gates went public in 2023 with a new relationship: Paula Hurd, an event planner and philanthropist and the widow of Oracle's former co-CEO Mark Hurd, who died in 2019. The two had been seen together at tennis tournaments since 2021 and made their red-carpet debut at the Breakthrough Prize ceremony; Gates has called her his 'serious girlfriend.' Representatives have said the couple is not engaged despite periodic speculation.

Gates keeps a collection of rare and classic cars
Despite his reputation for frugality in some areas, Bill Gates has long indulged a passion for cars, assembling a collection that has included several Porsches — among them the 911 he has owned for decades and the storied 959 — as well as other classics. His automotive tastes, and the saga of importing the then-illegal 959, are among the more colorful footnotes of his personal life.

Gates retreats for solitary, twice-yearly 'Think Weeks'
For years Bill Gates retreated twice a year to a secluded cabin for a solitary 'Think Week,' during which he read stacks of papers, books, and employee proposals with no interruptions, emerging with strategic memos that shaped Microsoft's direction. The ritual became famous as a model of deep, focused thinking by a busy executive, and was credited with helping spark major pivots — including Microsoft's embrace of the internet. Gates carried the habit of voracious, deliberate reading into his philanthropy.
