“Greatest Joy”: Melinda Gates Unwraps Heartwarming Holiday Tradition With Equestrian Daughter for Her 9-Month-Old Grandchild

Billionaire ex-spouses Bill Gates and Melinda Gates reunite often, and most reunions happen because of their equestrian daughter. Jennifer Gates and her husband Nayel Nassar welcomed their adorable munchkin Leila in March 2023. Since then, the Gates family has been smothering her with love. Now, as she touches her 9th month mark, it’s an emotional time for her gran.

The bells have already started jingling and the families are planning holiday celebrations. Similarly, Jenn and her mother Melinda met over Skype as a pre-Christmas thing. While engaging themselves in artsy stuff, the mother-daughter duo opened their hearts out to discuss little Leila.

Greeting each other with “Hi Jen!” and “Hi Mom!”, Jenn and Mom Gates started their fun-filled ‘artsy’ conversation. But the highlight of their interaction was little Leila. When the 27-year-old asked, “What’s your favorite part about being a grandma?” Smiling brightly, the new granny spoke about the sunshine of her life. She said, “Just being able to delight in every little thing that she does.”

New mommy Jenn chimed in to say, “It’s so incredible to see her grow. And so fun to be experiencing with you, too.” Finally, Melinda French Gates concluded the conversation with the most precious statement, saying, “Greatest joy of the year for sure.” Despite the divorce struggles, her philanthropic journey is still going strong. But now Leila has most of the attention.

A few months ago, when the family celebrated Leila’s 7th month milestone, some pictures stirred a buzz on the internet. The 27-year-old posed with her curious baby alongside husband Nassar, but the fans were more delighted to notice her resemblance with a family favorite.
