Rory John Gates, born in 1999, is the only son of Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates and philanthropist Melinda French Gates. He is one of three children, with two sisters: Jennifer and Phoebe Gates. Raised primarily in Seattle, Rory grew up largely outside the public eye.
From a young age, Rory and his siblings were raised with a strong emphasis on discipline, responsibility, and humility, despite their wealthy background. Bill and Melinda Gates were intentional about providing a disciplined childhood, setting boundaries on technology use, such as not allowing their children to own mobile phones until the age of 14. They also placed limits on allowances and instilled a work ethic by expecting their children to contribute to household chores and explore professional ambitions independently.
Rory Gates is estimated to have a personal net worth of approximately $10 million, largely a result of trust arrangements established by his parents. However, Bill Gates has publicly stated that he does not plan to pass down the entirety of his wealth—once valued at over $100 billion—to his children. Instead, he believes that his children should pursue their own career paths and contribute meaningfully to society using their own initiatives and talents.
Rory maintains a low public profile and is not active on social media platforms. Unlike some children of public figures, he has remained largely out of the limelight, only making occasional appearances with his family at philanthropic or social events. Bill and Melinda Gates have often appeared publicly with all three children, reinforcing their close-knit family dynamic.
While Rory Gates has access to extraordinary resources, his upbringing reflects his parents’ efforts to shield their children from entitlement and to encourage them to make their own mark in the world. With Bill Gates regarded as one of the most influential technology innovators and philanthropists of the modern era, Rory's life is often the subject of public curiosity. Nevertheless, he continues to lead a relatively private life, and limited verified information is available about his professional and personal pursuits.
In line with Bill Gates’s philosophy, Rory appears to be pursuing an independent path, intentionally distanced from excessive public attention. Like his family, he is expected to uphold values rooted in personal responsibility, education, and making a positive impact. Until more is publicly revealed about Rory Gates's own endeavors, he remains one of the more discreet figures among the children of high-profile tech leaders.
