Lisa, Jobs’ eldest daughter, was born in 1978 to Jobs and his former partner Chrisann Brennan when they were both 23. In her 2018 memoir "Small Fry," she wrote that Jobs arrived days after her birth and said: "It’s not my kid."

Jobs and Brennan had met as teenagers in Cupertino, California, in the early 1970s and dated on and off for about five years. They were high school sweethearts before Jobs ended the relationship after Brennan became pregnant in 1977.

He later denied paternity in court documents, claiming he was "sterile and infertile, and as a result, thereof, did not have the physical capacity to procreate a child," according to People.

Brennan relied on government welfare while working multiples jobs before taking legal action to prove Lisa was his biological daughter, according to the Daily Mail. A DNA test confirmed paternity, though he reportedly continued to reject the result at first.

In 1980, despite already being a multimillionaire, Jobs was ordered to pay $500 a month in child support and provide medical insurance until Lisa turned 18. When Lisa was nine, he formally acknowledged her as his daughter. During her teenage years, she moved in with him in an attempt to rebuild their relationship, though she later said they spent little time together.

She later attended Harvard University and spent a year studying abroad at King's College London. On her first day at Harvard, Lisa chose not to invite him. She wrote in her memoir that he held it against her for nearly a decade, ignoring her birthdays and not responding to her emails or calls. When she asked why, he replied: "I’m not too good at communication."

While promoting his authorized biography in 2011, Jobs reflected on his regrets, saying: "I’ve done a lot of things I’m not proud of, such as getting my girlfriend pregnant when I was 23 and the way I handled that."

Their relationship remained complicated until Jobs’ death. During one visit, just three months before he died of cancer in 2011, Lisa briefly stepped into the bathroom to spray rose-scented facial mist before returning to his bedside. When she came back, Jobs looked at her and said: "You smell like a toilet."

In "Small Fry," Lisa revealed that days before his death, he told her: "I didn’t spend enough time with you when you were little." She wrote that he repeatedly said: "I owe you one, I owe you one."

After graduating from Harvard in 2000, she moved to New York to pursue writing and has contributed to Vogue, The Massachusetts Review and O, The Oprah Magazine. Now married to software designer Bill, Lisa lives in Brooklyn with their son, Thomas.

Born on July 9, 1998, Eve is the youngest of Jobs’ three children with his wife, Laurene Powell Jobs, whom he married in 1991. By the time she was born, the Apple’s co-founder had already become one of the world’s most influential technology figures.

She received an elite education and graduated from Stanford University in 2021 with a degree in science, technology and society, the same university where her parents met. Beyond academics, Eve built a strong reputation in equestrian sports.

According to Horse Sport, she ranked fifth among the world’s top 1,000 riders under 25 in 2019. In 2016, her mother purchased a $15 million ranch in Wellington, Florida, featuring a 20-horse barn and a professional show-jumping training arena, according to Business Insider.

She later entered the fashion world, making her modeling debut in Glossier’s 2020 holiday campaign. She made her Paris Fashion Week debut in 2021, walking for Coperni, and signed with DNA Model Management in 2022.

She has since become a regular at major fashion events, appearing at Paris Fashion Week, the Met Gala, the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, the WSJ Magazine Innovator Awards and the Time100 Gala.

In Walter Isaacson’s biography "Steve Jobs," Eve was described as "a strong-willed, funny firecracker" who knew how to challenge her father. Isaacson wrote that Jobs once joked he could imagine her either running Apple or becoming president of the U.S. "She’s a pistol and has the strongest will of any kid I’ve ever met," he told Isaacson.

In July 2025, the 27-year-old heiress married British Olympian Harry Charles in a high-society wedding in Cotswolds countryside in England, U.K., reportedly costing around £5 million (US$6.7 million), according to The Times.

Guests included former U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris, a longtime friend of Laurene, and Jennifer Gates Nassar, daughter of Bill and Melinda French Gates, who, like Eve, is also an equestrian.

Eve has an estimated net worth of between $500,000 and $1 million, largely earned through her modeling and equestrian career, as reported by Prestige magazine.
