Is Amazon owner and billionaire Jeff Bezos engaged to his partner Lauren Sanchez? Learn all there is to know about his relationship with Sanchez.
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his partner Lauren Sanchez have recently got engaged, a source close to the couple has confirmed. Bezos and Sanchez have reportedly been dating since 2018, but only went public with their relationship once the Amazon billionaire’s divorce from his first wife MacKenzie Scott was finalised in 2019.
Rumours about their engagement began swirling when Lauren Sanchez was spotted with a 20-carat diamond ring on her finger this week. No details about a possible wedding date or the proposal are immediately available.
Jeff Bezos, 59, and Lauren Sanchez, 53, are currently attending the Cannes Film Festival in France, where they made a grand entrance in Bezos’s $500 million megayacht named Koru. This is one of their several appearances together since they started dating – they have been spotted at charity galas, award shows, music festivals and have visited several places around the world together. Sanchez also accompanied Bezos on his trip to India in 2020.
Lauren Sanchez is a former broadcast journalist, helicopter pilot and founder of Black Ops Aviation. She was earlier married to Patrick Whitesell, a Hollywood agent with whom she has a son and a daughter. Bezos, meanwhile, shares four kids — a daughter and three sons — with ex-wife MacKenzie Scott, whom he was married to for 25 years.
What did the couple have to say about each other?
The couple have been very complimentary of each other whenever they have had the chance to speak about each other.
In a 2022 interview with CNN, the Amazon billionaire described Sanchez as “the most generous, most big-hearted person that you would ever meet.” Sanchez returned the favour on his birthday this year, when she shared a post describing Bezos as “the most loving and supportive partner.”
The post read: “Happy birthday to the man of my dreams, who lights up my world with his laughter and kind heart. You have shown me that no great love is not bravely fought for. Thank you for always being by my side and for being the most loving and supportive partner. I am so grateful for the memories we have made and the adventures yet to come. Here’s to many more birthdays filled with love and laughter. Te amo con todo mi corazon.”
