Lauren Sanchez eagerly plans her wedding to Amazon founder Jeff Bezos

Lauren Sanchez, a former entertainment journalist and helicopter pilot, is eagerly anticipating her marriage to Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. In an interview on Monday with Extra, Sanchez shared her excitement, stating she is thrilled to marry the man of her dreams.

Sanchez, 54, couldn’t hide her joy as she spoke about the upcoming wedding. She expressed her happiness about spending the rest of her life with Bezos, who adores her children. Sanchez has three children: Nikko, 23, with ex Tony Gonzalez, and Evan, 18, and Ella, 16, with ex-husband Patrick Whitesell. She and Bezos, 60, began dating publicly in 2019, with Bezos proposing four years later. Sanchez described the proposal to Vogue in November 2023, revealing her momentary blackout when Bezos presented a cushion-cut diamond ring.

The couple is still ironing out the wedding details. Sanchez mentioned they haven’t decided if the wedding will be a grand affair or held overseas. She has been preoccupied with the release of her children’s book, The Fly Who Flew to Space, but plans to focus on the wedding soon. During her chat with Extra host Billy Bush, Bush humorously offered to be the ring bearer, to which Sanchez responded with amusement.

No date or location for the wedding has been disclosed, but Sanchez’s excitement is evident. Bezos, formerly married to MacKenzie Scott, shares three children with his ex-wife. The blended family, which Sanchez fondly refers to as the “Brady Bunch,” enjoys spending time together. Sanchez mentioned they often have dinners together, with conversations taking unexpected turns.

Earlier in 2023, Sanchez and Bezos captured attention as they cruised around Europe on their mega-yacht, Koru. The media spotlighted Sanchez’s stunning engagement ring, a 20-carat pink diamond. Friends of the couple confirmed the engagement, and they celebrated aboard their $500 million yacht with high-profile guests, including Bill Gates, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Queen Rania of Jordan.
