Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are newlyweds!
Hours after the Amazon founder and his partner of six years officially tied the knot in a lavish star-studded ceremony in Venice, Italy, the two wrapped up their week-long celebrations on June 28 with a private lunch at Harry’s Bar.
For their first public appearance as husband and wife, the former news anchor, 55, donned a chic off-the-shoulder black dress and sun hat as she blew kisses to onlookers. Meanwhile, the 61-year-old kept it casual with a brown t-shirt and matching trousers.
Lauren and Jeff’s outing came one day after the two—who confirmed their engagement in May 2023—hosted a glamorous Italian wedding on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore with just under 200 guests. And among those guests were stars like Orlando Bloom, Eva Longoria, Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kris Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, Kendall Jenner and many more.
To make the ceremony even more memorable, Lauren’s two sons Nikko, 24, and Evan, 19—whom she shares with ex-boyfriend Tony Gonzales and ex-husband Patrick Whitesell, respectively—were right by their mother’s side as she walked down the aisle.
“Her two sons will walk her down the aisle, she tells me” Vogue’s Chloe Malle wrote following an interview with Lauren published June 27, “apologizing that she can’t help tearing up as she envisions it.”
For her part, Lauren’s 17-year-old daughter Ella, whom she shares with ex Patrick, was her esteemed maid of honor.
Two months ago, Lauren marked another big milestone when she launched into space alongside Katy Perry, Gayle King and more in Jeff’s Blue Origin Rocket Launch. And while she was ecstatic to be taking part in the historic mission, which brought an all women crew 62 miles above earth to the Kármán line, Lauren was most excited about returning home to her fiancé.
“All the love that was in that capsule, and all the heart and the feelings, and seeing Jeff before I left, I just,” she told Blue Origin at the West Texas launch site. “I had to come back. I mean, we’re getting married! If I didn’t come back that would be a bummer for me.”
