Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are engaged
The news comes as the couple are currently in the South of France for the Cannes Film Festival.
After dating for close to five years, billionaire Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are now engaged.
The news comes as the couple are currently in the South of France fo the Cannes Film Festival, with an insider telling Page Six the couple have decided to take the next step in their relationship.
Wedding rumors have followed the couple in recent months after Sanchez was spotted wearing a heart-shaped ring.
Bezos and Sanchez’s relationship
The couple began dating back in 2018, but news that they were dating only began to filter in 2019.
However, they still kept a low profile as Bezos’ divorce from Mackenzie Bezos, his wife of 25 years, was being finalized. Sanchez was also still married to Hollywood talent mogul Patrick Whitesell at the time.
Mackenzie received $37 billion from the divorce and pledged half of it to charity. She later married Dan Jewett in March 2021, but the couple split less than two years later.
Jeff and Mackenzie share a son together, 23-year-old Preston. Sanchez and Whitesell share two kids together, Ella ,15, and Evan, 16. She also has a 22-year-old son Nikko with former NFL player Tony Gonzalez.
Since then, Bezos and Sanchez have travelled the world, with Sanchez speaking lovingly about Bezos to WSJ Magazine in January.
“He’s so happy, he inspires me every day, he makes me a better person every day; he’s the most loving human I know,” she told the outlet.
She also sent him best wishes on Instagram back in January to celebrate his birthday.
“Happy birthday to the man of my dreams, who lights up my world with his laughter and kind heart,” she wrote on Instagram.
“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.”
