Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Are Engaged

Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and former news anchor Lauren Sánchez are engaged, according to FACTZ sources close to the couple. Bezos, who is currently the world’s richest person with a net worth of $177 billion, and Sánchez have been dating for over two years.

The couple has been the subject of media attention since the news of their relationship broke in early 2019. Bezos was previously married to MacKenzie Scott, with whom he has four children. The couple divorced in 2019, with Scott receiving a $38 billion settlement, making her one of the richest women in the world.

Sánchez, who is a helicopter pilot and former television anchor, has a son from her previous marriage. She and Bezos reportedly met through her husband, Hollywood talent agent Patrick Whitesell, who was a friend of Bezos.

Bezos and Sánchez have been spotted together at various events, including the Wimbledon tennis tournament and the Oscars. They were also photographed vacationing together in St. Barth’s and on a yacht in Venice.

The couple has not yet announced a wedding date, but sources say they are planning to tie the knot soon. No further details have been released about the engagement or the upcoming wedding.

Bezos, who founded Amazon in 1994, has recently stepped down as CEO of the company, but he remains its executive chairman. He has been focusing on his space company, Blue Origin, which is set to launch its first crewed mission on July 20.
