Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez, who have been dating for four years after becoming public with their romance, are reportedly engaged. The New York Post’s Page Six said that the news came from “an insider close to the couple.” A person told People magazine that there will be a wedding. CNN also said that there were no more information about the proposal or the wedding plans.
Bezos, 59, and Sanchez, 53, are on holiday in the south of France, where they are said to be going to the Cannes Film Festival. This has led to rumors about them. People magazine has pictures of Sanchez with a big ring on her finger.
Last week, the couple was seen sailing off the coast of the Spanish island Mallorca on Bezos’s huge new sailing boat, Koru. The three-masted schooner is said to be one of the biggest yachts in the world. It costs $500 million and has a figurehead on the front that looks like Sanchez.

Bezos and Sanchez started dating around January 2019, right after the founder of Amazon, Jeff Bezos, said that he and his wife of 25 years, MacKenzie Bezos, were getting a divorce. Since then, MacKenzie Scott has gotten a second wife, gotten a divorce, and given billions of dollars to many different groups. Bezos and Scott are parents to four children.
Sanchez used to be a TV news anchor and a helicopter pilot. She was married to Patrick Whitesell, who was the head of an entertainment and media business called Endeavor. They have two kids together, and Sanchez also has a son with a former NFL player.
Sanchez is vice chair of the Bezos Earth Fund at the moment. She told WSJ Magazine before that she wants to do what her wealthy boyfriend did and take a trip on the suborbital rocket ship that Bezos’ Blue Origin space company built. Sanchez stated that the mission’s crew would be entirely female.
