Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are engaged to be married. The Amazon founder reportedly popped the question to his girlfriend while on board his brand-new superyacht, Koru in May.
He reportedly gave Sanchez a cushion-cut diamond ring that is somewhere between 20 and 30 carats, and worth upwards of $2.5 million.
In August, Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez celebrated with an engagement party on board the yacht in Positano, Italy. Guests included Bill Gates, Wendi Murdoch, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kris Jenner, and numerous other celebrities.
“He’s so happy, he inspires me every day, he makes me a better person every day,” Sánchez told the Wall Street Journal earlier this year. “He’s the most loving human I know.”
Bezos said in an interview, “Lauren is the most generous, most big-hearted person that you would ever meet. So, she is an inspiration in that way. She never misses a birthday. The network of people that she gives birthday presents to is gigantic. And that’s just a small example.” Sánchez added in the same interview, “We’re really great teammates, and we also have a lot of fun together. And we love each other … We always look at each other and we’re the team.”
