Jeff Bezos has been engaged to Lauren Sánchez since May 2023, when he proposed with a pink diamond ring hidden under her pillow.
“When he opened the box, I think I blacked out a bit,” Sánchez told Vogue in 2023.
The journalist and pilot, 54, has been linked to the Amazon founder, 60, since January 2019.
Sánchez has posted about their love on social media, calling Bezos “the most loving and supportive partner” in an Instagram post for his 59th birthday in 2023.
Bezos was previously married to philanthropist MacKenzie Scott from 1993 until 2019. The pair share four children.
Sánchez shares two children with her ex-husband, Hollywood agent Patrick Whitesell, as well as one child with former NFL player Tony Gonzalez.
She’s an Emmy-winning journalist
Sánchez is an Emmy-winning journalist and a former co-host of “Good Day LA” on KTTV and correspondent for "Extra."
She was up for a co-host position on ABC’s “The View” in 1999, but the spot ultimately went to journalist Lisa Ling. Barbara Walters personally called Sánchez to let her know she hadn’t been selected, Sánchez told The Wall Street Journal in 2023.
Sánchez says she still cherishes advice she received from Walters.
“She really helped me with my career. Not only as someone I looked up to, but really guided me when I was up for 'The View,'” she told The Wall Street Journal.
She’s a seasoned pilot
Sánchez has long had a passion for aviation. She received her fixed-wing pilot license in the early 2010s and followed that up with a helicopter license, according to.
