“I’m half passed out.” Lauren Sanchez recounts Jeff Bezos’ marriage proposal

in the pages of the latest edition of American VogueJeff Bezos and his fiancee, Lauren Sanchez, were photographed very (too?) with love. Much to the dismay of many Internet users who saw this as a well-established communication strategy. But outside of this controversial shoot, the former talk show host opened up about her upcoming marriage to journalist Chloe Malle. She especially remembered the moment when Jeff Bezos asked her to marry him.

It was early summer, when the couple had just started their trip around the Mediterranean Sea on the giant three-masted Koru, which the former Amazon boss had recently acquired for half a billion dollars. According to the article Vogue:Jeff Bezos would hide the engagement ring under his lover’s pillow after two dinners under the stars. After that, Lauren Sanchez went to remove her makeup before going to bed. And that’s where he discovered the 20-carat diamond. “When he opened the box, I think I half passed out,” says the future Mrs. Bezos Vogue:.

Preparatory work is underway

In the rest of the interview, we also learn that the preparations for the wedding are still being discussed. “Will it be big?” Will it happen abroad? We don’t know yet. We’ve only been engaged for five months,” recalls Lauren Sanchez, who says she can’t wait to take her partner’s last name.

Let’s remind that Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez officially confirmed their relationship in 2019, after starting an affair the previous year. At the time, the businessman had just announced his separation from his ex-wife, philanthropist Mackenzie Scott, after twenty-five years of marriage and four children. The latter received 38 billion dollars (more than 35 billion euros) when the divorce was finally approved.
