Jeff Bezos Photographing Lauren Sanchez In Bikini On Yacht Deemed Awkward

Jeff Bezos is still front-page news for his lavish wedding to Lauren Sanchez. At the end of June, the Amazon boss splashed out a reported $20 million for his nuptials in Venice, Italy, making headlines for getting married, but also for attracting a star-studded guest list.

Jeff, 61, tied the knot with 55-year-old Lauren during Europe's massive heatwave, although Lauren managed her fitted Dolce & Gabbana wedding gown without a hitch. Fans, meanwhile, have been busy discussing the hot couple, and that means checking out their old photos.

In 2023, Jeff was spotted on a yacht with Lauren, but fans got the ick as he photographed the former journalist while she was bikini-clad.

Scroll for the photos. While rather blurry, they showed Jeff turning his lavish yacht outing into an impromptu shoot.

Snapping photos of Lauren with a cell phone, the entrepreneur seemed keen to capture Lauren's killer curves, with Lauren seen leaning against the yacht's railings.

Modeling a skimpy swimsuit that highlighted her fit figure, the New Mexico native dropped jaws with a display of her toned legs and peachy backside, with the camera just about taking in her high-waisted bikini.

While Jeff wore a dark, fitted t-shirt tucked into pants, along with shades, Lauren kept her look far more revealing, her dark locks flowing down. The photos quickly gathered comments.

"Really? Ewww," one fan said. Another added: "I feel sorry for her," with a third saying that Lauren had turned Bezos into "an Instagram boyfriend." Elsewhere, users used sick emoji, with a further fan stating: "He is the perfect example of rich people who don’t know how to spend money." Jeff met Lauren in 2016. The two only went public after Jeff had announced his divorce from his ex-wife, MacKenzie Scott, and Lauren had separated from her then-husband, Patrick Whitesell.

Vogue was quick to document Lauren's custom-made wedding gown on Instagram as it released official wedding photos of the brunette and her insanely rich husband. Lauren's dress, designed by Italian brand Dolce & Gabbana, took over 900 hours to make, boasting a fishtail design, long sleeves, and sheer, lace-embellished sleeves.

Of the dress inspired by icon Sophia Loren, Lauren revealed: "I wanted to reflect back, and I saw Sophia Loren and her hands were like this (imitates a prayer position) and she was in high lace, up to the neck, and I said, 'That’s it. That’s the dress.'"

Jeff Bezos' wedding, which barely put a dent in his $237 billion net worth, was attended by celebrities including Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, and Kris Jenner.

Actress Sydney Sweeney, actors Leonardo DiCaprio and Orlando Bloom, plus mogul Oprah Winfrey, also showed up. Follow our Facebook page for more updates from Jeff and Lauren!
