The festivities, which are expected to cost over $50 million, will end on Saturday with a lavish supper at a historic waterfront venue. Elton John and Lady Gaga are reportedly planning to perform soon.
A diamond necklace worth up to $5 million
According to Page Six, Bezos gave his bride a diamond necklace with a big center stone and matching earrings that were thought to be worth between $3 and $5 million.
The necklace "couldn't be ignored because of its striking size," according to the insider, implying that Sanchez would probably use it during the wedding. According to the story, Sanchez has a jewelry collection valued at over $30 million, and she takes pictures of her clothes before public appearances to check them out.
This action was taken around a year after the pair declared their engagement in May 2023, following the discovery of a huge diamond engagement ring on Sanchez's finger while on a cruise aboard their opulent boat, "Koru."
It's important to remember that Bezos and Sanchez started dating in 2019 and that their romance became one of the most well-known in the world of affluent people.
In 2019, Bezos ended his 25-year marriage to MacKenzie Scott, with whom he has four children, in a divorce. Lauren Sanchez has three children from her marriage to Patrick Whitesell.
