Jeff Bezos is engaged to his girlfriend Lauren Sanchez. According to Daily Mail, Sanchez's brother, Michael Sanchez referred to Bezos as his sister's "fiance" in a defamation lawsuit.
Sanchez, a Hollywood talent manager, sued Jeff Bezos and his security consultant Gavin de Becker of defamation. In the lawsuit, Sanchez claimed that Bezos and his team falsely accused him of providing his explicit photos to The National Enquirer.
Expose the extramarital relationship between Bezos and Lauren Sanchez
The outlet was the first to expose the extramarital relationship between Bezos and Lauren Sanchez in January 2019. The revelation led Bezos to end his decades-long marriage to MacKenzie Bezos.
The lawsuit claimed that Bezos and Lauren Sanchez had been dating for months before the photos were leaked and emphasized that Lauren had a role in leaking their intimate texts and photos.
The court document state:
While Mr de Becker's initial a s serted theory was that Mr. Sanchez had sold out his sister for $200,000, Mr de Becker soon realized this theory would not hold up because, among other reasons, it was inconceivable that Mr. Sanchez would ruin his relationship with his sister and her current fiance, the richest man in the world, for financial gain
It was only a small section of his lawsuit where he referred to Bezos as Lauren's "current fiance." Meanwhile, Lauren Sanchez was snapped wearing a large ring on her ring finger right hand while they were vacationing in St Barth.
