Bezos and Sánchez first connected at a 2016 Amazon Studios party for the film “Manchester by the Sea,” according to Brad Stone’s book, “Amazon Unbound.”
Their relationship “blossomed” during helicopter rides in 2018, when Bezos hired Sánchez’s company to film footage for his rocket company, Blue Origin, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Their relationship came to light in a 2019 tabloid scandal, and the couple went public shortly after Bezos and his now-ex-wife, author and philanthropist MacKenzie Scott, announced their divorce in 2019 following 25 years of marriage.
In May 2023, CNN reported that Sánchez and Bezos had gotten engaged, citing a source close to the couple. Sanchez was also photographed with a large diamond ring on her left ring finger while onboard Bezos’ $500 million megayacht.
In Vogue’s December 2023 issue, Sánchez revealed that Bezos proposed on his yacht, Koru.
“When he opened the box, I think I blacked out a bit,” she said.
While Sánchez and Bezos have often been spotted cruising on his yacht or attending high-profile events, including President Trump’s inauguration, Sánchez says they also have more mundane days at home.
“On a typical Saturday, we hang out, we have dinner with the kids, which is always fun because you never know where the conversation is going to go with this many kids,” Sanchez told The Wall Street Journal in 2023. “We are the Brady Bunch!”
