Lauren Sánchez celebrated her 54th birthday with flair. The Emmy Award-winning journalist and Jeff Bezos’s fiancée uploaded a collection of photos on Instagram last Monday. These photos show her and a group of friends dressed in eye-catching red dresses, posing on what seems to be a luxury yacht.
For the occasion, Sánchez chose a lingerie-like, floor-length gown with stomach cutouts, while her friends, whom she affectionately calls “family,” donned a variety of red dresses in assorted patterns, materials, and designs. Among those tagged in her pre-birthday celebration photos were October Gonzalez, Lydia Kives, Veronica Smiley Grazer, Jamie Sherrill, Elsa Collins, and Elena S. Blair.
Sánchez expressed in her caption that she was feeling a sense of love and gratitude ahead of her birthday, surrounded by these incredible women who play a significant role in her life. She described these women as more than friends, considering them family, and emphasized her deep trust and love for them, as well as the fun they have together.
The group was photographed on the yacht’s deck, and in the first few photos, another boat is visible in the distance. In the final photo, Sánchez is seen playfully sticking out her tongue, joined by Collins and surrounded by numerous lit candles.
Under Sánchez’s Instagram post, numerous celebrities conveyed their birthday wishes. Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Ivanka Trump, and Kathy Hilton were among those who commented with messages of celebration and affection.
Looking ahead, 2024 is shaping up to be an exciting year for Sánchez as she prepares to wed Bezos. The couple, engaged since May, shared in a recent Vogue profile that Sánchez fully intends to take Bezos’s last name, eagerly anticipating becoming Mrs. Bezos.
Sánchez also mentioned considering Christian Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, and Valentino as potential designers for her wedding dress, expressing enthusiasm for the numerous incredible designers and her intent to make a decision when she has more time.
