Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s roller coaster romance: from parties with Katy Perry and buying the co-founder of Warner Bros.’ former home, to blackmail and lawsuits

The Amazon CEO and his Fox anchor girlfriend partied with Orlando Bloom and Timothée Chalamet, but it wasn’t all smooth sailing – they also faced a scandal thanks to Donald Trump supporter David Pecker
It’s been a turbulent two years for Jeff Bezos and his girlfriend, Lauren Sánchez.
Despite a tumultuous few months that involved leaked texts, blackmail and a billion-dollar divorce, Bezos and Sánchez are still going strong.
Here’s how their relationship became public and how they’ve spent their time as a couple.
The news that shocked the world
It all started on January 9, 2019 when Bezos and his wife, MacKenzie, issued a joint statement on Twitter that they were getting a divorce.

“As our family and close friends know, after a long period of loving exploration and trial separation, we have decided to divorce and continue our shared lives as friends,” the statement read. “If we had known we would separate after 25 years, we would do it all again.”
But a mere few hours later, a second bomb dropped: Bezos was in a relationship with Sánchez.
