Bezos and Sánchez’s Venice Wedding Sparks Debate

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are set to marry in Venice in late June 2025, with celebrations potentially held on a Venetian island or aboard Bezos’ superyacht Koru. The multi-day wedding, described as 'the wedding of the century,' has sparked both excitement and protests in Venice, as officials highlight economic gains while activists decry overtourism and commercialization. Sánchez, an Emmy-winning TV anchor and helicopter pilot, is praised for her resilience, while the couple's relationship has been scrutinized and predicted by some, such as 'Living Nostradamus,' to possibly end within a few years. The guest list features celebrities and prominent figures, intensifying global attention. Meanwhile, Bezos’ ex-wife MacKenzie Scott has kept a low profile and focused on philanthropy since their divorce. The event underscores ongoing debates about celebrity, wealth, and their impact on historic cities.
