Billionaire Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has described as false media reports that said he is set to marry his fiancée Lauren Sanchez in an extravagant $600 million wedding in Aspen, Colorado, next Saturday.
Bezos made this clarification in a statement on his official X on Saturday.
There were reports that Bezos and Sanchez had been together since 2019, shortly after the businessman and his ex-wife, MacKenzie Scott, finalised their divorce the same year.

He reports claimed that the pair became engaged in May 2023 and decided to tie the knot in a lavish wedding next weekend that would cost up to $600 million.
However, Bezos, in swift reaction, clarified that the reports that had gone viral were false and sought immediate correction.
“Furthermore, this whole thing is completely false — none of this is happening. The old adage “don’t believe everything you read” is even more true today than it ever has been,” Bezos said.
“Now lies can get all the way around the world before the truth can get its pants on.
“So be careful out there, folks, and don’t be gullible. It will be interesting to see if all the outlets that “covered” and re-reported on this issue make a correction when it comes and goes and doesn’t happen.”
