Lauren Sánchez becomes 'Mrs. Bezos' on Instagram, wipes profile clean after lavish Venice wedding to Amazon founder
Lauren Sánchez has officially embraced her new identity as 'Mrs. Bezos' — both in matrimony and online.
In a symbolic digital move, the former journalist and TV host changed her Instagram handle to 'Lauren Sánchez Bezos' and deleted all previous posts, leaving only a single wedding photograph from her extravagant celebration with Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. Another picture was a snap of her in her beautiful Dolce & Gabbana wedding dress. Lauren Sanchez has changed her name on Instagram and wiped her handle clean.
The couple tied the knot during a grand, multi-day affair in Venice, Italy, on June 27, hosted on the idyllic island of San Giorgio Maggiore.
The remaining photo on Sánchez's Instagram captures the newlyweds hand-in-hand, beaming beneath a grove of trees, surrounded by applauding guests. Sánchez wore a striking lace corseted Dolce & Gabbana gown with a mermaid silhouette and a traditional embroidered veil. Bezos opted for a classic black tuxedo and bow tie.
The Instagram reset appears to be part of a broader rebranding — a public declaration of her new status and identity, now closely aligned with one of the world's most powerful tech moguls.
Sources close to the couple confirmed they had already legally married in the United States before their Italian celebration, having signed a multimillion-dollar prenuptial agreement.
Italian officials have also stated the pair made no formal request to legalise their marriage in Venice, where foreign weddings often require extra documentation and legal steps to be valid under US law.
The Venetian nuptials drew a constellation of celebrities and power players, with attendees including Oprah Winfrey, Bill Gates, Leonardo DiCaprio, Orlando Bloom, and members of both the Kardashian and Trump families.
By deleting her social media history and adopting her new name, Sánchez signals a new chapter in a very public partnership — one that merges media presence, high society, and billionaire influence.

Abhijeet Bhattacharya slams Diljit Dosanjh amid Sardaar Ji 3 row: ‘Hindustan hamare baap ka hai'
Singer Abhijeet Bhattacharya has come down hard on singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh, using an old video clip from one of Diljit's concerts to slam him amid all the hate that he is getting for working with Pakistani actor Hania Aamir in his latest film Sardaar Ji 3. Also read: Naseeruddin Shah defends Diljit Dosanjh for working with Hania Aamir in Sardaar Ji 3: 'They were awaiting…' Abhijeet Bhattacharya fired on Diljit Dosanjh over Sardaar Ji 3 controversy. During his Dil-Luminati Tour, last year Diljit recited late lyricist Rahat Indori's poem, Kisi ke baap ka Hindustan thodi hai, at one of his concerts. And Abhijeet used the video to slam Diljit. He called out Diljit for his 'kisi ke baap ka Hindustan thodi hai" remark through a post on Instagram. He shared a video including Diljit's clip from the concert and a video from his previous interview. In the video montage, Abhijeet is heard saying, 'Hindustan hamare baap ka hain…Hindustan hamare baap ke baap ke baap ke purvajo ka hain (India belongs to our fathers and our forefathers)". The video ended with a picture of Abhijeet holding the Indian flag with Sare Jahan Se Achha playing in the backdrop. 'Hindustan Hamare BAAP ka hai (India belongs to our fathers),' the singer shared while posting the video. Amid Bajrang Dal protests demanding that Diljit's Indore concert in December be cancelled, the singer dedicated his concert to Urdu poet Rahat Indori. In response to the protests, the singer invoked his ghazal Kisi ke baap ka Hindustan thodi hai (Hindustan isn't anyone's property) at his Dil-Luminati tour concert. The ghazal goes: 'Agar khilaaf hain hone do, Jaan thodi hai. Ye sab dhua hai asmaan thodi hai. sabhi ka khoon hai shaamil yahan ki mitti mein/ kisi ke baap ka Hindustan thodi hai (If they oppose, let them, it's not life at stake. This is just smoke, not the sky at stake. This land has seen sacrifices from everyone/ Hindustan is not anyone's property)'. Diljit slammed for Sardaar Ji 3 Diljit Dosanjh is at the centre of a heated controversy due to the inclusion of Pakistani actor Hania Aamir in Sardaar Ji 3 alongside Diljit and Neeru Bajwa. Despite the backlash, the film made its overseas debut on June 27, although it won't be hitting theatres in India. The trailer release of Diljit's film sparked outrage, with some demanding a ban on Diljit and his future projects in India. The All Indian Cine Workers Association (AICWA) and Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) have called for a ban on Diljit and all his upcoming projects. The stir comes in the wake of the recent Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, followed by India's Operation Sindoor on May 7, in which air strikes were carried out on terror bases in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
