Eva Longoria misses pal Lauren Sanchez's star-studded wedding
About 200 guests - including a whole host of A-list celebrities and tech moguls - attended Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez 's wedding earlier today.
Among them was Kim Kardashian, Oprah Winfrey, Tom Brady, Leonardo DiCaprio, Usher, and more.
But a few celebs were noticeably absent from the days-long festivities that the now-married couple hosted in Venice, Italy.
Eva Longoria, who has been friends with Sanchez for more than 20 years - and even attended the former journalist's Paris bachelorette party earlier this year - was one of the celebrities who did not end up attending the wedding.
Longoria was instead photographed on a beach in Spain (one of the countries her family splits its time in) just a few days prior to the wedding, and fans assumed she would be heading over to the festivities afterwards.
But, while Sanchez and Bezos were saying 'I do,' Longoria not only wasn't in attendance but she was also reposting Instagram Reels of people discussing mass deportations occurring in the U.S. and how the government is targeting Latino communities.
Longoria's lack of attendance comes as a surprise as she was gushing over the bride at her bachelorette party.
'I had to pop in and out, so I wasn't there as long,' she told People after the party.
'But yeah, it's so nice to celebrate love. It's just the best feeling in the world to be there and go, "Yay, love."'
Longoria and Sanchez both have Mexican roots, something the actress emphasized when once ironically saying, 'In the Mexican culture, we never miss a baptism, a birthday, a baby shower, a wedding shower, a wedding.
'You must show up. Otherwise, you'll be in big trouble.'
DailyMail.com has contacted Eva's representatives for comment.
But Eva wasn't the only no show among Sanchez's inner circle because Katy Perry, who was also in attendance at her bachelorette party, was another absentee.
Perry's absence comes in the midst of a newly-announced breakup between her and Orlando Bloom - though rumors had been swirling about the couple going through rough times for quite some time prior.
Perry and Bloom ended their relationship after being together for nine years. The ex-couple share four-year-old daughter Daisy Dove Bloom together.
Bloom did happen to go to the wedding though, and was photographed hugging and greeting Kim Kardashian - another one of Sanchez's bachelorette squad - upon her arrival to Venice.
Despite not attending, Perry showed her support to Sanchez by leaving a sweet message on her Instagram post sharing her wedding celebration outfit
Sanchez also sent a sweet message back, saying 'We miss you Katy'
While Longoria has not yet acknowledged her friend's wedding, Perry on the other hand did leave a sweet message on a picture Sanchez posted of one of her wedding looks.
'WAIT THIS IS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE LEWK,' Perry commented under the photo.
Sanchez had returned the favor, commenting on one of Perry's Instagram posts: 'We miss you, Katy.'
The now-Mrs.Bezos left that comment in the midst of the three-day long festivities, including a pre-wedding dinner.
Although it was revealed that the couple was already legally married, their wedding took place on June 27 and included live music by Matteo Bocelli.
Sanchez and her husband will conclude the rest of their wedding celebration on Saturday, June 28.

Patrick even offered a joyful wave for onlookers before he slipped into the ritzy restaurant. Wife Pia, who is considered one of the most beautiful women in Australia, also appeared content with her life of luxury on Friday. The former Home and Away star appeared unperturbed by the highly-publicised wedding happening between her husband's ex and Jeff this weekend. She was spotted going for a stroll in LA with a friend, flaunting her natural beauty as pouring her figure into skin-tight athleisure wear. The TV star and her wealthy husband appear to be enjoying the quiet life as Lauren and Jeff tie the knot in an ostentatious, three-day ceremony across the ocean in Italy. Lauren and Jeff made headlines six years ago when their illicit affair came to light, effectively ending two marriages – Lauren and Patrick, and Jeff and MacKenzie Scott. Now, Lauren has shared the first look at her stunning wedding dress from her and Jeff's $20 million Venetian wedding in front of their glamorous celebrity friends. The bride took to Instagram moments after saying 'I do' on Saturday to share a photo of the couple together, where she showed off her glamorous Dolce & Gabbana gown. Described as the 'wedding of a century', the Amazon founder and former journalist have welcomed nearly 200 VIPs to Venice for three days of lavish celebrations. The nuptials come two years after Jeff asked Lauren to marry him on his $500 million superyacht. Jeff and Lauren welcomed a slew of their famous friends to witness the nuptials, including Gayle King, Oprah Winfrey, Ivanka Trump, Orlando Bloom, and Usher. Leonardo DiCaprio, Sydney Sweeney, Tom Brady, Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Kendall Jenner, and Kylie Jenner, amongst others, also attended. The romantic ceremony took place on San Giorgio Maggiore island, and guests were treated to trumpets, violins and a Gospel Choir when they arrived. The festivities kicked off earlier in the week and the multi-day affair is said to have cost $20 million. Last night, as the couple enjoyed a pre-wedding party inside the historic Madonna dell'Orto cloisters, it was revealed Jeff and Lauren had already married legally. But the couple's lavish celebration has been far from plain sailing with a freak thunderstorm forcing guests to take cover during Thursday night's party. Protesters also planned to disrupt the celebrations and forced a late venue change. Determined not to let the disruptions dampen her day, Lauren has shared glimpses into her wedding preparations on Instagram. She revealed it took a massive team to get her into her stunning gown, with one photo showing her surrounded by seven people as she put on the Dolce & Gabbana dress. Two of them were seen adjusting the back of it while a third worked on the enormous train; the rest stood around the blushing bride. In the caption, she wrote: 'Not just a gown, a piece of poetry. Thank you @DolceGabbana for the magic you made.' Another image showed her standing in the gown, while a third featured a man helping her put her veil on. Lauren also posed in the exquisite wedding dress for a pre-wedding photoshoot with Vogue magazine. The former Home and Away star appeared unperturbed by the highly-publicised wedding happening between her husband's ex and Jeff this weekend While chatting with the publication, she recalled feeling like a 'princess' during her dress fitting, which took place in Milan. 'It was more powerful than I thought,' she added of the moment she put it on for the first time. She also revealed Jeff had begged to see her in the gown, but as is tradition for most brides, she explained she wasn't going to let him lay his eyes upon it until the big day. 'I almost gave in,' she admitted. 'But I want it to be a surprise. As you get a little older, not many things surprise you. I can't wait to see his face.' Lauren was quick to change her Instagram username to include her new name, swapping it to @laurensanchezbezos and wiping out all of her old posts. Just an hour later, she followed up with some behind-the-scenes snaps of her wedding gown. Guests at the luxurious wedding ceremony were greeted to the sounds of trumpets, violins and a Gospel Choir when they arrived. The choir also broke out into song again after the couple said 'I do', belting out Whitney Houston's Higher Love. Guests were heard cheering and singing along during the touching moment. Opera star Matteo Bocelli kicked off the couple's wedding reception, opening up his set with the iconic Elvis Presley track I Can't Help Falling in Love With You. The son of Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli was called in as his dad is performing in concerts in southern Italy this weekend and couldn't attend. Hours earlier, Lauren made her first appearance of the day when she was spotted leaving the five star Aman Hotel in a ladylike white Dior puff sleeve suit. The award-winning journalist paired it with a head scarf and oversized sunglasses. She also appeared to show off a brand new enormous diamond ring for the occasion. Jeff and Lauren are said to have rented out a number of places in Venice to celebrate the lavish nuptials. An insider told last week San Georgio Maggiore island is largely 'off-limits to visitors' from June 24 to June 29.

The making of the 'monster': Jack Draper left Chelsea's academy and told his parents he had to quit school before his relentless drive to the top... those who helped him get there reveal secrets behind his success
There's a fabulous, untold yarn about Jack Draper that tells us a little about his backhand and far more about his mind. It is also why the sharer of this tale uses 'savage' as a term of endearment. To get there, we must go back 13 years, to when Draper was 10 and his coach at the time felt a tweak was necessary.
