But this year, as her grown kids and distracted husband get swept up in their own seasonal dramas, they make one crucial mistake: they forget their mom. By the time they realize she's missing, Claire's already set off on a festive adventure of her own — one that doesn't involve cooking, cleaning, or coordinating anyone else's chaos. As her family scrambles to find her and salvage their Christmas, Claire rediscovers what the holidays mean when you're finally free to put yourself first.

These are the celebs who are attending Jeff Bezos' Venice wedding
VENICE, Italy (AP) — The Venice wedding bonanza of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Bezos reached its third and final day Saturday after the couple tied the knot a day earlier in front of around 200 celebrity guests in a secluded area of the lagoon city. Details of the much-anticipated wedding ceremony Friday night were kept tightly secret, until Sánchez Bezos posted to Instagram a photo of herself beaming in a white gown as she stood alongside a tuxedo-clad Bezos, the world's fourth-richest man. Athletes, celebrities, influencers and business leaders converged to revel in extravagance that was as much a testament to the couple's love as to their extraordinary wealth. A string of water taxis cut through the lagoon to bring Bezos, Sánchez Bezos and their guests to the tiny San Giorgio island, across the lagoon basin from St. Mark's Square, where the couple held their private ceremony. Paparazzi in their own boats followed close behind in a controlled chase, trying to capture the couple and their guests on camera, as police on personal watercraft patrolled a no-go zone. The celebrations are expected to end later Saturday with a large party in a former medieval shipyard, amid high security. Most guests arrived between Thursday and Friday. The star-studded list included names like Oprah Winfrey and NFL great Tom Brady. Here's a look at the who's who of the Bezos-Sánchez Bezos nuptials. The bride and groom are staying at the Aman Venice hotel on the Grand Canal, where the groom posed for photos and the bride blew kisses to the press. Ivanka Trump, her husband Jared Kushner and their three children arrived Wednesday. Other celebrities on the guest list include: — Queen Rania of Jordan arrived in Venice on Thursday for the wedding, but she wasn't accompanied by her spouse, King Abdullah II, the monarch of Jordan. — Kim Kardashian, her sister Khloé and mother Kris Jenner were seen arriving at the Madonna dell'Orto event Thursday evening. — Kylie and Kendall Jenner — Mick Jagger — Leonardo Di Caprio — Orlando Bloom — Bill Gates — Diane von Furstenberg and her husband Barry Diller — Usher — Jewel Kilcher — Sydney Sweeney The wedding has divided Venice, with some activists protesting it as an exploitation of the city by the billionaire Bezos while ordinary residents suffer from overtourism, high housing costs and the constant threat of climate-induced flooding. One group called Extinction Rebellion staged a small protest in St. Mark's Square on Thursday featuring a masked bride and groom and people holding posters decrying climate change and income inequalities. 'The planet is burning but don't worry, here's the list of the 27 dresses of Lauren Sánchez,' read one, a reference to the bride's reported wedding weekend wardrobe. Protesters said that their plans to disrupt the arrivals of guests at one of the wedding venues forced organizers to move the event to the more secure Arsenale area beyond Venice's congested center. The city administration has strongly defended the nuptials as in keeping with Venice's tradition as an open city that has welcomed popes, emperors and ordinary visitors alike for centuries. Bezos donated 1 million euros ($1.17 million) each to three environmental research organizations working to preserve Venice, according to Corila, the Venetian environmental research association. ___ Nicole Winfield and Giada Zampano reported from Rome.

Lauren Sánchez Bezos ditches 'sexy' garb for Sophia Loren-inspired wedding dress
Lauren Sánchez Bezos ditched her typical "sexy" garb for a traditional Sophia Loren-inspired gown to tie the knot with billionaire Jeff Bezos. The Amazon founder and children's book author wed in Venice, Italy on Friday, June 27, and Sánchez Bezos wore a dress that mirrored iconic Italian actress Loren's look from the 1958 film "Houseboat." Loren starred in the beloved feature opposite Oscar nominee Cary Grant. Sánchez Bezos wore a Dolce & Gabbana silhouette dress with a high-neck, adorned with 180 silk chiffon-covered priest buttons paired with a tulle-and-lace veil, inspired by a similar veil that Loren wore in "Houseboat," according to a Vogue magazine exclusive. Jeff Bezos, Lauren Sánchez tie the knot in controversial wedding ceremony "It went from 'I want a simple, sexy modern dress' to 'I want something that evokes a moment,' and where I am right now. I am a different person than I was five years ago," she told Vogue. "I went into a lot of therapy, and it's changed me in a bunch of ways. But it's really Jeff," she continued. "Jeff hasn't changed me. Jeff has revealed me. I feel safe. I feel seen. He lets me be me. Like I said about Sophia Loren being unapologetically free, he lets me be unapologetically free." Sánchez Bezos chose to imitate Loren for the occasion after she "researched pictures of brides in the 1950s" and "wanted to reflect back, and I saw Sophia Loren and her hands were" in a prayer position and "she was in high lace, up to the neck, and I said, 'That's it. That's the dress.'" The dress Sánchez Bezos wore for the fête was much anticipated because, at times, her tight, showy wardrobe has caused controversy. She wore a lingerie-inspired all-white look to President Donald Trump's second inauguration in January, which ignited both fierce criticism and applause. "It is a departure from what people expect. From what I expect, but it's very much me," the former "View" guest cohost told Vogue.
