Lauren Sánchez's net worth: A look at her wealth as she marries Jeff Bezos
Before Lauren Sánchez met Jeff Bezos, she already had a career as a TV reporter, helicopter pilot, and occasional actress. She dated an NFL player, married a talent agent, and lived in a multimillion-dollar Beverly Hills mansion. But Sánchez's fortune completely changed when she was introduced to Amazon's founder, Jeff Bezos. While the exact date of their first meeting isn't clear, they were known to run into each other at Hollywood events, and their casual friendship quickly blossomed into romance-even though they were married to other people. After the couple's scandalous debut (and their respective divorces) in 2019, Sánchez and Bezos embarked on a very public relationship that put their wealth on ostentatious display. They were often seen in the front row at fashion shows, attending the Met Gala in 2024, and partying with A-list friends like Katy Perry, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kim Kardashian, and Kris Jenner. Sánchez was photographed wearing expensive jewelry gifted from Bezos, and she frequently posted on social media about their lavish vacations aboard Bezos' $500 million superyacht, "Koru." In fact, that's where Bezos proposed to Sánchez in May 2023, leaving a brilliant 30-carat pink diamond ring under her pillow. The brilliant, cushion-cut gem, set in a platinum band, is estimated to be worth between $3 and $5 million, leaving little to wonder about why Sánchez "blacked out a bit" when she discovered it. But ever since Sánchez said "100% yes" to becoming Mrs. Jeff Bezos, the media frenzy has only intensified. After false reports of a winter wedding in Aspen, the setting of their impending nuptials has been narrowed down to Venice, Italy, with an estimated date of June 27, 2025. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter The Mayor of Venice even released a statement dispelling some of the rumors, adding that there will only be 200 guests in attendance and that the couple promised that the event won't disturb the fragile city's historic architecture. But Sánchez has insisted that she's just "like every other bride," telling People she even "has a Pinterest board" for ideas as she plans what sounds like the wedding of every girl's dream: One with an unlimited budget. So, what's Lauren Sánchez's net worth? According to Celebrity Net Worth, Lauren Sánchez has an estimated net worth of $30 million in 2025. It's unclear how much of that she has made herself, since the website does not provide specifics on Sánchez's salary or career earnings. However, it does report that Sánchez's first husband, Patrick Whitesell, has a net worth "north of $300 million," due to his role as partner at WME, the William Morris Endeavor talent agency, which represents a roster of film stars, including Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Ryan Reynolds, and Denzel Washington. Related: Jeff Bezos' net worth: How Amazon's founder spends his billions WME also owns the Ultimate Fighting Championship, or UFC, a major global sports brand as well as the world's largest mixed martial arts organization. UFC events are watched by millions of people on pay-per-view streaming channels, so you can see how Whitesell amassed such wealth. People reported that when Sánchez and Whitesell divorced in 2019, they divided up their property according to the prenuptial agreement they had in place. Since Sánchez already seems to be familiar with prenups, she may not have had an issue signing one with Bezos. According to Evolve Media, Bezos has a "watertight" prenup in place ahead of his wedding to Sánchez. Evolve cited a source by a Hollywood attorney named Alphonse Provinziano, who leaked details of their agreement to the media, comparing its complexity to a "business merger," and stating that it would "survive any legal challenge." Provinziano went on to say that Bezos made the resources of a legal team available to Sánchez so that she could understand the "complex accounting arrangements and business deals he's involved in," in the hopes that, should they divorce in the future, she would be unable to claim that "he hid certain assets from her." On December 19, 1969, Lauren Wendy Sánchez was born. Both of her parents were pilots. Her father, Ray Sánchez, later became a businessman in the aviation industry, while her mother, Eleanor, was also Los Angeles' former Assistant Deputy Mayor. Sánchez is a third-generation Mexican American, and she was born and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico. As a cheerleader at Del Norte High School, Sánchez struggled in school. She graduated in 1987 and went on to study acting and speech at the University of New Mexico before moving to California and transferring to El Camino College. There, a professor diagnosed Sánchez as dyslexic, giving her a pocket dictionary as a tool to aid her writing. "It changed my life," she later told The Daily Mail, "I went from barely a 2.0 student to the dean's list and got a scholarship to USC." Sánchez majored in communications at USC, and while in college, she interned at Los Angeles' TV station KCOP-TV. In 1994, she was offered a full-time job as a reporter at KTVK in Phoenix, Arizona, and her career began. Related: Who is Mark Zuckerberg's wife? Everything to know about Priscilla Chan The 5'3" reporter next had a stint as an entertainment reporter on the syndicated entertainment news show "Extra." She later co-hosted "Good Day LA" and was also an anchor on "Fox 11 News at Ten." But entertainment wasn't her only interest. As an avid sports fan, Sánchez also held jobs as an anchor and correspondent for Fox Sports Net. She received an Emmy nomination for the sports talk show "Going Deep" and was a reporter on "The Best Damn Sports Show Period." Sánchez didn't only work as a reporter on TV; she also appeared in films as one, too. Her credits include small parts in 1999's "Fight Club" starring Brad Pitt; 2005's "Fantastic Four," "Akeelah and the Bee" (2006), "College Road Trip" (2008), and "Ted 2" (2015), to name a few. In 2000, Sánchez auditioned for a co-hosting seat on "The View," but ultimately lost out to journalist Lisa Ling. Although she was crushed, Sánchez later revealed that she did take a valuable lesson from the experience-from none other than Barbara Walters herself. The veteran broadcaster noticed that Sánchez had traded her usually glamorous, form-fitting attire for a more conservative look, and asked her what she was thinking. Sánchez recounted Walters' advice to her, saying "If you're going to go down, go down as yourself. Because if you don't go down as yourself, you're going to beat yourself up twice." In 2005, Sánchez was offered the chance to host the popular FOX show "So You Think You Can Dance?," although she left after one season to focus on her children. In 2009, in celebration of her 40th birthday, Sánchez made a career pivot and obtained her helicopter pilot's license. In 2016, she founded Black Ops Aviation, the first woman-owned aerial film and production company. In 2018, Bezos' aerospace company, Blue Origin, hired Black Ops Aviation to film footage of its space travel adventures, although the two were rumored to have met a few years earlier, possibly as early as 2016, at an Amazon Studios party for the film "Manchester by the Sea." Lauren Sánchez has been in the news a lot recently-and not just for her highly anticipated wedding. Why did Lauren Sánchez go to space? On April 14, 2025, Sánchez led an all-female crew on a 10-minute suborbital space flight aboard Blue Origin's NS-31 self-flying rocket. The crew, which reached an altitude of 65 miles above the Earth, consisted of Sánchez, former NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen, film producer Kerianne Flynn, TV personality Gayle King, and pop star Katy Perry, received widespread media attention-although little of it was positive. Critics decried the move as little more than a vanity project for a billionaire and his girlfriend-tone-deaf at a time of widespread economic disparity-and memes and parodies on social media were quick to follow. Why was Lauren Sánchez at the Presidential Inauguration? On January 20, 2025, Sánchez appeared alongside her boyfriend at the Inauguration of President Donald Trump. They were part of a group of billionaires known as the "New Oligarchs," which included Apple's CEO Tim Cook, Alphabet's CEO Sundar Pichai, and Tesla's CEO Elon Musk. Trump had offered them seats of honor-in front of his own cabinet picks, which was seen by many as controversial. But Sánchez's outfit ruffled even more feathers, since she chose to wear a cleavage-baring white corset with a suit jacket to what is normally viewed as a conservative political occasion. More on wealth: Elon Musk's net worth: Inching toward trillionaire statusMark Zuckerberg's net worth: What the Facebook founder makes as CEO of MetaTim Cook's net worth: How much the Apple CEO's stock is worth Sánchez favors form-fitting designer clothing that showcases her curves. As a natural beauty who participated in beauty pageants as a teenager, she was later named one of "People's Most Beautiful" in 2010 and appeared in US Weekly's "Hot Bodies" issue. But in recent years, Sánchez has been criticized for her increasingly plasticized appearance, and many believe she's had breast implants and lip injections, although she has neither publicly confirmed nor denied the procedures. Her lips, which seem to inflate with Amazon's earnings, have been particularly scrutinized-leading people to ask Google, "Can Lauren Sánchez close her mouth?" Sánchez has been engaged numerous times, accepting rings from the late sports broadcaster Rory Markas and Baltimore Ravens' wide receiver Anthony Miller. In addition, she and Kansas City Chiefs' tight end Tony Gonzalez had a four-year relationship that ended in 2002; in 2001, she gave birth to his son, Nikko. They have maintained a friendly co-parenting relationship. Sánchez dated "NYPD Blue" actor Henry Simmons from 2002–2003. After saying "yes" to his marriage proposal, the couple owned a home in Manhattan Beach, Calif., before eventually breaking things off. Allegedly, Sánchez started seeing Patrick Whitesell while they were still living together. Sánchez and Whitesell met through mutual friends in 2005; their August wedding was a celebrity affair attended by Jennifer Garner, Jessica Alba, Hugh Jackman, and, of course, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. Sánchez and Whitesell had two children together, son Evan (born 2006) and daughter Eleanor (b. 2008), before filing for divorce in April 2019. Under the terms of their agreement, which was finalized that October, they share joint custody of both children. Another rumor going around contends that Whitesell himself may have introduced Sánchez to Bezos, as he had suggested that they "work together on a documentary." Sánchez and Whitesell bought a Beverly Hills mansion for $11 million in 2006. In 2017, they purchased an adjoining lot for $4.5 million; it had been owned by the late director Tony Scott. Fast forward to 2021, and Bezos and Sánchez were part of a private transaction that purchased a sprawling compound on the Hawaiian island of Maui for $78 million. In addition to a 4,500-square-foot home, the 14-acre spread includes a separate guesthouse, outdoor kitchen, pool, private beach, and expansive Pacific Ocean views. But Bezos and Sánchez's main residence is actually on the other side of the country, in the Sunshine State of Florida. The couple owns a series of properties in Miami's exclusive Indian Creek neighborhood, known as the Billionaire Bunker. Their three-mansion compound is worth a combined $238 million, and their neighbors include Tom Brady, Ivanka, and Jared Kushner. In April 2025, Bezos sold the home he had purchased after divorcing his first wife, Mackenzie Scott. The sprawling 9,420-square-foot abode sold for $63 million, making it the most expensive home ever sold in Washington state. Bezos is rumored to have relocated to Florida to avoid paying the capital gains tax.

Ultimate Glastonbury 2025 rich list reveals star worth jaw-dropping £220M…& singer who claims to make nothing from music
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THOUSANDS of fans are turning up in their droves (and their wellies) for the biggest music festival of the year. But although Glastonbury 2025 got off to a damp start yesterday, music lovers are set to enjoy rocketing temperatures when its dazzling line-up of headliners take to the stage this weekend. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 16 Appearing on the Pyramid stage is an iconic moment for music stars Credit: AP 16 Rod has admitted that playing Glastonbury will end up costing HIM money Credit: Reuters This year will see The 1975, Rod Stewart and Olivia Rodrigo take to the iconic Pyramid stage - with punters paying around £387.50 a ticket. Such is the prestige of Glasto that some acts agree to play there for a fraction of the fee they'd normally command. Bestival organiser Rob Da Bank previously revealed: 'Glastonbury is the one show that artists will play for free or for a reduced price. 'They cap their budget and even the headliners don't get paid more than 500 grand, I think, which is cheap for some of the headliners - and they've had a lot of them.' Though for many of this year's biggest acts, it's not about the money - as their healthy bank balances can afford to take the hit. Here we take a look at the eye-watering fortunes of this year's biggest names. Rod Stewart - £224million The Maggie May crooner, 80, is a festival veteran - and thanks to decades in the spotlight he's built up a pretty hefty fortune. He's estimated to have banked £224million, which is no surprise given Rod has sold more than 120 million records. Part of his huge wealth comes from selling his back catalogue in February last year for a staggering £72million. Rod, who's touring in the US, claims his Legends slot at Worthy Farm this year will actually see him lose money. The pint-sized Glastonbury with healing area and kid's zone He said: 'It was about eight months ago when I was asked to do it, maybe a little longer. But it didn't fit with my schedule because I've got to bring everybody back from America. 'It's going to cost me £300,000 to do it, and they only pay you about 120,000 quid. So it's going to cost me.' He later added that 'it doesn't matter' that he's having to splash his own cash for the show, as the kudos is worth it. Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts - £146.9m 16 Neil last played Glastonbury back in 2009 on the Pyramid stage Credit: Getty US rocker Neil, 79, is headlining the Pyramid stage with his band the Chrome Hearts on Saturday. His fortune is estimated to be around £146.9million according to Celebrity Net Worth. Like Sir Rod he made a wad of cash selling a chunk of his back catalogue for £109million. Neil last played Glastonbury back in 2009, also on the Pyramid Stage, but his return to the festival wasn't smooth. He previously threatened to pull out of the festival due to its BBC partnership feeling like 'a corporate turn-off' but was persuaded to stay on - though his performance won't be broadcast on the Beeb according to the channel's Glastonbury schedule. Nile Rodgers and Chic - £146.9m 16 Neil is adding to his fortune by developing a musical of the Blues Brothers Credit: Getty Blues legend Nile, 72, has also amassed a jaw-dropping £146.9m, reports Celeb Net Worth. And it's not surprising given he's sold more than 750 million albums and 100 million singles worldwide. Nile was also a member of English rock band The Honeydrippers and R&B group New York City, as well as the band Material - all of which will have bolstered his bank balance. Nile is currently working on a Blues Brothers musical set to launch on Broadway before coming to London's West End. A source told The Sun: 'Nile loves the film and jumped at the chance to get on board. 'The whole process is still in the very early stages so it won't be opening for a while but he has officially signed on to the project.' The Everybody Dance singer is also credited with turning queen of pop Madonna into an icon. John Fogerty - £80.8m 16 John made some of his cash renting out lavish properties in California Credit: Getty Best known as the lead singer of Creedence Clearwater Revival, John and his band are performing together for the first time since 2007 at this year's festival. John's music success is believed to have netted him £80.8m - thanks to hit songs like Susie Q, Have you Ever Seen the Rain and Fortunate Son. Outside of his music earnings he's invested heavily in property - one of which in California sold for $20million in 2023, netting more than $11m in profit. Alanis Morissette - £44m 16 Alanis has a huge fortune, despite a business manager stealing from her Credit: Getty Canadian singer Alanis, 51, is the richest woman playing Glastonbury this year, with an estimated fortune of £44million. The Alt-Rock queen rose to stardom with her 1995 album Jagged Little Pill when she was jut 21. But it wasn't an easy road, as she had to deal with rampant sexism. She told The Guardian: 'What I found in terms of the lovely patriarchy, was that at that time if men couldn't f*** me, they didn't know what to do with me.' Most of her earnings come from her 75 million albums sold across the globe. In 2017 she sued her former business manager for stealing $5million from her over seven years. Like John Fogerty, Alanis has also invested in several properties, all of which sold for millions more than she paid for them. Olivia Rodrigo £18.3m 16 Former Disney child actor Olivia wants to be known for her songwriting not singing Credit: Getty Disney child star Olivia is only 22, but she's already sitting on an incredible £18.3m fortune, according to Celeb Net Worth. The Driver's Licence singer is thought to have earned up to £14,563 per episode for her role on High School Musical: The Musical—The Series. She's sold more than four million albums across the UK and USA, plus her two world tours which will have bolstered her accounts. Reacting to her headline slot at Glastonbury, Olivia posted on Instagram: 'Can't think of anything more exciting than headlining Glastonbury but being in the NYT crossword is pretty close.' She previously admitted she wants to be known as a songwriter rather than "the biggest pop star that ever lived", adding: "I worked my whole childhood, and I'm never going to get it back." Danny O'Donoghue, The Script - £11.7m 16 The Script members have made millions over the years Credit: Getty The Script are returning to Glastonbury for the second time and have this time made it to the main Pyramid Stage. Reflecting on the band's journey, Danny told Hot Press: 'It was the story of rags to riches for us. Going from not having two pennies to rub together, to playing Croke Park.' Lead singer Danny is estimated to be worth £11,7million thanks to the band and his TV projects. He is believed to have been paid a whopping £100,000 per series for appearing on BBC's The Voice as a judge. Danny has also taken a share of the profits from The Script, which has sold more than 20million albums. Meanwhile the band's former guitarist Mark Sheenan left £9.4million to his family after his tragic death aged 46 in 2003. Matty Healy, The 1975 - £11m 16 Matty is known for his controversial quips on stage Credit: Getty The 1975 will be playing Glastonbury for the first time this year after years of trying to make it happen. Lead singer Matty, 36, is thought to be worth £11million thanks to the band's huge success. The Manchester-based group are best know for their hits Somebody Else and Robbers, and have sold over two million albums worldwide. Brandi Carlile - £8m 16 Brandi has won six Emmy awards for her music Credit: Getty American rocker Brandi has said playing at Worthy Farm is a dream come true for her. Estimated to be worth £8million, Brandi has been nominated 18 times for a Grammy and taken home six of the prestigious awards. While she is traditionally a solo singer, she did form a county supergroup in 2019 with Amanda Shires and Maren Morris called Highwomen. Ricky Wilson, Kaiser Chiefs - £7.3m 16 Ricky attends the festival when he's not performing as he loves it that much Credit: Getty The Kaiser Chiefs are back at Glastonbury for a fourth time this year, after making their debut in 2005. Frontman Ricky, 47, is understood to have netted himself a fortune of £7.3million thanks to the band's success and his work as a judge on The Voice. He previously claimed he'd only return to the ITV talent show if they offered him a £1million pay cheque. Even when not preforming, Ricky is a huge fan of the festival. He said on Virgin Radio: 'I stayed there for three days and had the best three days of my life.' Raye - £5.2m 16 Raye smashed the Brits record for the number of awards taken home in one night Credit: Getty British pop star Raye, 27, is returning to the Pyramid stage after her debut performance two years ago. Since rising to fame she's thought to be worth around £5.2million -but claimed last year she makes no money from her album sales as she was only breaking even. Her earnings will no doubt be bolstered by her work as a songwriter, with the likes of Little Mix and Ellie Goulding having recorded songs she penned. At last year's Brit Awards Raye smashed records for the most awards taken home in one night with her six. Simon Neil, Biffy Clyro - £2.9m 16 Biffy Clyro are no strangers to performing at the iconic festival Credit: Getty Scottish band Biffy Clyro, made up of Simon Neil and twins James and Ben Johnston, are back for their fifth time at Glastonbury. Frontman Simon, 45, is estimated to be worth just shy of £3million from their success across the globe. And they're cashing in on the festival as they've just announced their new album Futique. Given they've sold millions of albums worldwide, this latest drop is sure to be a success. Pete Doherty, The Libertines - £1.05m 16 Pete has managed to claw back some of his fortune after years of partying Credit: Getty They opened the festival in 2022, and now The Libertines are back at Glastonbury, following their UK tour last year. Frontman Pete, 46, who now lives in France with wife Katia and their daughter, also played the festival in 2005 with his band Babyshambles. He is estimated to be worth around £1.05m by the Daily Mail, despite his money troubles. In an interview with The Guardian last year, Pete admitted he still had debts to pay with the money from the new album. He said: "For me, there are tax bills from 15 years ago. Also, every time I think I've made a bit of bunce, it's gone immediately.' 16 Pete attended the festival with Kate Moss long before he performed there Credit: Getty
