10 Pics That Make Lauren Sánchez & Jeff Bezos' Age Gap Seem Bigger Than It Is
Having a partner who is considerably older or younger can be a double-edged sword. According to some celebrity couples with large age gaps, their differences in age can create sparks and a unique dynamic that works for them, but can also cause problems that may be difficult to overcome. For instance, Hilaria Baldwin shared in a 2025 interview on "Uncut & Uncensored" that while her and Alec Baldwin's 26-year age difference is " sometimes ... a flex," they've also had to "do a little therapy" when the issues caused by a generation gap threatened to ruin their marriage. Fortunately, Lauren Sánchez and her husband, Jeff Bezos, don't have to worry about such pitfalls.
The former journalist, who was born in December 1969, is just six years younger than the Amazon founder, so while Sánchez and Bezos' relationship does have several red flags, a massive age difference isn't one of them. The fact that they're relatively close in age and that they started dating when they were around their 50s and already had established careers could be among the key reasons why Sánchez and Bezos seem to be so compatible in personality, habits, and interests. As Sánchez shared with The Wall Street Journal in 2023, "We love to be together and we love to work together. We fly together. We work out together. We're together all the time." But while having six years between them is negligible in the grand scheme of things, it is, after all, still an age gap and can become obvious in certain moments, even for a couple as in tune with each other as Sánchez and Bezos.
Sánchez and Bezos' styles make them seem like they're from different generations
While six years isn't a generational gap, Lauren Sánchez's habit of sporting millennial and Gen-Z styles during her outings with Jeff Bezos often makes it seem like it is. Case in point, the then-54-year-old looked like she took fashion inspiration from Gen-Zers when she strutted into a McLaren F1 team practice in Miami in May 2023 rocking a barely-there crop top and wide-leg jeans. Meanwhile, Bezos, who rarely strays from practical and comfortable looks, can't shake off that Gen X energy like his wife can.
Bezos' Santa Clause impression aged him up by decades
Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos live an incredibly lavish life, so we weren't surprised they returned to Aspen, Colorado, for the holidays in 2025. However, Bezos did do something different for their second year in a row there. Instead of his usual clean-shaven look, Bezos sported a white-and-gray beard, not unlike our favorite Christmas icon. While we can't knock him for getting into the holiday spirit, the facial hair made him look two decades older than Sánchez, whose modest outfit showed off her stunning figure and snatched waist.
Bezos' parental vibes were strong during their vacation in Italy in 2022
Jeff Bezos has four children from his previous marriage with his ex-wife, MacKenzie Scott, but it almost seemed like he had another daughter when he and then-girlfriend Lauren Sánchez went sightseeing in Rome, Italy, in October 2022. A photo captured Sánchez in high spirits as she stopped to wave enthusiastically at someone behind them. Meanwhile, the tech mogul ignored the commotion and was only focused on their exploration of the Colosseum, very much giving "dad who wants to stick to the schedule" vibes.
Sánchez might need to give her hubby tips on flattering outfits
While on a summer getaway in 2023, Lauren Sánchez showed off Jeff Bezos' shredded beach bod on Instagram by sharing now-deleted shirtless photos of him (via Page Six). However, his toned physique was nowhere to be found when the couple was photographed enjoying a stroll in Italy earlier that summer. While Sánchez looked 54 going on 34 in a black workout set, Bezos' boring and unflattering T-shirt and cargo pants did his physique zero justice, making them seem like they were further apart in age than they actually were.
Bezos' dad sneakers failed to bridge their age gap
In another case of their drastically different styles putting their age difference on blast, Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos gave divorced dad and his controversially young girlfriend energy when they attended the F1 Grand Prix in May 2025. The then 61-year-old billionaire dressed his age in a navy polo shirt, a tight pair of white jeans, and matching dad sneakers. On the other hand, his wife, whose outfits typically range only from figure-hugging to skin-baring, rocked a sultry sheer black dress with thin straps and mesh panels.
Sánchez and Bezos wore silk very differently during a 2025 date night
Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos coordinated in silk outfits for a date night in New York City in 2025, but their vibes didn't exactly match. Sánchez looked very much in her prime in a sultry cream dress, which she paired with a brown jacket and clear heels. Meanwhile, her husband, who sported a shiny dark-blue suit and a scruffy white beard, seemed like he'd stayed up past his bedtime to go bust out some moves at the disco.
Sánchez showed off her edgier side at a fashion show, while Bezos stayed boring
Lauren Sánchez dared to be edgy when she and her husband, Jeff Bezos, attended a Versace runway show in March 2023. The former news anchor showed off her curves and toned gams in a black minidress featuring belt straps and buckles all over, pairing it with matching stockings and pumps. Though both of them went with all-black looks, Sánchez's outfit made Bezos look boring and old-fashioned in comparison, as he stayed within his comfort zone in a black blazer, T-shirt, and jeans.
Sánchez and Bezos had different energy levels at a 2025 Cannes gala
Lauren Sánchez revealed in her and Jeff Bezos' 2023 Vogue feature that her partner was the more extroverted and social one between them, describing him as "the life of the party" and "extremely enthusiastic and extremely funny." However, the billionaire's social battery might have run out a little earlier than the former journalist's when they attended the amfAR Gala Cannes 2025 in Cap d'Antibes, France. Bezos was snapped looking tired and ready to go home next to Sánchez, who still appeared fresh as a daisy.
Bezos' messy-looking beard didn't do him any favors at Paris Fashion Week
Lauren Sánchez was 55 years old but looked more like she was approaching her 40s rather than her 60s when she appeared at the Chanel runway show during Paris Fashion Week in October 2025. The glamorous former television host showed off her jaw-droppingly toned figure in a flattering black-and-white dress, and styled her glossy brunette hair in loose waves. Her husband, Jeff Bezos, on the other hand, was 61 and looked every day of it, thanks to his scruffy gray facial hair and outdated sunglasses.
Sánchez and Bezos' body language read father-daughter at a 2025 Oscar afterparty
Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos have never been shy about expressing their love for each other in public, whether it's hugging, kissing or much steamier PDA. However, while they're usually unmistakably a couple, they seemed more like father and daughter when they posed for photos at Vanity Fair's annual Oscars after-party in March 2025. Judging by their body language in the pictures above, we'd probably believe it if someone said this was wholesome moment when a celebrity brought their sweet dad as their date to an award ceremony.
