In a recent Vogue article published on Monday, Lauren Sanchez, the renowned broadcast journalist-turned-helicopter pilot, revealed the heartwarming story behind her engagement to billionaire Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon.

According to Sanchez, Bezos surprised her earlier this year by secretly placing the engagement ring under her pillow after an intimate dinner. The unsuspecting Sanchez discovered the ring at bedtime, without any makeup on. Overwhelmed with emotion, she admitted to Vogue, "When he opened the box, I think I blacked out a bit."

The news of their engagement became public in May, but their relationship had come under the spotlight in January 2019 when The National Enquirer leaked messages exchanged between them. This revelation followed shortly after Bezos announced his divorce from ex-wife MacKenzie Scott.

In recent years, Bezos and Sanchez have intertwined their professional lives as well. Sanchez currently holds the position of vice chair at the Bezos Earth Fund, a monumental $10 billion initiative dedicated to combating climate change. Furthermore, Sanchez's aerial production company is responsible for shooting promotional material for Bezos' aerospace company, Blue Origin. Sanchez herself has even expressed her plans to lead an all-woman mission with Blue Origin next year.

Looking ahead, Sanchez joyfully shared with Vogue her enthusiasm about becoming "Mrs. Bezos." The power couple continues to make strides in their respective fields, both individually and as a united force committed to making a positive impact on the world.
