Insider reached out to spokespeople for the reported party guests for further comment but didn’t hear back ahead of publication.

Bezos’s relationship with Sanchez went public in 2019, shortly after his ex-wife Mackenzie Scott, announced she and Bezos were getting divorced. Scott’s marriage to Bezos lasted 25 years and they have four children together. 

Sanchez, founder of aerial film production company Black Ops Aviation, was a news anchor for Good Day LA and has appeared in several tv shows and movies, including a small role in “Fight Club.” Sanchez and Bezos reportedly got engaged in May after dating for four years. 

Bezos and Sanchez have been spending lots of time on their $500 million yacht, which first hit the seas in February. The couple has been photographed enjoying the yacht this summer, and Sanchez has also posted photos of Bezos enjoying the boat on her Instagram.
