Bezos, 58, and his girlfriend of three years, 52, looked like they were having a blast as they rode rides like Space Mountain, Toy Story Mania, and the Jungle Cruise at the California theme park, which is located in Anaheim.
The couple appeared in good spirits as they made their way through the Happiest Place on Earth, chatting and giggling together as Lauren clutched onto her beau’s arm.

Entertainment reporter Lauren kept it casual for the amusement park outing in a pair of blue skinny jeans, a white crop top, and sneakers. She paired the look with a blue Monsters University cap, seemingly bought at the park, and sunglasses.

Entertainment reporter Lauren kept it casual for the amusement park outing in a pair of blue skinny jeans, a white crop top, and sneakers. She paired the look with a blue Monsters University cap, seemingly bought at the park, and sunglasses.
The billionaire, for his part, donned tan khaki pants, a gray V-neck T-shirt, a cap, and shades.
The couple was seen riding on the high-speed rollercoaster Incredicoaster, as well as taking a front row seat on the boat ride the Jungle Cruise.
Lauren seemed a bit nervous during the initial launch on the coaster, which reaches speeds of 55 miles per hour, making it the fastest ride in the park, but it appeared that she enjoyed it and was seen grinning from ear to ear afterwards.
They also got soaked on the Grizzly River Run, enjoyed the thrill of Space Mountain, and went head to head on the ride Toy Story Mania, which involves using fake launches to shoot at screens in an attempt to see who finishes with the best score.
The pair hardly kept a low profile as they were accompanied by five bodyguards and two VIP tour guides.
It’s unclear when exactly Bezos and Sanchez first got together, but their affair was exposed by the National Enquirer in January 2019, while he was still married to his ex-wife, Mackenzie Scott.
Sanchez was also married when her relationship to Bezos was outed, and it was her husband – co-CEO of Hollywood powerhouse agency WME, Patrick Whitesell, 56 – who reportedly introduced the two lovers in the first place.
Bezos and Scott finalized their divorce in April 2019, which was the same month that Sanchez and Whitesell ended their marriage.
Bezos and Sanchez made their first public appearance together in May of that year, before jetting off to St. Barts for a romantic getaway.
They made their red carpet debut as a couple in January 2020, and have been happily in love ever since.
According to Disney’s website, VIP tours start at $2,975 and rise in price depending on add-ons like dining and other paid activities. It also doesn’t include theme park admission tickets which cost another $420 per person.
However, as one of the richest men in the world, it’s unlikely that Bezos – who is worth an estimated $133.2 billion – even paused to look at the prices

Bezos was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico, but grew up in Houston, Texas, and then Miami, Florida. He graduated from Princeton University in 1986.
He launched Amazon in 1994, which began as an online book store. He first became a billionaire in 1998, and has since increased his fortune by 12,425 per cent – now raking in more than $140,000 per minute.
He is now the third richest man in the world after Tesla owner Elon Musk and Bernard Arnault, who oversees an empire of 70 brands including Louis Vuitton and Sephora, according to Forbes.
He stepped down as CEO of Amazon last July to focus on his ‘other passions,’ including his spaceflight company Blue Origin, The Washington Post (which he purchased in 2013), and his biotech brand Altos Labs, among other things. He also started a venture capital called Bezos Expeditions.
