When Jeff Bezos got married for the first time, he was a self-described nerd who didn’t think a prenup was all that important as he was years away from building his Amazon empire into the global force it is today.
A total of $38 billion in divorce settlement funds later, he will probably take a valuable lesson learned from his marriage to ex-wife MacKenzie Scott and apply it to the new journey he is embarking on with the lovely and glamorous Lauren Sanchez, his fiancé who said, “I do” when Jeff wowed her with a 20-carat engagement ring worth roughly $2.5 million.

Fast forward to 2023 and Bezos is worth $138 billion, so you can be darn sure his team is making sure he holds on to the majority of that fortune if something went haywire in marriage No. 2.
Here’s the difference between Jeff’s ex and his current love; Sanchez is successful and has substantial assets that she will also want to protect.
When you are the second-richest person in the world, it’s staggering trying to comprehend that kind of wealth. Bezos’ real estate portfolio alone is valued at over $500 million. His home in Beverly Hills is worth close to $200 million, he’s the sole owner of the Washington Post, and he’s been sailing throughout Europe the past two months in his brand new yacht worth half a billion.
Sanchez has her own multi-million assets, including a $6.2 million home in Washington that she acquired after her divorce from WME co-CEO Patrick Whitesell.
While MacKenzie Scott makes headlines for handing out million-dollar fortunes to random girl scout groups and obscure non-profits from coast-to-coast intent on giving her billions away, the world’s top power couple is most likely looking at every possibility they have at their disposal to hold on to their empires.
