Her Ex is Coming to the Wedding
Lauren Sánchez is getting married to Jeff Bezos, the Amazon founder, in Venice, Italy. But what surprised many is who will be there—her ex-boyfriend Tony Gonzalez.
Tony is not coming alone. He is attending with his wife, October “Tobie” Gonzalez. The couple is already in Europe, sharing Instagram stories about their fun trip through Rome and Tuscany.
Even though they broke up many years ago, Sánchez and Tony share a son named Nikko. He is now 24 years old. They had him in 2001, just one year before they ended their relationship.
From Friction to Friendship
Today, Lauren is very close to both Tony and his wife. In fact, she calls them her “best friends.” She even invited Tobie to her bachelorette party in Paris last month.
Lauren once said there used to be problems between them. But now, they are all very friendly. She shared in a 2023 interview that things didn’t start well, but they worked through it.
Lauren also has two other children, Evan (19) and Ella (17), with her ex-husband Patrick Whitesell. However, Patrick will not be attending her wedding to Jeff Bezos.
A Star-Studded Italian Wedding
Sánchez and Bezos began dating in 2019. After nearly five years together, Jeff finally proposed.
This week, they are celebrating their wedding in Venice. They even had a big foam party on Jeff’s superyacht, which costs around $500 million!
Big stars like Kim Kardashian and Orlando Bloom are also invited. The event is expected to be one of the most glamorous weddings of the year.
Even though some people have protested the wedding in Venice, the couple is moving forward happily.
