Bezos Gives Bride a $5m Pink Diamond

Jeff Bezos wed Lauren Sanchez in Venice

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos gave his new bride a pink 30-carat diamond engagement ring, valued at up to $5m.

He wed Lauren Sanchez in Venice, in a lavish three-day extravaganza (27 to 29 June) that reportedly cost $50m.

Bezos, worth an estimated $244bn, gave the ring to Sanchez, a journalist, philanthropist and helicopter pilot, when he proposed on his superyacht, Koru, two years ago.

The diamond, a cushion-cut pink diamond estimated to be about 30 carats, is set on a platinum band, secured by four prongs, with small stones set into the band and two pave halos. It was reportedly designed by US celebrity jeweler Lorraine Schwartz.

Experts put its value at $3m to $5m, depending on the exact specifications.

Sanchez reportedly wore an even larger white diamond at the wedding.

Bezos, aged 61, and Sanchez, 55, were both marrying for the second time.
