It’s Jeff Bezos’ 60th birthday, and Lauren Sánchez has a very special message for him.

In honor of her fiancé’s milestone day, Sánchez posted a tribute to the Amazon founder on Instagram.

"Look who’s turning 60! Happy birthday, baby! 🎉 " Sánchez, 54, wrote. "Today is another day where your laughter fills our home, and that smile of yours lights up every room. Wishing you an abundance of simple joys and quiet moments of happiness."

Sánchez continued, "May this year be filled with everything you love, from peaceful mornings to joyous celebrations. I hope each day brings you countless reasons to smile, just like you give me a reason to smile every single day. Love you, and happy birthday, my love. ❤️🤍❤️"

Alongside her message, Sánchez shared a carousel of images, including a cute photo of a toddler-aged Bezos celebrating his birthday and a snap of the couple smiling at one another.

Since the news of their engagement last spring, the Emmy award-winning journalist and the billionaire have been steadily preparing for their upcoming wedding.

Bezos and Sánchez went public with their relationship in January 2019, shortly after Bezos announced his divorce from his wife of 25 years, MacKenzie Scott. Sánchez was also in the process of divorcing her then-husband of 13 years, Patrick Whitesell.

Last year, Sánchez marked her partner’s birthday on Instagram with a tribute that included several photos from the couple's relationship, including from their trips to Colombia and Rome.

In the caption, Sánchez called Bezos “the man of my dreams” and thanked him “for always being by my side and for being the most loving and supportive partner.” (Four months later, the couple got engaged!)

"I am so grateful for the memories we have made and the adventures yet to come," she added. "Here's to many more birthdays filled with love and laughter."

Sánchez shared a similar post for Bezos’ 58th birthday in 2022. "Yes everyone knows you are brilliant, but they don't always see your heart the way my eyes do," she wrote.

The couple’s romance has blossomed in the public eye. In an interview with WSJ. Magazine last year, Sánchez said she and Bezos “love to be together and we love to work together.”

Bezos got the chance to hype up his fiancée in an interview with Vogue in November 2023, highlighting her “amazing intuition” as well as her thoughtfulness. “She sees things that other people don’t see. She’s really very sensitive to other people and what they’re thinking,” he said at the time.

The Amazon founder also told Vogue that Sánchez has helped him “put more energy” into his personal relationships. “She’s always encouraging me: ‘Call your kids. Call your dad. Call your mom.’ And she’s also just a very good role model,” he added. “She keeps in touch with people.”
