Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos are making the most of a sojourn to New York City, not only getting in several work events while at it, but also bringing the family along for the ride.
Jeff, 60, and Lauren, 54, have been spotted at several charity events as part of their work with the Bezos Earth Fund, with the latter also busy promoting her new children’s book, The Fly Who Flew to Space.
Most recently, Lauren took to social media to share how she was spending her downtime with her children, with the mom-of-three sharing son Nikko Gonzalez with ex Tony Gonzalez, and kids Evan and Ella Whitesell with ex-husband Patrick Whitesell.
She posted a sun-soaked photograph of her strapping sons Evan, 18, and Nikko, 23, walking the streets of NYC with some of their friends, sweetly captioning it: “New York with my boys,” showcasing also the close bond that the half-brothers possess.
Just the night before, it was date night for Lauren and Jeff as they attended the opening night of the new Broadway sensation Sunset BLVD, starring Nicole Scherzinger, joining other A-list attendees like Jessica Chastain plus Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos.
The journalist and former TV anchor chose to rock the premiere in a stunning and bold velvet jumpsuit in a dark mauve, sharing a glimpse of it on Instagram, paired with sleek hair and a dazzling diamond cross necklace.
“Date night opening night for Sunset Blvd,” she simply captioned the snap, receiving sweet comments from famous friends like Paris Hilton, Lisa Rinna and Jewel.

“I’ve had this idea for a long time,” she told the publication of her book, inspired by her personal struggles with dyslexia up until she went to college. “But it was a little bit different when I envisioned it all those years ago.”

She spoke with her kids that same night about the fly in her helicopter. “Wouldn’t this be a great children’s book? The fly could see all of these incredible places when it’s up in the helicopter with me,” she recalled, which served as the launching point for her debut children’s book, which finally hit shelves on September 17.
