Lauren Sanchez’s wedding to Jeff Bezos has been the talk of the town this week, with friends and family showering them with love and support. However, not everyone is impressed with the extravagant affair, as Katie Couric recently threw shade at Lauren’s Vogue cover, criticizing her choice of wedding dress.
In a comment on a post shared by Jack Schlossberg, Katie wrote, “Welcome to the eighties—when big hair and conspicuous consumption ruled. Apparently tacky is back.” This harsh criticism has certainly raised eyebrows, especially considering how excited Lauren was about her dress in her Vogue profile.
The dress in question is a stunning Dolce & Gabbana gown, featuring a high-necked, hand-appliquéd Italian lace. It was the first evening dress Lauren had ever worn that covered her cleavage, and she described it as “so elegant, it’s timeless.” Despite her enthusiasm, Katie’s comment has cast a shadow over what was supposed to be a joyous occasion.
The wedding took place on San Grigorio Maggiore, an island in Venice, with a star-studded guest list that included Sydney Sweeney, Orlando Bloom, Oprah, Tom Brady, Gayle King, Usher, Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, and Kendall Jenner. However, the event was not without controversy, as it also attracted numerous protesters.
Katie’s lack of support for Lauren and Jeff is evident, and it seems unlikely that she will be receiving an invite to any future vow renewals. We have reached out to representatives for both Lauren and Katie for comment, but have yet to receive a response.
Overall, the wedding of Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos has been a spectacle to behold, with both lavish celebrations and unexpected criticism. Only time will tell how this high-profile couple navigates the ups and downs of married life in the public eye.
