Jeff Bezos, Lauren Sanchez slam report of $600 million lavish Aspen wedding: ‘None of this is happening’ | Trending

Bezos was adding to a comment by investor Bill Ackman who said the reports were not credible “unless you are buying each of your guests a house, you can’t spend this much money.”

“Furthermore, this whole thing is completely false — none of this is happening. The old adage “don’t believe everything you read” is even more true today than it ever has been. Now lies can get ALL the way around the world before the truth can get its pants on,” he said in the post and asked users to be careful and not be gullible.

Take a look at the post here:

Lauren Sanchez also shared the post by Bezos on her Instagram stories and added the words “not true” over it.

What did the reports claim?

Reports by Daily Mail and the New York Post had claimed that the couple were set to tie the knot in a lavish Aspen, Colorado wedding and had chosen Matsuhisa, a posh sushi restaurant, as the venue for their winter wonderland-themed celebration.

The reports also claimed that the luxury restaurant had been exclusively reserved from December 26 to 27 for the wedding and will host around 180 guests. It said the event will be as extravagant as the couple’s engagement celebrations in Positano, Italy, in 2023 which was attended by high-profile guests such as Bill Gates, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Queen Rania of Jordan.
