Billionaire Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez pack on the PDA during their Never Ending Summer: Newly-engaged pair are inseparable during week six of their Mediterranean odyssey on Amazon founder’s $500million luxury mega-yacht Koru
- The pair were seen stopping off for a sunset on Sainte Marguerite island, France
Jeff Bezos and his fiancée Lauren Sanchez were seen packing on the PDA as they continue their never-ending summer, sailing on their superyacht through Europe.
The pair who have been travelling through the Mediterranean since May 15, on the Amazon founders $500 million superyacht Koru, were seen laughing as they stopped off in Cannes, France.
They were later spotted holding hands as they enjoyed a sunset hike on the nearby Sainte Marguerite island.
In one photo Sanchez, 53, dressed in a sporty monochrome outfit with a black cap, can be seen affectionately hugging the billionaire, 59, who wore a simple black t-shirt and swim trunks, from behind, as they walked off the huge boat.
The stop-off in the South of France is just the latest in a long list of idyllic and luxurious locations the couple, who became engaged in July, have visited on their summer break.

The pair have already been seen sauntering around France, Italy, Mallorca and Spain.
Last week, they enjoyed a quiet dinner with respective children in the picturesque fishing village Portofino on the Italian Riviera.
The former news anchor stunned in a strapless Mirae dress with a butterfly print and an asymmetrical hem, while Bexos opted for a navy T-shirt with cream pants and sneakers.
The loved-up pair sat with Sanchez's two teenage children, whom she shares with her ex-husband, Patrick Whitesell. She also has a 22-year-old son, Nikko Gonzales, with her former NFL star ex Tony Gonzales.
Another teenage, believed to be one of the billionaire's younger sons, also joined them.
Bezos has four children with his ex-wife, MacKenzie Scott. Their oldest son, Preston Bezos, was born in 2000, and they also have two younger sons and a daughter they adopted from China.
It is unclear when exactly the Amazon boss and Emmy Award winning journalist first got together but their affair was first exposed in the National Enquirer in January 2019.
Soon after Scott filed for divorce following more than 25 years of marriage. After their split Scott became one of the richest women in the world with a 4 per cent stake in Amazon.

Sanchez was also still with her husband Whitesell when her relationship with Bezos was outed.
It then emerged that Whitesell, who is executive chairman of Endeavor, the parent company of talent agency William Morris Endeavor Entertainment (WME), had introduced the pair.
Both divorces were finalized in April 2019, with the couple making their first public appearance the following month before jetting off to St Barts.
As the third richest man in the world, Bezos is no stranger to lavish summer vacations and their current jaunt around Europe appears no different.
At 417 ft long and 230ft tall, Koru is one of the world's largest sailing yachts complete with 250 ft support vessel that boasts its own helipad.
A myriad of guests have joined the couple, with some being seen jumping off the huge vessel.
Last month their engagement was confirmed when photos emerged of the pair kissing and canoodling on the boat, with Sanchez wearing a huge gemstone ring on her finger - sparkling proof she said yes.
He is thought to have proposed while they were off the coast of Cannes.

The Koru is the second largest sailing ship in the world, surpassed only by the Philippe Starcke-designed Sailing Yacht A, which is owned by Russian fertilizer billionaire Andrey Melnichenko
The yacht is named Koru after the Maori word for 'new beginnings,' comes more than five years after it was commissioned, finally being handed over to Bezos in April after being trialed on the sea.
Known then as 'Project 721,' the ship was built in the historic port of Zwijndrecht, close to Rotterdam in the Netherlands, by sailboat specialists Oceanco.
Previous designs include the 350-foot Black Pearl, an all-black aluminum sailing yacht designed for Russian billionaire Oleg Burlakov, who died of Covid in 2021 and whose family still owns the ship.
The Koru is the second largest sailing ship in the world, surpassed only by the Philippe Starcke-designed Sailing Yacht A, which is owned by Russian fertilizer billionaire Andrey Melnichenko.
Bezos may have been paying homage to Sanchez when he designed the megayacht, which features a wooden sculpture of a Roman goddess carved into the ship's bow that looks strikingly similar to his bride-to-be.
It is unclear when the gold-burnished sculpture became part of the vessel's design, but it was commissioned in 2018, a year before their affair was exposed.
